I ride longboard, as Cornish waves are on a smallish size most of the time, and only longboard can harvest their lazy power.

Minimal was my second choice, since I also use it as well, but not as often.

Long board, but it's the only thing I've tried at tne mo. Love the look of those flash little boards. Maybe one day. They'd be a damned sight easier to carry too!

glides like a longboard

It's supposed to be bigger today, apparently it was double over-head last night at Fistral, 15 people in, (no more summer crowds this weekend)

should chill out for the weekend (relatively), and clean up with southerly winds.
