Short Board or not? Revisited

Postby Manhattan Beach Grom » Thu Aug 06, 2009 2:35 am

Hey everyone. A while back I posted a thread about my board and I was wondering wether you would consider it to be a short board. Many of you couldn't tell for sure because I didn't have a picture. Well, finally I uploaded one to show you all. It's 7'2" but is a lot smaller looking than in the picture.

Not really a shortboard, you can call it a step-up, a big-boy shortboard, some call them hybrids because they are a blend between a funboard and a shortboard. Looks like fun begginer board.

i would classify that as a hybrid style board. But like teh Teach said it kinda slots in many styles.
