@Darrick, absolutely, that was a fun day surfing banks.
We were near Mono Lake again, until yesterday. Drove home to Oregon last night. It is raining. ; ) Enjoy the snow up there for me.
I am looking forward to reading other posters thoughts on this topic.

BG, do you have a Furburg or have you ridden one?
No. I read what you guys say about them though and no offense but some of the things I read make me chuckle. Things like the rocker being “perfectly matched” to the scr for insrance. Rocker is constantly variable so that goes out the window the second you weight or…

Have you adjusted your heel cup forward as much as possible?
This. I did the same for my ABurners and it did the trick (except I moved them for sz 8 foots). Get you some locktite!

Nice boards Bob! How are you doing your sidewalls? Are you vacuum pressing or neumatic?

Hey nw, what changes in flex did you experience with splitting the hovercraft?
