He's not telling tall tales.  Seen him yesterday surfing better than ever.   Looked relaxed too.  Followed him on a wave we rode all the way to the lagoon... pretty damn cool

Headmount and PB - I was not implying in the least that tall tales were being spun. Just telling a tale that sounded wonderful..

Looks like such a clean simple shape.  Looking forward to that blog post to see more of it and hear what you think gives it that magic touch.

  Great post PonoBill.  I was just thinking today that Laird Hamilton always seems to be on boards that look to be in the 10 to 11 foot range.  I'm really pleased that more shapers are making these refined longer sup shapes.  I really like riding my 12 foot PSH gun in regular surf but your Foote model has me thinking...

Those boards are gorgeous. I saw one on the beach last summer.

They are the best looking production boards on the market in my opinion. Best looking shape, plus the sexy carbon exposure in the rail.
