Finally got them at my local Costco and picked one up because of you. Thanks for the recommendation. This is my first longer board and it’s so easy to catch waves on after learning on a short board. Just struggle with making it out sometimes when there is a lot of waves crashing.
@@zay47green That’s great to hear, stoked! Yes you need to get good at the turtle roll or lifting your upper body off the board while submerging the board a bit allowing the water to flow in between you and the board. You just gave me an idea for a video 🤙🏾
Great video! Unfortunately so few of us get to surf beautiful fun little waves. I haven’t surfed in about 25 years and have found myself closer to the beach and this looks like it could be a great board for an old surf bum and for my older kids who are looking to learn. Mahalo🤙🏼
@@chasenbray Mahalos 🙏🏾 and yes perfect board for an old surf bum and kids to learn. Just taught my nephew how to surf on one 🤙🏾 below is a link to one of the videos of him learning on a Gerry ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-E6P0MUWPNPA.htmlsi=BJJ8Xl8Zjsp7cv3u
I got sick days after the brown water was gone. It stays dirty for days. Maybe go DH. I love my Gerry. For the past 3 years I’ve ridden it more than my other boards. The FCS style boxes let you put in your favorite fins. I ride keels and a nubster.🤙🏻
Just found the channel... Great stuff!! Just an FYI, I picked this board up on your recommendation today at the Waipio Costco, and it came boxed for Future fins, which is great for me.
Do you remember the morning that hurricane Iniki was hitting Kaua'i ? Talk about Brown water, the whole Beach Park was washed out all the way to ala Moana boulevard... I got the second to the last flight out before they closed HNL, headed straight Hilo after listening to civil defense sirens in Haleiwa going off since 4:30 in the morning. Could see bits of the Ala wai taking off... That's what it reminded me of when you showed all that brown water 🤙🏼 ho, nice that Costco special eh
@@NobuSurf was sketch bra, came down hard in Hilo landed like A bouncing beach ball. Surf was so good in town the day before that, crazy only three people died in total I think Kaua'i and Oahu combined 🤙🏼
@@louisrobinson4164 not a drop of water out of place, town was great everywhere. Plenty size, mostly uncrowded, best day south shore I ever surf in my life 🤙🏼
I had a 6’0” Catch Surf Skipper, have some videos of it on my channel. The board worked well but was $300 something and not sure it was any better then the sushi. Here’s one of the videos on the Skipper ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-V1AUkH6oE1g.htmlsi=FkAQe-Kh3La-KTZP
Aloha $99 i used to break boards when i was a teen and couldnt afford to buy a new one , so i switched to bodyboarding , mostly Makapuu and Sandys Alan Davis Sandys Coastline when i lived Kailua, but living near Waikiki now and 99$ i think i could handle Mahalo for video. Aloha DSC777
Right on bra, ya get em so fun! I just took it out near double overhead today. Even broke 2 of them in over head surf and Costco replaced them for me no questions asked 🤙🏾
