Thats a joke. like your going to take your lap top and hit it with a big rock? I hate the BS poser crap that they try to hook on sufing to sell lame produts like this. How are you going to read the screen thur a nice Wax up of Sex wax? When My foot steps on the screen and a use all of my 250 lbs of force to do a standing island pullout i will leave pressure dents in it, After all I put pressure dent in my deck now with Triple 8oz.

It is quite sad isn't it?

It seems like surfing is everywhere nowadays. Car commercials, movies, drink commercials... I can't wait until the sport loses it's "coolness" factor...if that ever happens... :rolleyes:

I just hate having to fight with 1000 other people to get a wave.

Rant over...

Talk about a kook though... I wonder if he wears a leash? :D

I didnt see that the first time i read your response.

what kind of board are you rocking?

triple 8oz? volan? poly? deck patch?

I've heard Infinity makes darn good boards for the 200+ crowd.

My shaper is Robbie Dick. He is the best shaper for California boards.

I hear ya guys. The marketing attack on surfing is just a F'n joke. I liked it when we were known as derelict's and bums, or so people thought. I hate to sound like an a-hole but I try to give the rookie surfers as much grief as possible. The worse of a time they have in the line up the less likely they are to come back.
