Graham Marsden: the article is really helpful, thanks!!

Thanks, Graham.  I had looked at chatGPT before writing, and it tells me this:

CX = snappy, responsive, precise — good for aggressive carving and transitions between surfskate and skatepark riding.

C7 = flowy, smooth, surf‑oriented — great if you want the closest feel to actual surfing or enjoy long, sweeping turns.

I ride a 7ft6 surfboard and my current level is trimming in a straight line with smooth turns gradually being added on, which is why I thought of the C7.  Whereas for more vertical shortboard surfing I imagine CX would be better and thus recommended by Clay.  

But I don't know how much to trust chatGPT here...?
