I love that. 6'0" as a step up.
I was stoked when I dropped my step up to a 6'2".
Hmmm more work to do....
Oh mate, don't get me wrong I ain't no Kelly Slater......I'm looking at getting a 6'2 at the moment as the 6'0 was skipping out all over the show on my last solid session out west....the 6'0 is my step up in absence of a 6'2

How do you find the slayer Jabes...>I had one custom made through Freeride out west aucks a couple of years back when they first came out....wasn't overly excited on it but never surfed it in quality waves...... thought it would go sick in some hefty barrells but ended up selling it
is that the 58 I ordered you?
yeah its not bad good down the line but not much of a top to bottom board my older copy went best in 2 to 4ft decent barrely waves. this one was just my indo gun/ back up board girlfriend mainly uses it now

Haha...yeah thats the one....didn't want to go pointing out where you worked so was trying to mention it in around about way.
Still real keen to get on an SXE....I've always liked that plan shape for a good wave board
and no quad boss fins are confusing enough without adding a whole other set up option

Jabes, how attached are you to the Shanks, looks like a mean board for surfing right hand points here.
I have a similar Burn that is 6'0 if you were interested in swap neg.

Thats cos it is... A "force 10" I thought I might save myself $2000 and use it as a standup paddle board...but Its almost impossible to use due to being to narrow and having a massive V on the bottom. I actually surfed on it on Saturday... its a wave catching machine and does a mean bottom turn
Took it out at 5 ft K a couple of years ago and had a total ball... just getting in so early on the unbroken wave then death run thru the bowl to the inside...

Interesting- Ive often thought some of those older shapes would make a decent surf board.... Ive got windsurf race board which is 2.28m long and 1m wide with a 700mm long fin... I wont be giving that a go in surf anytime soon...

I look at that pic and I think, I'm serving too many farking masters....I told you... i told you motherfocker
Re: the libtech....fast, pop, love the scoop deck and the bulletproof construction.
I am sworn to an extremely painful, slow death if I reveal too many (any) coro secrets, the thing is tho that without good clean swell they don't really break that often....but when they do...Oh yeah!!!![]()

I remember not liking far beyond driven when it first came out, too brutal for me, it was scary sh1t.

My first quiver. this is I think 46 years ago. The two boards on the far right are made from cutting my sisters longboard in half, and making a mini simmons, and a strange looking single fin, glassing them with some of my dad's boat resin, and painting the french curve symbol on. I still have the yellow Atlas Woods tracker, still with the maltese cross I painted on it.
I have probably surfed about 5000 waves on it as a kid, and thought it was red hot, used to keep it in my bedroom. Surfed it a while ago, its horrible, go to turn it and it feels like you have thrown out the sea anchor, but very nostalgic.
Classic
bet all those boards are still around somewhere

This is a pic from a few years ago of my fleet. It is hard to get them all in the same place at the same time, as a few are usually lent out or over on the west coast, but I will try to get them all home and take an updated pic soon, as I have added to the collection a bit since then.
There is a Skip Frye fish, very interesting, a couple of MR twins, A Bob Mctavish twin, Atlas woods from the early 9'6" through the V-bottom, to the tracker and the ultra short and thick single fin. What looks most elegant to my old eyes are the nice foiled single fins around the 6'10" mark. They look beautiful to me.
The continuing search for the perfect 8ft-er.
I think I have 7 around this length, I must get them all together and take a pic.

Cheers Icon!!! Awesome work...
