Pyzel and John John Florence get busy in the shaping bay.
my question is which board to choose?
The ratskull or the nugget?
Both the rat skull and the nugget are small wave boards.
The nugget is slightly more performance focussed with a more refined outline and pulled in round tail. If you were after a board to surf small waves with a performance approach the nugget is the board for you.
If you were looking for a board that will provide you with heaps of paddle power and stability the rat skull is a great choice.

Hi, Can you please advise what the cross over between the nugget and the shortcut is. so when the nugget tops out and the smallest the shortcut works in if i was to use either as a daily driver type board.
Hi Chris, The nugget is super versatile and can be surfed in waves 1-7 ft. This is due to the extra width up the front of the board which allows for easy paddling and helps to get into waves earlier. The pin tail on the nugget holds really well in the barrel. You could use the nugget as a 1 board quiver. The shortcut is a great board for 2-5 ft if you want to ride something with a little more volume than your super high performance shortboard. It's a little thicker and wider than most performance shortboards but will still allow you to drawn tight turns and progress your surfing.


Sure, tourists boost local economies, but unless it's done respectfully, you'll never be truly welcome.
1. Go for as long as possible.
Also known as slow travel, this is a tough one for many North American travelers who get considerably less vacation time than Europeans, but it's important. I don't want to go anywhere on holiday for less than a month now. If this means banking vacation time and holding off a trip for several years, so be it. One should stay long enough in a place to make friends.
I steer clear of resorts and big chain hotels. Instead, the goal is to seek out small inns, hotels, or bed-and-breakfasts owned by locals, where I know my money will go directly to residents of the country, not a big international corporation.
It's a fair bet that tourists are more warmly welcomed by locals in unusual destinations than in popular ones, since they haven't worn out their welcome. This spreads the valuable tourist dollars further afield, instead of pouring them into an already-saturated market. Future off-the-beaten-track destinations on my list include the country of Georgia, Jordan, Corsica, and Basilicata in southern Italy.
4. Put down the camera.
Few things irritate me more than traveling surrounded by people snapping pictures. Since I'm not a professional photographer, I figure that unless I'm taking a picture of my family, there's always going to be a better shot out there of the same historical site or famous vista. So I consciously try to leave my camera in my pocket and pay attention to what's going on. It's amazing how a camera distracts from other sights, sounds, and interesting encounters that could otherwise happen.
The most respectful thing one can do, when planning to visit another country, is to study the language. This is more than learning key phrases or reading them phonetically from a guidebook. This is about learning how the language works. Study the grammar, build a vocabulary, and practice. It goes a long ways toward making a tourist stand out in the crowd and is almost always appreciated by locals.
Regardless of how much you learn, always talk to the locals. I know how much my parents appreciate this in their line of work, when they're treated by seasonal visitors as respected members of the community, rather than mere service providers and vacation-enablers.
6. Rethink what's truly relaxing.
With international travel being so cheap, there's a tendency to assume one should go far afield during vacation – but why? Sometimes there are better options closer to home that are easier to reach, cheaper to visit, and far more relaxing. For example, I regret jetting off to Costa Rica for our honeymoon seven years ago, when, really, all my husband and I wanted to do was sleep and take a break from parenting. We should've gone to a rustic Ontario inn for a week, paid a fraction of the cost, eaten like royalty, and not felt like we had to do a million touristy things just because we were there.

if some shenanigans resulted in some other nominee. >> and ted cruz mocked donald trump for pulling out the debate. the debate has now been canceled. sunlen serfaty has the latest. >> reporter: good morning, john and christine. donald trump is making it clear that he is looking ahead and he really wants this gop nominating process to come to a close. trump says he will not show up for the next debate in salt lake city, utah. he will give a policy speech in washington, d.c. to the pro-israel organization instead. after that, kasich said if trump is not debating, he will not either. all of this forced fox news to cancel it outright. the cruz campaign is hoping to compliment on this. mr. trump, if you won't debate
in utah, we'll bring the debate to you. >> i guess he doesn't like when anyone challenges him. he said a week ago he was eager to get one-on-one with me. well, this debate, the field is narrowed more and he could have had a direct debate with me and yet, donald is ducking. he's afraid of being challenged. >> the cruz campaign says that the cruz campaign will appear at the same speech where trump is speaking. he intendis to draw clear contrast. thank you. the governor of ohio john kasich is dismissing claims he is playing a spoiler role. he insists he is trying to win. after a win in ohio, kasich drew a big crowd in philadelphia. he says he expects to be a viable candidate come convention time. >> it is unlikely that anybody
will achieve enough delegates to avoid a convention. for you worried about a convention, it is in the open. it is total transparency. they will look at two or three things if that what happens. politics is so crazy. you never know what will happen. they will look at somebody who can actually be president of the united states and has a record of accomplishments, not just talk. they will wonder about who can win a general election. who can win ohio? >> they don't have the right tone or philosophy. >> kasich picked up the endorsement of james imhoff last night. haley now supports ted cruz. on the democratic side, hillary clinton's campaign is trying to capitalize on the victories this past tuesday with a statement calling her lead

and shooting victim gabby giffords. >> we have a gun violence problem. so i'm voting for hillary clinton. she's tough. she will stand up to the gun lobby. >> reporter: joe johns, cnn, phoenix, arizona. >> thank you, joe. on top of the tv ads, hillary clinton with a cameo on a sitcom last night. clinton has had trouble with young women in the campaign so far. >> we need to drum up excitement for the campaign. do everything we can. you know what i'll do? >> look at that. >> i thought this would be really good for office morale. isn't she great?

federal bench in d.c. years ago. saying this should not happen now. mcconnell is saying it is not about the person, but the principle. the president should not put forward the nominee in this environment. somebody who will shift the balance of the court before the nomination. saying let the people decide. the white house wants to present garland as the perfect nominee. someone so moderate with stellar credentials that republicans would look as bad as possible. the white house wants to apply re pressure coming from the outside and convince republicans to give him a chance. if they won't, the white house would love to see political damage coming out of this. the president was clear in the rose garden saying if republicans go down this road of obstruction, it would reduce confidence in the supreme court
and judicial system as a whole that democracy in america would suffer from the fight. as the white house press secretary put it, we are looking for a bit of fairness. >> thank you, michelle. attorneys for sergeant bowe bergdahl released statements over the publicity facing their client. bergdahl has been diagnosed with a psychiatric doctor. bergdahl claims he wandered from his post in 2009 to draw attention to what he called bad decisions. bergdahl faces desertion charges and military trial this summer. deadly flooding hits the south and governor of texas is warning this disaster could get worse. we have new developments next.

Cheers, jeers for #Mnangagwa
Africa / 22 December 2017, 08:54am / Peta Thornycroft

Pretoria - After more then three hours of pushing and shoving outside their embassy in Pretoria, thousands of Zimbabweans eventually got to see the man they wanted to praise, thank, or harangue as a mass murderer.
New Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa and the embassy were overwhelmed by the crowds, roads were blocked and people were standing shoulder to shoulder outside and then inside the embassy. The vast crowd pushing forward in the mid-afternoon heat nearly bent the huge irons gates at the entrance to the embassy, until officials eventually had to let people in one by one, without searching them.
Eventually, Mnangagwa and the embassy were ready for the extraordinary moment. He threw away his speech, cracked jokes and smiled, laughed and also spoke of forgiveness.

Is Emmerson Mnangagwa a fresh start?
"We will never make the same mistakes again," he promised. But outside the embassy a few protesters carried placards that said their families were slain when Mnangagwa was security minister three years after independence, in 1980. The governing Zanu-PF government under the then prime minister Robert Mugabe sent in North Korean-trained troops to obliterate the then Zapu opposition party in the Ndebele-speaking parts of the country.
Thousands died, and thousands more fled to South Africa.
"This man killed our families," said a young woman from Bulawayo. "My mother had to bury my uncle at that time," she said. "This man (Mnangagwa) killed him."
Another protester, who remained outside the embassy even after Mnangagwa began speaking inside, said: "We heard what he said in Harare, that he is going to pay white farmers compensation for the farms they lost.
"But why will they get paid before us? Our families were killed," said one middle-aged man who was visibly distressed. He has lived in Joburg for more than 30 years.
"Our people were slaughtered, and that is why we are in South Africa. We need reconciliation and truth first," said James Sibanda, 52 . "They killed my father. We had no human rights," he said. His family used to live in a village about 20km from Gwanda in southern Zimbabwe, he added.
But many others said they had come to the embassy to praise Mnangagwa, because he had "overthrown Mugabe We never expected it. We don't even know him (Mnangagwa), we left because there were no jobs, we had to come here," said a young mother with a baby, who arrived in South Africa after the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) came within a whisker of defeating Zanu-PF in the 2000 elections.

"I want to see him. Yes, I want to go home but there is nothing at home now.
"There are no jobs. I have no job in South Africa, but somehow we are better off here than at home," she said.
Mnangagwa told the huge crowd about his escape from Zimbabwe after Mugabe sacked him as vice president early last month. "I walked 30km in Mozambique, after I learnt that there were plans to eliminate me."
Mnangagwa walked in Mozambique at night. He said he remembered he had a card in his pocket and called the man whose details were on the card to pick him up.
The man was among those who welcomed Mnangagwa at the embassy. Mnangagwa then flew to South Africa, where he said he spent nearly three weeks as a "diasporan".
"Within six months we are going into elections, including the presidential poll, which I hope I am going to win.
"But Zimbabwe is not the country of Zanu-PF. It is not the country of the MDC. It is the country of Zimbabweans May we together agree that bygones be bygones and look into the future with hope."
