sigh... i have a dark green 10 or 11 Chris Christenson copy of an Frye eagle, single fin no trailers, it's such a fun board ... i got it a few months back at the Board Collective in Oceanside, but i've since fucked up my shoulder and need surgery and won't be surfing anything anytime soon...

i'll post pics soon -

just stopped in to say I love my mitsven glider.

Wave hogs come from the person operating the craft, not the board :)
Mitsven gliders sound so exciting, not looking to spend too much though, I’m far away from wave hog, very considerate and mellow although love to claim the waves when my turns

I was just teasing ya. Of course totally depends on the individual, but I’ve seen a fair amount of those abusing the wave-catching ease of those boards. Can be session killers in the wrong hands! “With great power comes great responsibility” LOL

ahhhhhhhhh i kinda got cold feet on this one, Sublime. sorry. I'll PM you price and keep you posted if i change my mind


I'll decide if i want to let it go in the next week or so after i set the date for my shoulder surgery and review mri w/doc


I messaged Travis when this board came up on their post. I was VERY tempted just to have something that I could take out no matter the conditions and get wet. I was gun shy and honestly don't know how the hell I would store it at my house.. Good pick up.
^ exactly why i got it. catches so many waves even when it's micro... but found myself taking it out in head high stuff if i could find an excuse. when you find trim it just goes so fucking fast.

i was thinking of selling because eventually i really want to try a longer one with trailers and no single fin, like Skip says he likes

one of the other reasons I backed off. Bigger and better fin placements

No worries I’m still just looking around not too committed always regretted when sold unsure

I put my old 12' fish simmons as the most difficult board I've ever learned but also top 3 boards ever owned. I'd be stoked to get another but storing it was more difficult for me than a paddleboard and was more prone to the elements. If I got another one it'd be an eagle.
