Ben, I will soon. Those two boards are now down on PI with a friend, who likes them by the way.
Finished coated a few fins yesterday, have to fine sand them today. I want to get some picks of the little board with all fins in place. It looks....well....wild!
Hey Chipper!
Still the photo crazed loon, I see 
Here you go Ben......
6'0" and 6'5". The shorter one is wider and thicker, I think it was 19 3/4" x 2 3/8". The other one was 18 3/4" x 2 3/16". I used scrap reject blanks so that's why one has the bamboo insert and the other has carbon tubes.
Greg , those boards deserve their own thread , old son .
DOUG IRWIN ????!!!!
[whale oil beef hooked , maaan !]
WELCOME back mate , did the aliens finally return you , now ? [ran out of places to probe , i guess !!]
WHAT have you been up to , during your decade long absence [what it seems like , anyway!]
WILDY , they are indeed Wild !
beautiful !
i'd love to hear how they go ...please encourage your friends on P.I. to let simon have a go eh , when he returns there in june ?
hehehe!
Oh life has been full of excitement, I can tell you! New job. Illness and injury in the family. In fact I just got back to work after 2.5 weeks sick myself! First time in hospital overnight since I was 3yo. And that’s not even the half of it!
And yes there were aliens. And probes. 
I’ve dropped in here now and then, just haven’t posted
How’s things?
"How's things?"
yeah good
as you can see , i still take the occassional piccie , surf a bit , and make a fin or two eh ?
so , what did the aliens teach you ???
sorry to hear you were hospitalised (they DO have hospitals on planet zorthenol then , evidently , mate ?)
.....how's the SURF been in ol' adelaide town , more importantly ?
anyways , it's good to hear you are back on board now, dougie boy !!
keep surfing to keep sane
ben
Yeah I noticed you are still a happy-snap freak 
I dunno about zor-whatever. But I was on some other planet and they did have hospitals!
Surf in Addy has been mostly crap. Should be waist high on the weeknd, fingers crossed.
Cheers!
(Oh, the aliens taught me never to bend over for the soap…)
2 boards, eight fins...
