A 9" board will not measure 9" with the rocker in it,so they whacked a extra inch to make sure it would be of legal size........I could be wrong

Yeah that is the reason but they are supposed to be 9 ft... So 9'1 just says to me, i can't use a tape....


Imagine if builders decided to make everything a bit longer to make sure...


Chrispy could be onto it, 9'1 with the rocker curve could actually be 9 ft nose to tail..


Either way... Just one of those weird things that always kinda annoyed me..

^ Oh man I hate flying...I had a Swiss Airlines flight from Bangkok to Zurick & had a seat at the end of a section. Like a toilet behind & I'm on the isle. The seat only reclined like 50% of normal & a fat Chinese guy in front wanted to sleep fully reclined the whole way apart from meals when the flight took off just before mid day. I felt so confined & the fargin LCD screen had this sh1t viewing angle I had to jam a water bottle in behind it to get it to just watchable if I slumped down. Can't believe their planes have this sh1t design...got pretty drunk on that plane...thank god I accidently bought Barbarian Days MP3 disc (not book) & had it on my phone. Would of sucked otherwise....ummm so not so good plane design award

You are going to be in so much trouble talking like that.

Don't you understand their shaping machine has a lock of Bob's pubes to give it that extra special voodoo magic? Shame, Ted, shame!

2 silver is alright mate, both of those were behind a country that excels at all sports...

Surely your cycling team will get some medals and your rowers usually go alright.

Stop taking pity on us SP - you know that we are not an Olympic hot house of performance athletes but I am grateful for your kind words. For us fellas its all about the participation and if we do well thats cool - if not no harm done as long as everyone had a good time and Tinder was good to them in the Village and they were not treated like Danish gymnasts. Its not too much to ask for
