From any era etc
1. Gerry Lopez - one of his lightening bolt boards from his hay days of being the Pipeline Master - probably in Red
2. Bob - just to see what all the fuss is about 
3. George Greenough Concave Chine Hull - built these days by MC in Byron - or one of his flexible fiberglass spoon kneeboards.....anything would do from GG I almost brought one in Byron in Nov and have regretted it ever since.
4. A Jim Banks 7'2" Bali gun (and the balls to ride it in the waves it was built for)
5. a Josh Dowling custom right here right now!
Can't be quite as descriptive, sound like an interesting list mate 
I'd like to try a noserider mal, something with a bit of concave in the nose I guess.
A Hayden Shapes Hypto Krypto
A Firewire Spitfire
Had a Firewire Hellfire 6'0, I'd like to try a 6'2 & 6'4
Also like to try a 6'2 Potatonator by Firewire
& one of Dave Smith's Katana Scud's
Plus a bunch more, I've been looking at so many boards this year. Mainly wide ones 
Sort of inline with the topic
I have a McTav 9' 1" Fireball EVO II and love it but would like to have a board to go with my other 4 I would like to ride most.
So any suggestions for 4 boards that are as good or better than my EVOII but catch waves a little easier please?
Thanks

1. 9'6 Dick Brewer triple stinger big wave gun
2. 6' Geoff Mcoy Lazer Zap

hey ted, guy we did some work for outside of byon- he had two beautiful gl semi guns done in his camo colours- i was drooling.
ted you can't just try a bob, you have to love bob first.
bob don't put out for just anybody

I seriously can't get my arse off the 9'6 Occasional Pin. It surf's everything, and surfs it all really well. *
* It has a subtle Vee right through it, and obct would tell you to steer clear of Vee, go for concave, and I agree. But the Vee is awesome on this beast. One added benefit is soft landings when paddling up and over a wave... soft landing on the other side... Such a comfy board to paddle and surf... I noted to myself that I must measure the rocker and template, and rails... just in case I ever lose this piece of art! Best board I have ever owned. 'Till-death-do-us-part.
Here's my pics, not in any order, But the first 2 would be at top of the list.
1. An 8'6" Brewer
2. A Maurice Cole "Flex tail" ( I think it was called a Bonzer ?)
3. A Lopez "Pipe" single fin
4. A Late 80's - Early 90's Wayne Lynch Gun.
5. A Greg Noll solid log
6. Anything Rawson
7. A DHD 7'0" Margo Model ( Mabee later this year )
8. My Current JS 427 KW
9. My Old 9'1" HP Noosa Longboard
10. Anything Slater Shapes in the future if and when he decides to stop the tour.
I know it was only 5 but some of us Qlders cant count either.
Probably don't know enough to offer too much intelligent comment ...but hey that never stopped me before in other areas of my life......
Something finless to see what all the fuss is about
McT evo II and redline
One of those fat short boards to see what they are like ie bourton bullets......
More of Peter whites gear
And that's about it so far......
