Wow. I dont longboard much..like once a year :lol:

,but for the last few days I have been longboarding in like headhigh surf to knee high surf and found its just a freakin blast. Soo much ease, and slow curvy movements!!!

So, after all that I might just longboard a lot more now. I always thought in big surf you can only use a shortboard, but thats bull*!!

Anyways, whats a good board for an advance longboarder (Cos I have surfed for a while now short)

PS I heard McTavish but I cant get that here

I hear are good. Sorry I can't really give info. on specific models.

I've got a Yater (specializer nose) pin tail with a big ol' single fin, and it is fantastic!

Yea..old wateva!! I can still shortboard great...just it feels more in touch with the wave longboarding :lol:

(Corny excuse)

Hmm..I shall have a look in the surf shop on Friday..report some models!

Any Idea if what size. Something 9' I think

At least 9'...IMO if it's under 9' it's not a longboard (based on longboarding contests generally don't let you enter with anything under 9').

If it matters mine's 9'8"...

About 12 years ago I dived into the sea and thought it was a lot deeper than it was. I totally compressed my spine, and did something to my neck but it's been ok.......until yesterday.

Haaaaa!!!!

Now I understand the PM

39's not old

I'll try anything, and would definately give longboarding a go........It just looks like really hard work to get one out the back.

You'll have to give me lessons in Bali, Borneng

Me? Give you lessons ? Now that's the most funniest joke I've heard so far. Unless you want to learn 7468 ways of falling off from your board disgracefully. :wink:
