    The Unibrow is a more refined step up from the Dom I think. Between the Dom and the MD.
    I could be wrong though!

    I have a HF for when it's pitching. Took it out today in fast steep head high long period groundswell. Makes the drop well. It's more me than the board on the takeoff. Always find myself struggling to set my rail fast enough on the steepest waves. I'm usually money on a nice shoulder. No pipe for me. Lol. I'll take your advice on the pnator.

    No Core going further North, works in similar conditions though- and I think you have most of the quiver these days! I tried to rustle up the FW Fan but he will be in Indo then...lucky bastard :)
    I can hardly wait to surf with no other commitment other than lunch and few brews around the campfire.

    Good thing is I feel like I'm ripping but are under no illusions that I actually am - but as long as I feel I am I'm happy!
