Alaia or Lord Board?

Ryan Birch, and I (with some clamping support from Mike Beckwith) put this together. It is a alaia with lots of float and a Lord Board (see Hydrodynamica) with more structure. First couple runs have been a success. It was a shot in the dark, but there is a ton of potential. This one is 4'6.''

    I gotta try something like this soon, Jon. Not that I can surf like Ryan, but he makes them look so fun.

    Very interesting Jon. by now everyone has seen Ryan shredding his chopped down cooler lid and I have been wondering if anyone would ever bother to firm the notion up some and make a harder wearing version of the Lord Board. This thing looks great. I have been thinking about knocking up a hollow wooden version of it maybe even with fins. Im thinking something between the Lord board and the Bing Speed Square...It's a crazy dream I know but we need dreams now more than ever.

    Carve On!
