Wayne, The board looks awesome. The shape is what I remember riding when I borrowed the board you shaped in Costa Rica, easy to paddle in yet not a log. A bigger board that still allows generating speed when necessary, and the ability to ride as a true long board or do mellow maneuvers. A nose that isn't so full that you have to overly focus on that part of the board in more critical sections. A true hybrid for a guy who has surfed short boards since the early seventies but could use some of the pluses of a longer board after the wear and tear of surfing and skiing since age 5. The colors are also looking sweet. Can't wait to take it on the road when the ski season winds down in a month. Thanks for listening, John
