Peanut's First Session

Bay Street, Sunday, 11/15/2009.

A little gutless. Took out the peanut (used 9' 11" Infinity Cluster V) and enjoyed it quite a bit. Fell off the first few times, but got the hang of it. Paddles pretty much the same as my 9' 6" longboard. The extra length is counteracted by the increased nose rocker. On the Munster Mobile, I'll choke up to catch the gutless tweeners and pearl the board on takeoff. Not so with the peanut. Didn't pearl it once. I'm waiting for Sunset to work so I can try it at a point break.

Towards the end of the session, it really backed off. I loaned the peanut to Fess and Shawn to give them a try and rode Travis' Speed Shape. Not enough float for me.
