The Rusty Piranha. Anyone ridden one? Is it a serious thing or do you think it was their idea to appeal to the public in a flashy novel sort of way

Hasn't Rusty been making this model for 20+ years?
Not exactly what I would call 'flashy novel'

Yeah I don't know anything about it but I haven't been paying attention to all the boards coming out, for about 20 years I guess. I know what I like up till now and I all but ignored what the kids have been riding. I have a beaver-tail wetsuit I just retired as well.

Haven’t ridden one.. I’ve heard it was a pretty versatile board. The dims they list in their archive seem pretty low volume for the given lengths. Several of their newer alternative / hybrid boards are based on the Pirhana.

My friend repped for Rusty. I got all the team hand me downs. Never a bad one in the bunch.
I thought this thread was about shitty cichlids. Specifically oscars. Fuck em.

I've had a bunch of Rustys, especially when I was living in SD. I think all his shapers are great. Had a Mick Button step up that was incredible in waves of consequence.

What kind of crap post is this!?!? Where’s the arguing over non-surf related things like dead lifts and what vinegar is best to make pickled onions. This place is falling apart.
MODS—please move this BS post to the Design Forum.

Yes Karen.. there are plenty of "recipes" on youtube for this.

I think you can search pinterest too for Karen recipes.

Get back to us with what you find.

If I want pickled carrots I just go to Carnitas La Via and steal all of theirs from the salsa bar. Much easier.

I've had a few, (2-3) it's been a long while but they go good.
Only one i didn't click with was a dedicated quad with the fins spread too far apart.

Don’t you hate it when your son gets around 10 and starts grinding every thing? A whole loaf of sourdough? Dude that’s what I stocked the downstairs freezer for.
