    I think my nostril moustache is of far more concern, that and mutton chops that start from the ear canal!

    Revision to the "Age is a state of mind". Should read "Age is a state of mind and a state of foam"

    Going for the 602 VG rocketship after demo on the 600. Got it working but reckon 10% foam bonus would be a 'crowd pleaser'. An extraordinary board.
    A bit anxious that most are riding in the 5's but had a few surfs on it so decision made.

    good call Denchy. i went lil big and dont regret it. although i will say that i will b dropping my VG w my glasser for the third time. ea time were small chips to ea side of the nose and a small shatter to the rail. kind of a bummer. i did hold a Tomo Vader and Deathstar today in poly at a local shop. i had to show self control not to drop $$$. i buy a lot of boards, but this one might freak my wife out. i haven't passed the 6 week rule yet. maybe next week unless there is good word about the V4. the boards were pretty sick. sometimes poly can feel so good w the weight.

    Yeah would prefer the fst as am more than impressed with the durability of my other 2. Ding free after 12 months.
    We are the same weight, height but l'm15 years on the wrong side so I guess 4" diff on the VG makes it comparable with the age diff.
    Easier to hide the new boards as I keep them all white, but a bit much to pull the VG out of the cover and trot out the gate with it under the arm with the line "you mean this old thing?".

    I mean even young kids say "Hey daddy, thats a funny surfboard"
