What Campbell bros is Miley February Surfing?
- Thread starter manbearpig
- Start date
As I remember OT had me order a reverse T-band stringer. Dark wood down the center and blue HD foam on the outside. I added black glue because I thought the blue foam needed the outline/contrast. It looked good cut. And I heard it came out looking good. Hopefully OT is stoked.
Clicked on link and was also wondering if that was his board. Hope he's surfing heaps as last time I spoke with him his body was pushing back on him. Nice board.
nice boar! that pic makez me want 2 get a bonker!Bman76 said:Mine is 6'2. Such an excellent board - exactly as Maz described, works in many conditions. I rode it all last summer, which was by no means good waves most of the time. I've been out of the water three months and have many good boards on the racks, but this will be the one i will go to first.
What advantage do you think the PVC stringers have over wood, feel wise?i_shapes said:
I've been interested in ordering a board with one because of the consistency of the material vs. wood.

T&C had some Burford blanks with tiny revearse t- band stringers , the center black section was carbon fiber and the looked great .
They instantly dulled any blade in shaping them and were not made for very long .
Mid 90's Glen Minami's Blue Hawaii used white PVC stringers on all the Japan boards , VERY flexible , making handshaping those to specific rocker #'s difficult - hard to get an accurate measurement

I haven't seen one in a while now. Someone told me they thought they had stopped making them, but I never sought verification one way or the other.
Ouch! You hit the bottom or the board? I've been out three months. Ruptured appendix - went into septic shock, nearly died. I've been PTing hard to get back, but the sepsis hit my legs really bad. I couldn't walk for two weeks while in the hospital, so i'm trying to get muscle back on them. Started some kneeboarding a few weeks back - good fun, but not the same. Another month and i shoiuld be right, but it is hard missing winter swell. I missed last year too because of a shoulder injury too. Hope it heals quick mate.Maz said:
Fcking Lennox ripped me to shreds just paddling out on a bigger day and mistimed jump.
Surf looks like it’s been solid. Man I miss it over there

Geez bman. Glad you're on the way up. How long was your appendix ruptured before you got it taken out?Bman76 said:
Get better soon too Maz.
3 days. I just thought i had food poisoning! Vomiting and burning in the gut, but nothing too painful. Drove myself up to the hospital and passed out in the waiting room (went into septic shock). Woke up with nurses and doctors standing over me - nearly had a heart attack, but they got them out (they had ruptured and parts were just floating around...). Crazy how bad sepsis is. Just have no strength at all. Went from being lean, strong and fit to a POW. Weighed 55kg when i left hosptial and unable to walk without assistance. Should take six months to feel normal.jkb said:
Heal well, Mr Bman!
I’ll be alright very soon. Foot has improved hugely, so will hit The Pass for a little play, then return to Lennox tomorrow morning.
I found the one rock that was impossibly slippery and jammed my foot between the boulders. Idiot.
Russ Short got banged about on the hungry Lennox rocks, but still looks near pristine.
