It doesn’t. Even if you believe what our overlords are telling us, they are saying that you wearing a masks protects others, not you.

From the research linked below:
"...research shows that they cut down the chances of both transmitting and catching the coronavirus"
Not sure if you're conducting your own comprehensive studies, Duff. But here's what the people who've spent their entire careers studying these sorts of things explain about the studies they've conducted. WARNING: they use words like DATA, control, evidence, etc
Face masks: what the data say
The science supports that face coverings are saving lives during the coronavirus pandemic, and yet the debate trundles on. How much evidence is enough?

Article is a year old. It focuses on droplets. We now know covid is spread as an aerosol.From the research linked below:

Might want to look at the most current data.
There is no correlation when comparing areas with strict mask mandates and areas with no mask mandates and rates of infection. None.
Also, sixtygrit is wearing a cloth mask and we now know with certainty that those don’t do sh!t.
MSN is your best source for this?? You're oversimplifying. It's spread from both droplets and aerosols. Huge range of sizes can both contribute to spread. But in response to your claim, The abstract:
"Cotton, the most widely used material for cloth masks performs better at higher weave densities (i.e., thread count) and can make a significant difference in filtration efficiencies. Our studies also imply that gaps (as caused by an improper fit of the mask) can result in over a 60% decrease in the filtration efficiency, implying the need for future cloth mask design studies to take into account issues of “fit” and leakage, while allowing the exhaled air to vent efficiently. Overall, we find that combinations of various commonly available fabrics used in cloth masks can potentially provide significant protection against the transmission of aerosol particles."

Again with the outdated studies.
Also, from your bolded portion….”can potentially”.
In real world settings the potential was unrealized.
U.S. COVID death rate by state 2023 | Statista
As of March 2023, Arizona had the highest COVID death rate in the U.S., with 455 deaths per 100,000 population. Hawaii had the lowest death rate.
www.statista.com
New Jersey and New York had the strictest measures in place yet have a higher death rate than Florida where there was virtually no restrictions or mandates (and a very old population).
Could you guys shut the fuck up about this sh!t and take it to the covid thread?
For the sake of this holy Yolo thread I’ll stop. But citing Florida an the lack of verifiable testing that happens there is laughable. Look at hospitalization rates right now in unrestricted states.

... So I got that new fish... seems to go pretty good. Curtis was a pretty cool dude. Here's his website: https://woodinsurfboards.com/
This is what you get for posting boar pr0n with anything other than a lawn in the frame.
Came for resin swirls, left with Rona facts.
Disappointed.

Low rails, low rocker, and a complex bottom contour, this board can handle a variety of conditions. This is more or less the mini-version of my glider design. Great for trim and glide keeping it smooth and casual for the expert and also a great design for the novice to cruise on and gain style points. This design also rides the barrel well on those stiff offshore days and the added length will let you sit deeper than the rest of the pack.

I think thats probably the case for most his models like his fish as well :/ ... https://trimcraftsurfboards.com/models/rich-fish/https://woodinsurfboards.com/shortboards/voodoo-child/

That’s f’d up. Cant blame web designer or anyone else when it is ur business.https://woodinsurfboards.com/shortboards/voodoo-child/

Rich Fish
This little puppy is based on the tradition of the classic Keel Fish championed by Rich Pavel for decades. When people say there is something different about Rich’s boards, they aren’t lying — the sheer amount of hidden curves and refined touches that are packed into roughly 5 feet of surfboard is nothing short of magic. Extreme down the line speed on less than impressive waves is the staple of the classic Keel Fish, but hold on to your shorts when that epic day comes, these Rich Fishes are more capable in real surf than you’d ever imagine.

Ziggy Star Fish
Based on the traditional Keel Fish Design by Steve Lis & Rich Pavel in San Diego in the 1970’s. When people say there is something different about a SD fish, they aren’t lying. The sheer amount of hidden curves, contours, and refined touches that are packed into 5 Feet of surfboard is nothing short of magic. Extreme down the line speed on less than impressive waves is the staple of the classic Keel Fish. These SD Fishes are more capable in real surf than you’d ever imagine.
Yikes...

Dude was at the Boardroom show this week too. Either doesn't give af, or he didn't bother to proof-read his plagiarizing web designer.
Jeez, at least move the sequence of sentences around.

I wouldn't worry about it. Its a bit of a slip up and laziness from an advertising point of view, but considering that it is totally acceptable to copy surfboard designs far more important is how was the retail experience and finished product?
