I'm clearing out my garage and getting rid of a Lost 6'6" Trifish (old handshape from Biolos with artwork by Drew Brophy) and a Backyard Boards 6'8" thruster shaped by Pat Mulhern with artwork by Glomb.
If either (or both) of those sound up your alley, let me know. I'll probably just put ads up on here later today anyway.

o by the way im new to surfing so im looking more towards bigger boards because im trying to learn where to place my feet correctly but with the shortboard im using now its pretty difficult for me, also the thicker the board better for me i think

I live right across the street from Kite Beach in Juno/Jupiter ... a few blocks north of the pier.
If you're looking for a floaty shortboard that's easier to learn on than a potato chip, then the 6'6" is a good choice. If you were thinking of something longer -- i.e. a longboard or a funshape -- then I can't help you.
The short story is that I custom ordered this board about ten years ago, before Lost was the megabrand that it has become today. I didn't use it too much, but it did get damaged by the airline on a trip to Panama. All that damage was repaired, and the board wasn't really surfed again (it's been in storage for five or more years).
It's a nice shape that has lots of life left. Good for a wide range of waves. The dimensions are ...
6'6" x 20 1/16 x 2 7/16
I have more pics, but here are two ...

I just dropped the price on 2ndlight from $225 to $180. That's as low as I'll go. Lemme know if you're into it. Oh, I will include a set of FCS G3 fins.

The second pic shows the big area that was damaged. Basically, a chunk was taken out near the rear (swallowtail area). There were a few other minor dings. The dude who repaired it did a very good job.
If you want, I can e-mail you more detailed pics. Or, you can come check it out in person. Your call. I'll PM you my info.
Thanks,
Nilus
