Longest board was this 10 foot Modern Retro with a single 10 inch hatchet fin. Accidently sold it due to an offer I could not refuse & will regret it this summer. The glide was incredible...I would love to go 12 or 14 foot for my next log. Friend has a good one for sale atm but I'm broke

My longest is a 10-4 Yater ,still have it, going on fifteen years,as they say its a keeper.
I did ride Tom Wegners 12ft paulownia longboard, amazing glide but hard work in the manoeuvrability area.
I had ten minutes on a Micky Minoz 11 ft glide,it was fun but not enough time to say it was good.
I do think everyone needs a 10 footer in their quiver.

It will be interesting,its a serious ankle high wave and up board. I can't help but think Bigspazz played a part in this model,if you recall his board build thread on his 12 footer.

While I was there I eyed off the Noosa 66 anniversary model being relieved soon,looked stunning.

The board is from the late 50's I can't recall the surfers name who was a mate of Bobs,they remade it for the Noosa Festival and had a comp called longest down the point,so its all about trimming.The board will be released this summer.
