new pintail for California!

in honor of my upcoming trip to california, i thought it time to treat myself to a new board…my first pintail! unfortunately, i have no access to foam at the moment…so i went the eBay route —

item # 120004433951

looks like a pretty decent shape in pretty good condition…and at $300, quite the steal!

speaking of california, i got two PMs from totally awesome swaylockers offering up a couch and a tour of the local breaks. how cool is that?! well, if anyone else wants to be cool, too…feel free to offer the same. stay groovy, swaylockers…

Cosidering the costs of resin, foam etc.: I think that is a good deal. Better snag it and go West. I Just got two 9’0"s back from the glass shop that are pretty similar in tail design, but thicker over-all. They are designed as high perfomance boards that can be ridden by bigger guys. I’ll be in Calif for a few weeks myself. Too bad I sold my “rubber ducky”.

That’s a great deal. The first board I bought was a CC Rider. For a 9’1" longboard it’s really light yet very durable. And the color work is amazing. Perfect red tint with very clean cutlaps. Didn’t even need pinlines. Although it is impossible to keep wax on the black laminate there.
