Surfs

[Diesel]

I just purchased a Liquid Force Custom 4'10", my first Surf. I rode it today for the first time and I have three little dimples, the size of quarters, that have formed on the bottom. Anyone have a simular problem with their Surfs?...

Those sound like pressure dings which are common on a glass/foam or epoxy/foam board. They won't hurt a thing, just not as pretty now.

I got a new LF Venture in Oct and noticed one of those myself...

Thanks!... That makes me feel better. I was freaken thinking I just spent this money and got taken on the board I purchased. I have always been a Hyperlite fan since 1996 but I just saw this board and fell in love. Like I said, this is my first surf and so far I am loving it! Boarding and Skating are my passion but I think the Surf will be just the ticket when it gets choppy. Now it is all about tring to find the right weight for the boat.

I am standing here beside myself trying to figure out what tis dis "the Surf".

Please explain dis "the surf"

[Diesel]

"Surfs" is just short for Wake Surfboards.

[Ed G]

oh... "surfs" must be Wisconsin logo. Never heard that before.

I thought you were talking about some kind of weird underwear.


Bit of history and meaningless trivia:

"log" or "stick" is the slang for a surfboard...That's why the God Father of wakesurfing, Jerry Price, named his company : "Shred Stixx".

Anyone attending the Tampa and/or Orlando Owners Reunions can demo a Shred Stixx Piranha, stick.
