Chipfish61, I hope those fins are going on a white surfboard ?

Cecil

nah mate , I’ll be making people’s eyes spin , by riding them on the lurid "prawn’’ of mine …

meanwhile , here’s another bit of 50c material … ( THANKS , ’ Save The Children Fund ’ !!)

[ This could look okay as a “false wood effect” inlayed into a set of twin fins , or maybe twin keels , eh ??]

ben

yeeeeew

op shops are so cool!

you might even find a pair of really 80s pink board shorts for “cecil” to wear!

Cecil , SAY it isn’t so !!

dude , it’s been tough having Cecil Stubbly for a name …everyone starts speaking with lisps for some reason when they talk to me .

But I’m thick skinned .

Regarding pink boardshorts …I’m not into all that retro shit , man . I’m strictly a thruster rider . I just come here to see what older people ride . Plus , occassionally, there are some cool modern type boards posted in the resources.

Cecil

knuclehead Stubs, why the heck would you care what older people ride,What is old?, since when do young agro boarders even give a hoot? you might be cooler and you think you are.

Cecil, or is it Thethil ?

So, you are thick skinned are you? With all due respect, you also seem to be thick headed. Currently you seem to not know how much you don’t know. There is much to learn through this forum. Much of it from the men who helped lay the foundation, and the path leading to what you consider “MODERN”. I suspect the THRUSTER design has been around longer than you have been alive. That would be about 25 years or so. My point is not to take a shot at you, but to get your attention. There is a tremendous resource (THIS FORUM) at your disposal, use it wisely and learn from it. It would not surprise me to see the next surfboard design breakthrough come from one or more of the contributers who post here. Who knows, it may be some old guy who rethinks things, (having been inspired by this forum) that allow you and others to take surfboard design, and surfing to the next level.
