O'neill Boardshort..

Postby Jorickdd » Wed Jun 28, 2006 5:57 pm

I bought swimming short this afternoon.. Only I discovered there was some kind of plastic 'saw' attached to the right sidepocket... There was some sort of nail in it which you could slide open.

I wonder where this is used for? I guess it has something to do with surfing, but as I am not actually doing that, I thought I could post it here.

Sorry......I must have been writing my answer at the same time as you.
I normally do my 'throwing people off the scent' posts on Global Surfers

Brundog is in Bali, so I did him a favour and posted on Global that there have been shark sightings at the break he is surfing.......just to make it less busy :D
