Hi Herb,
Those are the type of questions I miss around here. A lot of it has become gobble dee gook, psuedoscientific, ego promoting, debate site. The “check the archives” response has made Sways more of an insiders boys club with fewer nuts and bolts type questions. My learning curve shot straight up when I discovered Sways and people answered my basic questions. Mike
Ya know, I’m pretty much just a lurker here on Swaylocks. I’ve never shaped a board in my life, though I do plan on doing it someday. Shit, the majority of the time, I’m kinda scared to post because I know I really don’t know what I’m talking about when it comes to shaping. But I am learning (and laughing) from reading you guys posts. And I’ve got a hell of a lot more respect for what goes into the boards I ride. I’ve never bought a foreign made pop-out and I never will. Matter of fact, I’m having a custom longboard shaped at a little hole in the wall in Wilmington, CA called Dreiling Surfboards as I write this. Anyways, I just want to thank you guys for the inspiration to not just shape (someday), but to surf in general.
that pic under your name is rad. where is that
A little OT but since ONFIRE asked…
I have that same pic on my wall right now in my office. It’s the picture of the month for July on my Surfrider calendar. All it says on my calendar is Argentina. So, I guess it’s safe to say it’s in Argentina.
Thanks, Ryan. Ever since I stumbled upon it on the internet, I’ve wondered about it. Suppose I oughta check into it a bit more…
“Argentina”
Careful…you might come back with a couple of wives.
