We go through lulls all the time Mac, and to be as honest as I can, longboarding is not the most diverse and interesting subject in the world. We kind of run out of subject matter really quick.
I do my best to spice it up and make it funny, but even I can't sustain that.
Something will happen soon to get the boys frothing, trip 8 has some potential

What if?
SA forgets to take his favourite board polish, and has a seizure over it

Al's old wagon does not make it past Kempsy and he ends up shacking up all weekend with a big hairy trucker in this sleeping cab

Pup does another outstanding BBQ, but after everyone is done complimenting him, he then tells them it was made of sheep balls

Climber turns up with this much anticipated 10' board, only to be laughed off the reef because he foolishly purchased a McT

You turn up with an NSP and declare that Bob is a fraud and you'll never again rest your nut sack on one of his stringers

All this, and much much more, could possibly happen ,to get us out of our lull.
