I'm sorry but I really don't like the way this guy surfs. He lacks power, slides his tail too much and never really gets his tail into the wave on his cutback, or hitting the lip and he doesn't complete his cutback and hit the white water with full force, etc....kinda of wimpy. Maybe you can change my opinion if you have some videos of him charging Sunset on the North Shore. His surfing is like drinking Rum and diet coke.

Good surfing, sick song! The scales you provided got me confused, but I could probably figure it out if I looked again. I have two gammas. A 6'3 and 6'6. I am 6'4 200lb. I put a pretty large dent in both of my boards where my front heel goes (almost cracked it), the board is not indestructible. I love the 6'3 but it sucks when the waves have no guts. The 6'6 seems too wide and feels stiff in good surf, I should have gotten LFT for the 6'6 as my step up but I still think the board is too wide. Hopefully they allow custom options in the future but that probably won't ever happen.
