Your opinion Czechmate. You may be right!!! Personally I'm stoked outa my tree to finally be a Billabong holder! Certainly weathered some heavyduty close-outs and got smashed on the inside! However, believe there will be a lull in the sets, and I will be positioned to get a spitting barrel when the next set lines up! But just may also snap my neck on the reef!!! Either way, am happy to be in the water!!! GLTA
