6'7 Campell Brothers Bonzer that I saw in Patagonia....want to try but never ridden a bonzer
6'2 Firewire creeper...looks like the perfect replacement for my dead fish
8'2 Mctavish speed shape....need to find room in the quiver
7'6 Takayama Howard Mini...busted my old 7'6 so I can justify having this but can't justify the expense

I would like a board like that one inside your front door Tux - probably prefer a bit more width and thinkness but along similar lines.

I want a Slater Omni but just can not find justification at the moment unless my Evo snaps

If it is a board I'm going to surf there is no justification needed...buy it

A wall hanger I have no idea as I have never been in the market for it..so I will judge it on a art basis ...it is worth it if you will pay for it....

On the bonzer...buy it tux I love mine so much. My next shorty I'm getting sdr to make me one

1/2 are boards I've borrowed off mates & want my own...other 1/2 I would like to try. This pic of the quiver Berts made for big waves looked awesome apart from the colour, I don't like any black on areas of my boards that are going to have wax. But I've never seen a sunny day where he's testing them haha
