Forbidden Knowledge

Post image

I asked ♊️ what is the most core body board brand and I keep getting this error. Eventually I got put in AI timeout. Apparently this is forbidden knowledge akin to asking how to split an atom? 🤷‍♂️

AI is inaccurate, using it for purchase decisions is still fraught with danger. Especially with such a niche sport, I would trust other boogs here above ai.

You are right. I was just being silly with the clanker and thought it was funny that this topic is safety gated.

No friends was core AF. Owner riders all the best in their time. Wrote back to fans. Not afraid to surf slabs. Actively toured self funded videos that wrote the creative script for most surf vids today.

Manny and Ross were such cool dudes too. At least from what I can remember being a kid going around to their events and video premiers with my pops.

Multiple choice 2 blew my freaking mind when I was a wanna be grom in grade school.

Yeah for sure. I wrote to both a couple years ago. Manny was such a sweet dude. Ross was good to get back to me but he comms were pretty weird.

There may be some arguments but board shapers that are boogies is the start for me. Ben Severson for BSD and Jay Reale for Tribe stick out in my mind as far as core goes. I'm sure there are more. Triad, science and hub are all bigger names that still retain their "coreness".

Custom X is made in cali and they support local riders across the country. I had a board that got damaged in shipping and they made an identical replacement and had me send the damaged one to a team rider (I think the post service put something heavy on the box bc it was warped and the board felt really flexy like the single stringer was broken.)

is this a legitimate use of work time
