New board

**veniceskim4** · 05-30-2006, 12:11 PM

Back to noob questions. We went to cook out at Mana beach and I ended up fishing off the little bridge across the street after eating. I was going to walk home after fishing and I let my parents and Uncle pack up the stuff. The next day we were going to stumpy's and my parents, out of everything they could have left, didn't grab my board. I asked around and it's gone for good. I'm going to get a new board real soon. Since I hear so many good things about exile I think I'll be getting one. If anyone could give me help with what rocker and stuff would be good for the gulf I'd appreciate it. I know I could look it up but my sister crashed are other computer with fracking myspace bull shit so I won't be able to get on much until it's fixed.

damn... that really sucks about your other board, sorry dude. Yeah, I have a Exile Hybrid on the east coast of florida, I love it, but I dont know what would be good for the Gulf, I know the fortified should be good over there, check SkimCentral for that.

How about leaving your board on top of your car and driving away not realizing you didn't put it in the back seat? I, myself, have never done it, but two of my friends have. One just left the beach and realized it by the time he got home he'd left it on top of the car, and the other got dropped off at my friends house (same one as earlier), sat his board on top of his car, drove away, got to his house 5 mins later (lives just down the road), realized he left his board on top of his car and heads back to my friends house to see where it might have fallen off, notices my friend's outside in the middle of the road yelling: "STOP!" and laughing at the same time because the board has been on top of his car the whole time, driving to and from his house.

I forgot my board at the beach once... left it on the side of the road about 2 blocks from the beach. Luckily it wasnt on the main strip or it would have def been gone. I ended up leaving it there for about 20 mins by the time I got back there.

i would probally shoot myself if i lost my board man, that sux. but yea if your getting an exile i would say get a 5/8 with the hybird rocker

I didn't forget it, thats why I am getting a new board soon. Since my parents forgot it they are willing to give me some money. It was lieing next to the table to and it's white so I don't know how the managed to not see it. If I would have forgot it I would be working right now. How do I order it with the colors and logo I want? Do I just email Peluso?

**veniceskim4** · 05-30-2006, 04:21 PM

I'll PM Steve about priceing and stuff first. I'm thinking S-glass hybrid with a yellow top, orange E ball and a red bottom.

Might want to check a local shop or even skimshop or skimcity to see if they have any boards with the colors you want. Could take a few months to get your new board if you order it direct from exile so i hear.

As for losing stuff...the only thing i can think of is losing a quiksilver cell wetsuit top at the beach

...only had it like a week.

**veniceskim4** · 05-30-2006, 05:19 PM

I know people on here have ordered from exiles because they wanted certain colors or other things. If anyone has done that how long did it take you? I found a board in my size and colors I like on skimshop but I don't know when I'm ordering it. Hopefully it will be there.

**Teddy Hartford** · 05-30-2006, 07:21 PM

I got one in like 9 days. Another took 5 weeks. Depends how busy they are.

**SkimSF** · 05-31-2006, 11:58 AM

Mine took a week from ordering to arrival. Decide what you want and just call exile and ask how long it will be.

**veniceskim4** · 05-31-2006, 12:08 PM

There's one on skimshop that I want to get. I only need 20 more dollars then I can get it. If that boards gone by they time I'm ready to order than I'll just order from exile. The only reason I'm not ordering from them is I want to get the board before July because I'm going to Jupiter then.
