Which board?
Ulladulla Golf Course is 6 foot - 2 to 3 times my six foot height - and it is begging to be ridden by a good longboard. From the endless possibilities of the Infinity Wagon you pulled up in, what board do you pull out? Dimensions, fin set ups please.

I ask as it is very similar to some waves I pull my longboard on and I am curious what more experienced longboarders would ride on a wave like that and why. I am loving the longboard and I am curious if I really need another one. (Smart comments about never too many need not be included as we all know there are never too many, but do I NEED on?)

I have a cofession to make...
I bought my first longboard 3 months ago, a 9'3 Paul King & I've only used my shortboard 3 times since I got it. A part of me is worried I'll never be able to go back & another part of me doesn't care. I've had a bad ankle since last May, dunno whats wrong with it but I was hurting it pretty often & was out of the water for a couple of months. Doesn't seem to happen on the longboard

But anyway loving the longboard, its so fun & has had me out in the water regularly this summer riding waves that would be unridable on a short board. I'm not very good on it yet, I can't nose ride, cross step or do sharp drop knee turns. Gotta question for yuz...I'm 78kg's, I should be able to nose ride a 9'3 shouldn't I? I end up nose diving when I try...is it coz I have to cross step gently up the board?

Missus took some video last week in between swims & fighting off attacking insects with sharp pitched screams...but yeah, if someone could explain how to nose ride that would be appreciated. Unfortunately didn't get any footage of the couple of recent fails on this video to demonstrate how its not done
