| All about my boards ! |
| Board 1 |
| Shape: |
Mini-Mal / Hybrid |
| Fins: |
1- Single |
| Shaper: |
Illusion |
| Size x Width x Thickness: |
8'6" x 22 3/4 x 2 3/4 |
| Condition: |
Battered and Bruised |
| Make and Technology: |
Used Fiberglass board I picked up on craigslist. |
| Tail: |
squash |
| Bottom: |
Flat |
| Year Bought: |
2009 |
| My Opinion About: |
In between board. It doesn't float me enough to catch smaller waves and it can't duck dive anything. So it is painful on small waves and useless on larger ones. I want to get this sold and find a new board ASAP! |
| Session Memories: |
First board used/owned after moving to CFL. |
Board 2 |
| Shape: |
Bodyboard |
| Shaper: |
Ion |
| Size x Width x Thickness: |
42" |
| Condition: |
Battered and Bruised |
| Make and Technology: |
Pretty nice light weight board with good buoyancy. |
| Bottom: |
Double Concave |
| Year Bought: |
2007 |
| My Opinion About: |
Currently on hold until I find some way to glue/tape up the front end. It came separated when a friend was using it and I don't want it to rip open.
Much better than my starter board. Easier to catch waves and better performance. Also not so flimsy that it feels like it will break after a rough drop in.
Front end separated and I can't find anything good to glue it with. Locals tell me to just use duct tape, ugh. |
| Session Memories: |
First decently performing bodyboard I ever had. Had all of my best bodyboarding sessions with this one. |

| Condition: |

| Bottom: |
Double Concave |
| Year Bought: |
2007 |
| My Opinion About: |
Nice and large. Really buoyant. Doesn't turn that great, but is good enough. |
| Session Memories: |
Took this out this summer a bit with Gage. Had a lot of fun with it in the La Isla and Playa Norte beach breaks. |

| Bottom: |
Flat |
| Year Made: |

| Year Bought: |

| My Opinion About: |
Great practice board for beginners. Heavy, slow, and unresponsive. Catches waves extremely easily (almost too easily in big surf). |
| Session Memories: |
Learned how to surf with this board in the summer of '08. Had my best ever surf session with this one in San Bartolo. |
Board 5 |
| Shape: |
Mini-Mal / Hybrid |
| Fins: |

| Make and Technology: |
APS 3000 / CNC shaping. |
| Tail: |
round |
| Bottom: |
Flat |
| Type of Fins: |
FCS G-5 |
| Year Made: |
2008 |
| My Opinion About: |
Much lighter, faster, and more responsive than my longboard. Paddles better. Slightly harder to catch waves with it but at least I can duck dive it with minimal problems. This board is at the minimal buoyancy that I can use. Anything less will never catch a wave. |
| Year Bought: |
2008 |
| Session Memories: |
Caught some good waves with it at Pampilla and San Bartolo, but is still hit and miss for me. Some days I can catch the waves with it, other days I can't. |
