ONE BOARD!!!!!!

Perish the thought, the industry would go broke in less than a week without idiots like me constantly changing boards

But if I was stuck with one, it would be my loverly,but difficult to turn, 10'6" Munoz.

Don't know any better but the 8' 7S XL epoxy is working out pretty good for me.

Bit off topic, but once I plateau I will try something custom and shorter.

Pretty easy for me... a 9'6 Brewer... It's actually a shame it is a Tuffy... But you have to take the positive with the negative... Tuffy's are tough. The perceived corkyness is somewhat of a perception... Don't you want a light board with foam to help you paddle into more waves? (unless you are an elite paddler or pro / semi pro on the WCT/WQS, aiming for a high rank on the new World Ranking system)...

Tuffy construction does lend itself to Malibu's quite well though... Mostly positives, with very few negatives (other than foreign made, global influence, and lack of uniqueness / mass production).

The alternate to the 9'6 Brewer Tuffy would be a Brewer Brewer, the same....

For a simple Aussie Made solution.... I'd go to Byron Bay, and get The McTavish boys to shape me something special....

It would be 9'4-9'6. Dead set compromise / in the middle of a 9'1 EvoII and a their 9'6 G2 Gun. That would suit be, 1 board quiver! It would be comfortable in Double Overhead Plus, yet still be a nice enough slider down to knee high.

Considering a Brewer Brewer would be too hard to sort out, my Simondo McTavish would be "the chosen one".

(If you need any further translations, I would be trimming up the nose quite a bit, to avoid it catching on decent take offs... think about those pointier noses on early Waimea guns... I would also sell off everything, all other surfcraft... "The Chosen One" would be triple strung and tinted in blues, and probably in weight saving "pro-finish", but given a decent careful buff up.... no top coat / gloss coat... on further consideration, the 9'6 Brewer might have to make way for this board.... in theory... maybe I might even order such a baby! )

There's your first mistake - when you plateau you need to go custom but longer

Does this baby mean you would also sell off all other craft, including the higher volume things that you stand on whilst gripping onto a black carbon shaft!?

Or are you a Gemini... Billboard wants an ITP, but Foxie-Su* also gets his choice...?

I thought this was a longboard question - and if I could only have one longboard it would be the ITP
ALAS if we are only talking ONE board of any kind then of course it would be a sup - and probably something around 10ft.

^ "The Chosen One" would need to be very carefully considered!
OK, short answer, a blended EvoII and G2 Gun, hand shaped by Bob McTavish of course ! 9'6.
