Randall,

That break is the bomb for a reef break and next door is Rock Pile, you can imagine that break. It's funny every summer when those breaks get big 8' plus theres that mosiac from the Hilton Hawaiian starring at you.

Jim..

I painted my 31 with Imron volkswagon yellow and the top side pepsi white. the paint was done seven years ago and still looks like it was done yesterday.

They have a new paint out by Geneisis which is a two part polyurathane that is real easy to apply.
