With everyone getting new boards I decided to go blog shopping and pick out a few for my Dream Quiver. Even if for a few moments I can dream of having these boards in my possession. Who knows, someday I will? (Manny, Dennis, you want to hook a blogger up?) After looking around for a while I found a couple that caught my eye. Since this is only a dream I'm going to have a big quiver so there are plenty more blogs to look through. For now these will be the first two I add to my collection.
(originally posted as a 5'11" but I'm stuck on my magic number.) What can I say. You have to love Manny's work. His boards are like eye candy. I believe this is the the same board Eli rode at Black's that day David got shots. Oh my. If I get the board could I surf like that?

If you are going to own a longboard it has to be a Murphy in my book. Especially in Leucadia. Not many people know this but the Iron Cross and the Bear surfboards at the Longboard Grotto were all shaped by Dennis. I don't own a longboard right now and need one in my quiver so this is a must have. Chris Miller has one that I've ridden and it is a really fun board. It's light, it can turn and it is super fun to (attempt) to nose ride. I'm not known to venture far away from my fish but when I do, this is the board for me. It's almost not fair though, I get entirely to may waves. I almost feel bad while in the line up. ALMOST.
