It was slowly dying for some time now. I enjoyed the sharing of information especially on the board building. I got inspired to make my own and haven't bought a new board since. The threads got more and more diverse as new sports came into the picture. I also think the health of the founder may have come into play. I will miss Bill Boyums' "Smokin Maliko Thread" and Pono's constant know it all imput. Both were good people if you ever met them.
Are Pono and Bill Boyum still alive? You speak of them in past tense. I am a big fan of both. Love Boyums surf book.
I also had spent a lot of time on the zone. It was cutting edge when sup came out and the same when foiling started. I started riding Axis because all of Admin's frothy posts about each new wing that went on for years. I felt bad for those that never took up foiling and had there sup forum destroyed by it. And of course the Zone was my introduction to Beasho and all of his data driven Mavericks froth. You can't replace the days of being on the frontier of a new sport and interacting with other early adopters on the Zone. Now everyone is dispersed to seabreeze, progression and facebook. RIP SupZone! And Thanks.
