hi guys
looking at investing some $$$$ in to a semi-gun/gun board for some bigger surf, wondering what boards you guys ride or would say a worth a look at, just for some guidence i'm 6'3, 110kg, i've been supping for about 2 years and ride a 9'11 dtm in pretty much all conditions at the moment

thanks in advance

Just curious to know, who prefers the classic style of longboarding and who prefers the more modern performance style of longboarding? Which is more appealing or better to watch? Where to you think longboarding is heading in terms of approach to wave riding!

Plus beers on the chill for tonight's AFL match.... Our Mighty Geelong Cats v's Collingwood Magpies.




Plus, my old McT Original should find a new home this afternoon...

I would be more than interested to see what you are surfing

Go on you know that you want to

Hello! After a few days of half decent waves here in Sydney I've decided to ask a question for the good SUPers out there. Hopefully you can help!

I'm really struggling holding a rail on bigger waves - they were in the range of 6 to 8 foot faces. They were bumpy (Whiterock and Long Reef Bombie) and glassy (Manly yesterday) so I can't blame it entirely on wave quality. I seem to take off ok, set up for a bottom turn, carve into the turn and lean a little on the paddle, then WIPEOUT!! Fins/rails have lost all grip and I end up sliding down the face or just falling off. It feels like a spin-out on a windsurfer...

I'm riding the 9'6" Naish with Simon Anderson quad fins - medium on the back large on the front. Should I go bigger fins in big waves or is it a problem with a fish not pintail? Or is it just technique? Do I need to get more of the rail engaged by leaning forward more?

Is this impossible to answer?! Any help gratefully received!
