good stuff

These things have a typical pattern for me

I ride things I normally don't get the chance to

and I ride my mat

but I always give the boards a look.

Usually I try whatever Pendo has brought.

Michael Emery took dims and an outline from a Liddle shape at Bird's Shed and had some discussions with Steve Pendo. 

My interest was piqued

To be honest I haven't really stood up surfing in years

But hey I gave it a go.

First wave was a set wave and a late take off at that,

the board took off like a shot

leaving me in a heap and swimming for the board.

Whilst some may be disappointed by this I found it encouraging.

Fast is good and even faster is even better.

A couple more waves and I found my sea legs.

The board was magic.

I understand someone bought it on the spot.
