SCHh-WeEEEeT!!! Yeah, you don't wanna' say you're going to go "wax your stick" to the wrong crowd ;-) (nttawwt) Always good to clarify. Good van pcture; I haven't been on a board since its paint was fresh. Long story during the intro of short boards. - g

Perfect composition and DOF. Makes me want to go surfing...and I don't even know how.

Surfboard wax provides traction.

Gives a sticky, bumpy surface for the soles of your feet to adhere to. A surfboard is basically a piece of foam encased in fiberglass. Imagine standing barefoot on the hood of a Corvette as it is driven downhill at 30 miles an hour. That would be the rough equivalent of riding down the face of a 'big' wave. The waves I ride would probably equate better to standing barefoot on the hood of a Corvette as it tools around a quaint school-zone, but you get the picture.

why does it need waxing? sorry - showing my ignorance here, but... ?? it doesn't have any hair!

I can feel the love.

Excellent. :) Nice board; nice shot. I really like the perspective and DoF. The vicarious part is good too.

It looks like it is pointed in the right direction!
