about 3 weeks ago i grabbed a mates shortboard for a couple of waves after the boys bet i couldnt even paddle into a wave on it (it had been over 2 1/2 yrs since i rode one)the board was way too small for me so you can imagine i didnt have much fun but caught a few then swapped it for a more pie eater friendly shortboard and had a ball on it
but in the end couldnt wait to get a paddle back in my hands

i only ride a shortie if i'm kiting
dont worry to much casso looks like i wont be making it for the comp at the moment
DMB doesnt need anymore encouragement in pulling my handbrake on any further
