My new ride…

Just picked a new board from Tim Stamps…man I love the new board smell mixed with a couple of new bars of wax. It is a nice little thruster with a tiny touch of concave to the bottom deck…and while I haven’t ridden it yet…it looks like it might have a warp drive in there somewhere. My son Jack made sure to pick out the red rails for me…(it better be red Daddy!)…I hear that red makes you go faster.







And here are the dims for all you number junkies…

6’6” / 23.75” / 2.75” with a little extra glass 12oz on the top and 10oz on the bottom…try and keep in mind that I am about 6’1” and 240lbs…so this is one of my little boards. :)



I have another one of Tim’s boards…about the same template but with less rocker and a quad setup…the thing works so good that I had to get another with some extra drive off the bottom.

If you are in the market for a new board…or just want to see some of his lineup…check out his website.

Fortunately for us…Tim made me go home and do a special board cleansing dance (not sure why I had to be naked…yeah that was awkward for the neighbors) so that I wouldn’t bring down the “new board curse” on the swell for the weekend.
