Hello everyone!
Thanks for tuning in.
Today I’m continuing with my column, “what they ride” which features local and regional surfers and their current favorite boards. Today we have local legend Andy Lange! “Toyota Andy” is the man and I love surfing with him. Unlike most people he likes to share waves and is stoked as can be when you get a good wave. I strive to be like Andy in the water and he has become a great friend. Andy is the reason why 90% of the local surfers drive Toyotas 😉
Back to the topic at hand… Andy is a big fan of the Firewire boards. He started with the Potato models and usually picks up a new model or two annually to try out. Recently he tried out the Slater Designs No Brainer and has fallen in love(sorry Deb)..
Surfer: Andy Lange
height- 6’2″
weight- 177 lbs
board: Slater Designs No Brainer model
5’10” x 19 3/4″ x 2 5/8″ 34L with Futures quad set up
A man of few words, this is what Andy has to say about his No Brainer: “I like how it’s super easy to ride, paddles well and I know they say it’s for crap waves but it barrel rides so good! Cut backs, the works… I love it! ” Andy always rocks a quad set up for instantaneous speed and flow along with that low entry rocker. The swallow tail on the No Brainer gives a little board some bite and pop off the top. I have one of these boards and its a little missile in the right conditions!
Love tap on my No Brainer this summer.
