Hi everyone,

My name is James and I got the surfing bug last year on a holiday in Jersey. Been a few more times since and now I've booked to go away in a few weeks time for a whole week dedicated to surfing.

I'm still quite rubbish sadly but I still love it!

See you all around

Howdy! My name is Derek Kim. I've been interested in surfing for a little while now. Just trying to get more information on the sport. My big question is- What is the difference between a long boards and a short boards? If someone could PM me with the answer please feel free! Or hit me up on MSN or AIM.
