No leggy omg someone fry this hipster ffs

He has a hi-vis vest on so everyone knows he is at work in the wave and no one else is allowed anywhere near it.

Stinking selfish hipster.

That guy is an absolute surf legend

Legends dont wear legropes ?

Its a 16 foot toothpick original made way pre legrope were invented.
I'd call him a pioneer also.

I dont follow you

jasdeking,more info on the mini glide please,and on the Tom /leg rope thing,on a 16 ft tooth pick,amazing skills but still 16 ft of timber with considerable weight ,coming shoreward with one whoops! ,don't know if Tom surfs it in crowded breaks,but I would not want to be between it and the beach because the sand or a body is all that's going to stop it. Having said that I don't think i would want to be attached to it with a leg rope either!!! Probably needs to be done away from crowds IMO.Personaly I have been the through the no leggie thing and loved the foot work freedom, the only way to ride a log,IMO,with the passing of time,my skills are not as sharp ,so I now choose to wear a leg rope always,especially on my sup.No offense meant,just saying,as I would not want to be responsible for hurting someone,especially a child.

Hey mate yeh same on the leggie thing i just wear it when i know i should which is most of the time and love and prefer not wearing one when i know its ok.

But thats just me and i wouldnt be so arrogant like others to tell another surfer what to do. That other thread needs to calm tf down.

Tom was in a display event in that pic... cant display the true surfing history while attached to a leggie .. that would be rediculous :)

The mini glide is amazing thanks for asking... while some think only a small wave board it loves a bit of juice.

Dm me if you want a paddle

Very. Generous and. Thank you

Nice mac.
But its hard to go past red black and white board no 23.
That was your best. The glory days

Of course im talking art.
What else is there!!!!

I hear to be good at longboarding you need many new boards a year.

You and asea have that sorted

This one followed me home yesterday.

10' x 23 7/8 x 3 1/2, In The Pink

Yeah - this one's a bit of an interesting one, that's for sure.
Saw it the other day in a shop, and really couldn't find much out about these Hawaiian Pro Design 'Epoxy Flyer surfboards' online, at all (the build etc).
But hey, 10' In The Pink, at a price that was quite considerably lower than a 9'6" Surftech ITP (as a comparison - given that surftech don't make a 10' model).

Picked it up yesterday morning, threw some wax at it and had 3 waves in 1 ft slop. Walked out of the water after those 3 waves exceptionally happy with the purchase, and feel that it's exactly the board I was looking for. Based solely on those 3 waves in 1 ft slop, it's the best board I've ever ridden.

Dug a bit deeper online, after the purchase, and it seems that these HPD 'Epoxy Flyer surfboards' may not have the best of reputations in terms of longevity, so we'll see how this one plays out.

On the upside, it'll keep me off the 12' Munoz, and when this board has had it's last surf, I'll be confident on spending the coin to have North Coast built me one!

Cheers!

Nice - they all look so thin at that sort of length (outside of the Munoz, which is closer to a SUP).

Hi Guys I'm a newbie . I've just spent a few hours going thru this thread - some interesting reading and viewing for sure. I've got a few Mal's but the reason I'm here is because I share the urge to get a glider. If any of you guys have a waning interest in your gliders let me know as there isn't too much on gumtree at the moment .I'm near Ballina but get to Byron ,Lennox. (thou on a mal out there you're a second class citizen )and Cooley pretty regularly when conditions are right. With this pandemic thing unfolding and work drying up I'll be doing a lot more surfing coming into the best time of the year here. I'm keen but not loaded and I definitely only want one.

Welcome mate there is a firewire at Tweed for sale ( I know the guy selling it) also a Pieters both on gumtree.

10'x24 ?"x3 ?". Gunny outline but performance mal bottom curve. Keen to see how it goes. Still needs a tidy up and polish.

10 ft all sorted will deliver pics upon arrival

Love this super easy board to ride, it just gives and gives much joy.
