“I’m stoked on that board being on the cover, it is eight years old, wrapped in flax, hasn’t aged a day in its life and was the only board I took to Indo last year for a month-long trip. These flax boards are so light, flexy and tough that I trusted going throughout Indo with just that 6″3 and I came home in a wheelchair with two busted knees before that board buckled in any way. Maybe I would have been better off if it broke instead of me.”
