Surely you guys have got to like this one? No nose riding, drop knee turns or anythink like that.



Josh Constable, Lee Ryan and master shaper and pro Longboarder Jye Byrnes Surf a secret right in Indo

One of my favourite vids and inspired me to go OS with my mid lenghts !!!!

I then went to PNG and these were the type of conditions we got (the vid is not our trip but a good example of the waves). The 8fters went well. Mine have a lot of rocker in them with a truster setup and bump squash tail. I surf them from the tail like a shortboard but they just give an older fat fella like me that extra second at take off to prevent faceplant



Is it the board or the way you surf it that defines it as longboarding

No problem what size your board is...
..and no one there seemed to be sitting out back hogging all the waves or dropping in on short boards..

Surfing is surfing to me. Thanks for sharing

Long boarder near me today i was having a giggle at how far out he was sitting. But the waves he got, take of's with drop knee and the speed was fantastic. Still cant see why he had such a grumpy look all the time though..

Longboards of a different ilk. At the start of this I was thinking they were perhaps a tad over gunned. But then the offshore kicks in
