I found this story humorous and thought I would share. We received one of our Paipos back for repair. The whole nose was really torn up. I asked Austin if he wanted me to put a fin rope bead on the nose to strengthen it because this guy was really hard on the nose. He laughed and said no and then relayed this story to me. " The guy was surfing in Costa Rica at a river mouth break. Not sure exactly which break. It had really rained the night before but it was going off so he braved all the diseases and paddled out. He dropped in on a peeling right and suddenly noticed all the coconuts flowing out of the river mouth due to the rain. After about his 12th collision in the coconut mine field the nose was trashed." So watch out for those killer nuts.

That would be Terry (aka "fire08") on these forums. Must have been moving blazing fast to smash the nose up that badly! _________________ rodNDtube
