This is truly incredible.

I can't even begin to express the amount of shame my wife would bestow upon me for such a YOLO.
Agreed. My gf would be done with me after all the bitching I've been doing about work and money the past few years. Still anticipating a rough period when my new MC comes lol

Not a proper yolo but I’m on a used board budget. Pretty much brand new anyways. 5-11 x 19.5 x 2-11/16 eps. Everything in my range is over 20” wide and I wanted to try something narrower. Was going to have him shape me one that’s more of a step up but I can at least try something narrower for the summer. Deep single to double. Pads pretty sad will prob pull it off. IMG_2683.jpeg

MC step up (REEVEE) Proto model, featured are very subtle rolled vee entry, a little vee out the tail, hard edge through the nose, a mini beak, foiled everywhere (48L) feels much smaller under the arm, and a message from MC!

Precious 5'11 x 19 3/4 x 2 7/16
Astro 5'7 x 20 5/8 x 2 5/8

Great built quality. Girly colours I know....
Step deck on the precious is a trip, and we'll see how long the pad stays on for lol. Astro feels really really fun. Will be another few weeks before I'll get to surf them unfortunately.

You in N or S Germany? North Sea or Med (or Eisbach)?

Wonder how you get 3 surfs a week in when living in Deutschneyland.

Neither, I'm in Cologne. Dutch North Sea is actually closer than German North Sea. I did the math on the maldives ride report, unfortunately it's not 3 surfs every week but an average of 3 surfs a week via taking a lot of time off and surfing as much as humanly possible during the holidays. They're currently building a wave park nearby, that'll help too. Long term plan would be to move somewhere with easier access to waves, but Germany is just so god damn convenient, especially with the grandparents around to help out with the little one #coresurfer

damn, that’s not sage lol. I’m picky about my shades of green, this worries me @Pyzelsurfboards
I've seen this happening with several board manufacturers. Burgundy came as fire truck red, pale lavender as bright pink (rails only, fortunately), dark turquoise as baby blue. Maybe it's best to send an actual sample (toenail?) or a hex code, I think it's probably easy to miss a certain shade with different screen color calibrations, print quality at the factory, them mixing the colour etc
