    No sushi, no poke? OMG! I eat it more for the flavor than for the health benefit. It's so gooood! I grew up on processed food too. I let my wife guide me to the light. Though, I still like my cookies and a little bit of ice cream. I'm 65 and I was in your store last week. Josh helped put a kit together so I could get back in the water after 15 - 20 years. Nice video. Oh, and yes their is knee pain and back pain haunting me.

    I just ordered a chief flex bat tail. I used to ride an empire 42. About 10 years ago or more trying to get back into it this summer. Got a Costco (Scott burke ) board for the kids, tried it out and I couldn't catch anything at Sunset Beach. Im 5 '10 240. Learned to catch waves on the empire. About same weight give or take back them. Hoping this board will make it fun again at 51 year old. Only downside is the one color option!

Hitting only WA and SC in SoCal so far, water temps on the cooler side and the board is dialed in. Just ordered the MS Style Loaded HV board for a trip coming up in Jan w/ warmer water temps, hoping it's a good match as well.

    Interesting topic, Jay! As an avid surfer of big waves in Morocco, I've found that using bodyboard fins and handles significantly helps in maintaining stability on the wave's face and keeping a steady line. The only challenge is that fins can be difficult to steer. Perhaps a slightly flexible fin design could address this issue.
