Surfing

if you could be any type of surfboard what would you be and why?

I saw this question in a surfing mag and thought it was interesting, expect the full question was asking if you you could transform into a surfboard for a week and keep all of your senses what famous surfer would be be the board of and what do you think you would learn from a proceptive of a surfboard that will affect your surfing ability. I thought the question as a little strange so I would like to know what type of surfboard you would be transformed into and how that would effect your surfing?

1. billabong model 4, because all wax sticks on for a long time!! tHIS IS FANTASTIC!!
2. Ummm...Holly Becks surfboard. Cause she's hot. If not maybe someone like Alex Knost, Joel Tudor or Rob Machado's board. Something cruisey with more flow to it than a short board.
3. Proctor Blackbird...its so quick, responsive and light. It's epic...
4. I would be a 6'1" Tokoro! I would be more concerned about who was riding me than what type of surfboard I was. So I am going to have to be a Tokoro surfboard for a chick although, if she's hot, I might be a little stiff for her. Any day would be a good day, just make sure you live somewhere tropical, Hawaii of course, so that she isn't in a wetsuit.
5. i would be the 9'2" pacific style pintail i own now. it was my first board & no matter how many boards i have in the rest of my life...it will be the first board i stood up on & have gotten some really long, fun rides on it. i've also gotten really worked on it, but that's the beauty of surfing...
