Friend of mine is a life-long surfer and yesterday he went out on the boat with us and brought his board. <BR> <BR>It is 7' 10" long. <BR> <BR>I think it's a something something wave riding machine. Logo has dolphins in a circular pattern. <BR> <BR>I'm hooked. <BR> <BR>It was the most effortless wakesurfing I have ever experienced. <BR> <BR>Easy to get up, (using standard board side ways technique) and once up, right into the sweet spot. <BR> <BR>Even with just my two 600lb sacs in my DD Outback, I was surfing the wake with the nose of the board about 8 feet behind the boat. <BR> <BR>When my buddy rode his board he was back there doing all kinds of cutting back and forth. He was even surfing the wake where it almost disapears - about twenty feet behind the boat. <BR> <BR>He enjoyed it immensly - he never got to ride continuously for such a long time before. <BR> <BR>I'm off to Ron Jon's to buy a board!

Ed! That is sick! We enjoyed the 10'2" Infinity of Dennis' but that was a bit more trouble to flip up than your 7'10". I love how far back you can flot in the pocket and recover. We ran the Tige up to about 14+ mph and had a pocket that was probably 40 feet in length you can surf the whole thing. <BR> <BR>Before you run out and buy that longboard - Jerry Price of Shred Stixx, the same gentleman that so generosly donated to your Moomba/Supra Jamboree is making me an 8+ foor noserider, I'd bet he'll have production models available soon.

Not that it matters but those are " Wave Riding Vehicles." <BR>Surf More/Work Less! <BR>Wadd$

Jeff, <BR> Speaking of which. I think we will have the board to ride 5/12. "The Ugly Nuuhiwa"

You bet I'd like to hear what Jerry can do for us. <BR> <BR>Can you imagine the promotional opportunities of a long board manufacturer invading surf area (Daytona Beach et al) and in the wakeboard capital of the world (Clermont)??? <BR> <BR>My buddy is a Navy brat. He learned to surf in Hawaii while his dad was stationed there as a pilot. <BR> <BR>Somebody ought to grab this guy as a team rider surfing long boards behind a boat. He is awesome. <BR> <BR>His brother was on the beach the day the wave riding vehicle logo was designed. He used to be a team rider for wave riding vehicles.
