Early Christmas present

My dad got me this board today which is used for $200 with the tailpad and fins included :D . The fins were kind of scruffed up a bit but I still think it was a pretty good deal compared to my beat up 6'6". Cant wait to get used to this 5'11" and it will probably feel a bit looser lol :lol:.

Why doesnt my dad buy me surfboards? :(

Okay, so I'm a grown up, with a job, and a house, a long-term girlfriend, but still, c'mon dad - buy me a surfboard!!

I'm sure there's room in my garage for one more, just a small one! :wink:


Oh yeah, nice board, looks sweet, well done beachbum's dad!! :lol:

I think i might print out this thread and leave it around my parents house!!

I wont be getting anything but a stocking this year; already had a new winter coat (didnt have one and its freeeeeezing) as an early christmas pressie, i have no grandparents and only 2 uncles who dont really do xmas pressies now me and my bro are in our 20's.

Buuuut there will still be a christmas tree and a turkey and LOTS of chippolatas (best bit of christmas) and my famille so i am still tres tres excited!!!!!!!!!!

hey libby I know what you mean. i don't really get pressies anymore... just a few bits and pieces from my best mates, and my brothers if I see them. The sad thing is when you get older you start asking for SAD things like microwaveable rice cookers :oops: i've seen them and they look great cuz I'm always burning rice on the bottom of the pan, so I asked my bruv if he'd get me one (they're only £7). I can't complain tho cuz my bestest mate is getting me an indoboard :D :D :D
