that last pic was cool

keep have'n fun Chipper

yep , Ken !

 

  Simon has hundreds [if not thousands?] of these , I'm sure , as they are frame grabs off his  'go pro' camera , which he sets in movie mode.  They are always GREAT shots .....because Simon spends three MONTHS of each year overseas in REAL waves [and where he lives is none too shabby either , by the way !]

 

I'm hoping if / when Simon drops in here on his way home from o/s , that I may get a chance to see his FOOTAGE !  I'm guessing that , with good glassy waves , reefs , no water droplets on the lens , and good tuberiders to boot , Simon must have an accumulation of pretty EPIC footage , by now !

 

 cheers !

That Parkesy board is beautiful, dig the twin nose concaves...

Yeah Surffoils, Those are some serious concaves. I guessing this is a strictly rear pivot turning shape.

....hi guys !

 

  it's a guy called Chris , that I occassionally get to  surf with . I got talking to him in the water one day , because I was checking out his boards ...he always rides lots of interesting , different looking stuff !   He is a backyarder .  He did the shaping , spray , glassing , sanding , plugs ...the works !!

 

  [and yes , he knows about Swaylocks , now !]
