I took advantage of the sale at Evogear promo and bought a LF Venture board understanding that it wasn't the greatest thing out there. But it was affordable and wouldn't make me cry if the kiddos decided they didn't like surfing. The board arrived last Thursday and girls were begging me all weekend to let them try it out. We only have the GI system, but I remembered Ed & Al's posts about keeping it simple, so we filled what we had, threw everybody to one side (I stood on the ski locker, like Al) and the girls HAD A FREAKING BLAST! Made my Father's Day one that I won't forget.

I know this wave is a joke to most of you, but take a look at that smile on my daughter's face. Think she cares?

BTW - fly high 750 & tsunami are already ordered.
