Wow .. that is an absolutely beautiful surf shot.

Even with the early, very long and stiff Mountain Boards, we found that moving the springs as far inward as possible allowed extremely tight turns .. not quite as tight as the conventional boards, but very tight. With the addition of the brakes, we could confidently go faster, knowing that runaway speed was avoidable. And we hardly every used the brakes .. a couple taps going into a tight turn in the road, or when our carves were getting a bit too drawn out because of excessive speed. I'll be interested in seeing the new design .. so long as brakes can be adapted.
