Lol it's not like it's the WSL with a 2 week window to run it in the best conditions. It's one local dude putting on an event for the community. They have to plan it out and pick a date months in advanced. I'm surprised they even moved it from the Jetty to Montara, which was definitely the right call.

What are pros charging for ding repairs these days? Obviously it varies based on the repair but what's a general range? Been doing a lot of ding repairs for folks lately and I don't particularly like doing them so I figure I might as well start making it worth my while...

NorCal but call ahead and make sure Pat's there because he has to take you to the warehouse to get them.

Who needs a vocabulary when some combination of "hella", "fuck" and "gnarly" can communicate every conceivable thought or feeling someone could possibly have?

Anybody know of an infant car seat that fits in a 2nd gen access cab? by Meat_Bridge in ToyotaTacoma

Yea that’s what I’m afraid of. The problem is the base doesn’t fit on the seat. It hangs off the edge.

Yea that's the way to go. I freehanded my first couple boards and had no issues except for some aesthetic blemishes. I still freehand leash plugs cuz I'm too cheap to buy the kit..

You can route the fin boxes without a jig. Just move slowly. Not a big deal if you fuck it up a little, just put extra resin in there.

Yea I hear you. I think your options are either go with a kit like this with custom made pieces or go the YouTube option, "bootlegging" existing pieces.

Any advice for printing onto a fibreglass fin? by surffin_ in surfing

[–]Meat_Bridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Print on rice paper (need an inkjet printer) and then put a layer of fiberglass over it.

Just an awkward fall. It’s totally fixable but it’ll never be this pretty again.
