and for anyone not familiar with rapidfire...check the foot wells in this shot...thats had me thumping it full weight and strength since whenever the first batch hit oz...like my others, it gets handed out everyday to strangers to test, and still not one dent/crack...just perfectly defined foot-wells that developed quickly over a few weeks then stabilized...this happens identically with every rapidfire...try that with p/u p/e stick..even with heavier glass...

keen observers will note the hellfires perfect fit and consistent single sweet spot by the small circular heel dent at the top and the elongated toe dent below where a swivel of foot angle is all thats needed depending on direction

also in view is a slight foot well in front of the pad...this is from a narrow mid stance a'la 70's for serious bottom turns that rival just about any shortboard

justin, thanks for sorting it... :P

I appreciate that you used a slater with hair for the younger version of you. well planned and admirable execution.

thanks chris, i aim to please...when my crew cut is fresh i look a bit like him anyway...then people yell out my surname (kelly) and random guys edge close to me and start rapping....then they see me surf and realize i am NOT slater...!!...

haha good stuff.

hanalei...just noticed your bald dudes rule comment...now i'm joining the club i TOTALLY agree..!!

surferireland...that was the day after new years day...quiet at the beach and one of the nicest beach days we've had with the kids in ages...nice small runners for mini me to bang reo's on my HF..after i pushed him on..wont paddle himself...about the only stretch of clean sand here not fouled by dogs and water the colour of sapphires...absolutely beatiful...
