P.s have u considered a tow in model?
Yeah but I can't be f vcked making stuff that I don't ride, it's a bore.

There's lots of sh*t that I won't make, like just about all normal surfboard designs. I only make what interests me.

Re: Time for the rubber to hit the road...

Roy. Reconsider....your goal is to get your board ridden and design proved (or otherwise) In solid waves. Take the chance....why not get a under ground n.z charger on it? You could have results by yesterday......why stall the testing ? P.s ive never heard of any your big time "name" team riders pre...

Re: Time for the rubber to hit the road...

Tooshay Battery... I suppose that's what we'll have to do then., we'll just keep going until we get there. Anyway a couple of video updates are here, now that I've tamed the camera person it's probably going to be impossible to shut me up, and talking's a bit less tedious than typing with two finger...

Re: Time for the rubber to hit the road...

Thanks I appreciate your input but really wtf?.... I have two of the world's most successful and famous big wave riders lining up to go for it and it's like 'never mind about that just send one board to a relative unknown who is publicity shy... makes no sense really... and it's almost like a 'get b...

Re: Time for the rubber to hit the road...

Steve was riding one of our Spitfires in a bonzer recently as I recall and might have some feedback on the fin size. Price for a 6.5" is AU$95 but I might have something suitable aand cheaper s a 'second' in either Spitfire or Gull Wing. The seconds are all good, usually just a slight streak in the ...

I'm extremely interested in this Roy. Give us a bit more background pls. It's all here Steve: http://igg.me/at/Ghost-riders It started with a conversation which Jeff Goulden, Maurice Cole and I had recently. I'd been going on about how great this design will be for huge waves for years, but making ...

Time for the rubber to hit the road...

What's happening is that we have a crowdfunding event on the go with Anthony Tashnick, Grant 'Twiggy' Baker, Chris Mumford, Heath Joske and Jeff Goulden on board, I'm very grateful to them for putt...
