Wassapining

Not posted since august... Knee now much better! Got given the jolly green giant! Nine foot, triple stringer, diamond tail. Had to get some repairs done... took of the glass on side fins and got plugs inserted, adding versatility for varied fin set ups. Board rocks as a single fin. Have tried with a keel fin(9inches) and a more standard fin(also 9") and in various positions. Works well with either. Have only surfed it in El Sardinero on a variety of wave sizes.Seems to go well from knee to chest high, my comfort zone. Have to get this board across to Somo soon for a trial on some longer waves to really test its metal. Will get pics also at some stage.

Tattoos have come along well also. Done for the Spanish sessions. Heading to NZ in June and have some time booked with dean, the family tattooist in Wanganui. Hopefully we will have a good colaboration and a sweet result.

Until the next... Stay golden
