Yahoo 6'6" x 2 5/8 x 18 3/4. 2-6 foot no worries at all. Even bigger if I could paddle into it. Fast, loose enough and excellent drive. Single into double concave.

Really tough one. Currently I guess it would be a FireWire Baked potato. Goes in anything up to head high and is a blast to ride.

Probably my current board 6' x 19.5 x 2.5 Lost Sub Driver. So much fun in 2-4ft surf.

What do you mean? It's a custom. My shaper, Phùc Nóh, sprayed it that way just for me.

Toss up between one of Tom Curren's old Merricks that I managed to get my hands on in my youth, and a Muzza Bourton that had an unpleasant meeting with the cliffs at Ulus. The best ones always die young...

I think the best ones always come off the secondhand racks
Not sure why but the discarded and unloved boards hiding out in the corner of the local surf shop seem to be full of surprises.
A few guys ideas that didn't quite come together for the original owner show a bit of magic for the next person.
