What board would you ride in these waves?
- Thread starter Retropete
- Start date
Wish the video showed people paddling in and actually dropping in rather than picking up at the bottom turn on every wave. Watching the video there is a wide variety of equipment in the water from kooky funboards to daily driver shortboards to gunny step ups. The only thing missing was a Ben Gravy foamy. (Obviously the Gravy model is a bad call here and you would need to step up to the Who is JOB model because it has real fins in it for real waves) I'm old and gray and a complete kook but if my son asked me what he should take out I'm telling him to take out a 6'2" Sharpeye 77+ or a 6'4 SG-1.
Probably something bigger than whatever dinky little sh!t they've got. Maybe my 6'8 tank or 7' carrera
Looks like fun!

just a normal 6'6" step up ghost style, glassed 6+4/6 with a 1/4 inch stringer
looked like a rising swell if the clips are arranged chronologically with the smaller ones being 1/3 the size of the later clips.

I suffered the same fate on those rocks. Miss the spot to paddle in and you are toast. I think I was on a 7'2" Wayne Lynch thruster. Surfed it about that same size, but that was 20 years ago.
Lot of nursed turns. Bigger boars would be better.
my 6/10 firewire Unibrow would do well there (me; IDK)...
if i was feeling bold i might use 4fins..

The only answer is mid length twin fin cause thats what torren rides
7-4 parmy. vector cuda. tri. stretch s2 fins
Coxos is a proper cheese grater.
I'd be on my 6'10 Webster Desert Storm, thank you very much!

Hard to tell exactly how big it is due to the angle of the shot and the fact that we have 5'2 Portuguese men for scale.

I own a 6'8" and a 6'10", figure wetsuit, moving water, kind of a lumpy looking wave, looks like getting in early and trying to set up a tricky tube is the go...
my thoughts exactly. surfed with a much smaller board yes, but carting around and getting in to what looks like mush wavter moving in many places....foam key
NOT what the shoulder hopper at 00:51 is riding.
Probably what I just made- the 6-11, 2+1. it would be perfect for those waves . In fact I still haven't given up hope for one more solid W/NW swell.
And it probably wouldn't snap either.
