Saw you at Church that day, you were ripping. I wish I had said hi, but was nervous to do so. At 3:29, that's me paddling watching you do the bottom turn. There was a longboarder that pulled off and you went Richter on the turn. You went way down the line, then paddled back, passed me and left me like floating seaweed. For a split moment I tried to secretly paddle battle you, I lost by like a mile. LOL Seeing you in person, paddling, surfing, I guessing seeing any of you top level surfers, it's ridiculous. Very very humbling. haha Love the videos, Cheers.

Maybe you should start riding twins a bit more now that you have time to play around with boards. It hasn’t hurt Josh Kerr’s surfing any. I think Kelly credits his rail game to having learned to surf on a twin. I noticed on the G skate, you were forced to smooth it out a bit rather than give your sorta classic umph that you give the last 1/3rd of your wraps. It sorta looked nice seeing you ditch that little umph in your wrap for a smoother follow through at the end. I noticed the more I surf twins the smoother my style gets, and when I do give any umph my timing is better because you can’t push it umph early on a twin without losing it or blowing out into a unpredictable, harder to control, slide. Maybe a twiny is the tool you need to up your game, force you to draw new lines, and think about your flow and power in a new way for your return to the tour.

Cool board breakdown. Killing it on both boards. Can’t believe how the G Skate made that section. Tom was ripping as well. Thanks 🤙

My son in law was struggling with my old Doyle 9' foamie. I found him a used 9' Degree 33 board not knowing how it would work for him I wouldn't have much in it if it didn't. After a few minor repairs I sneaked it out for a trial and loved it! His first time out with it I couldn't get it away from him for anything LOL! I'm 76 and will never be especially good but just go for fun in the water and for me (us) this one is "magic" for just having fun.

My magic board has been the Seaside by Machado and the Lost RNF96. The former I just keep in my truck. I ride the Seaside at 5’6 in 2’ to double over hear, and in fast overhead slabs that pull off the shelf/ledge at my local spots. It can’t seem to do any wrong frankly. It’s good off the bottom. It’s good off the top. It holds. I haven’t found its limits yet, and I’ve surfed every winter swell here in HI for last three years; haven’t missed one. Even when it’s multiple directions and unruly that boards cuts through the BS rather well, even when it’s sorta scary big’ish. 🤷🏽♂️ My RNF96 is also all round magical too. I’m loving Rob’s Too Fish too for this small summer we’re having thus far. Being on the straight twin everyday is really smoothing out my surfing a ton, and it feels sooo good.

Love the sound of these models! Always good to hear a few different boards that are being ridden. Epic Californian quiver 👌
Great surf on the rail and speed ! Your foot orientation is rather medium, with a dominant back foot. I imagine that it influences a lot on your shapes and the choice of your boards and fins? Can you tell us more about the subject ? Otherwise, have you made a video where you present your electric bike and the facilities for transporting your equipment? Can you carry 2 boards at the same time? Thank you for your answers and sorry for my english, I'm french. 😅

How good is that G skate! Probably the rider juicing its abilities but tight turns and super fast. Looked super fun under Lakeys feet. Currently loving a JS Monster Box. 37L 6'3". Shes getting pretty flogged on our rocky point breaks so I might get a replica.

My magic board is a NGTV(negative) Bumper Car. Similar to the G Skate. But without the pulled in tail. Quad fin setup. Most of the spots I surf, the waves are not bowling, goes really good over the flatter sections. But I would love to try out the G Skate

Sounds like a super fun model! Always good to be on a board that motors through dead sections 🔥🔥🔥

I don't have a magic board yet I ride a 5'10" CI sampler that I really like. I don't know too much about boards just focusing on getting better at turning and going backside so hopefully a lot of jalama days this August when the water warms up. Cool to hear your break down of the quiver! I thought I saw on your insta story that you were on Connor coffins podcast so I'm stoked to watch that when it comes out.
