After seeing those photos, i'm really spewing i didn't have the time to come down the coast for the sunday.
Glad you caught some waves, and more importantly, some decent pics.

Cheers to both lessormore and salty for your photographic generosity. Spewing lessormore didn't get a few of my early waves... I was less kooky and the waves were better out the back... but murphy's law was just a little too strong that day. Trying to tee up a handover time with Faniel. Was initiall...

Followers of the bat, Had a nice little session at the wall this morning. Bumped into Lessormore at the showers on the way to the carpark. Who was kind enough to get his camera out and video my last two kooky waves. Keep and eye out for the footage, i haven't seen it, but it won't be anything exciti...

Just took the bat for a quick surf at Cronulla Point. Pretty shit conditions... fat and shoulder high take offs. Only really got one wave to myself so hard to say what i think of it... Was pretty stoked though. It was the shortest board i've ever paddled out, and i got up first go with no dramas. Ju...

I'm so keen to get on the Bat...
It's driving me BATTY!!!

I'm in cronulla... PM me if the bat is free over the next week or so...

Sold the mal.

Got a nice price for it.

I'm still on the look out for a Powerglide.

Took a Surftech McTavish 9'1" for a test drive yesterday. Had a ball.

Looking at making a purchase really soon.

Cheers Primore, Well it's nice to know that i've got a quality board on my hands. haven't been able get the dimensions... Boards in Narrabeen, i'm in Cronulla, definately have them by friday. Called Grant Miller the other day and got myself on waiting list for a second hand powerglide. Can't wait. I...

Les Purcell 9'6'' single-fin.
I've tried to find some details on the board but it's almost impossible, as Les stopped shaping in 1995.
I can email photos after Tuesday 21st Oct.
Board's watertight, with the usual compressions.
Board's too long for my liking.

I really can't wipe that smile off my face. It's been there since that photo was taken on saturday... my cheeks are starting to get a little sore. I'm pretty stoked there's no waves at the moment... I thought it would be the other way around! Hopefully there's a wave around on Sunday arvo. there'll ...

Mate i'm pretty happy with how the artwork turned out... I don't know if you noticed but the artwork is straight off the tattoo on my right arm. Something i designed when i was 19 and in training as a Naval Communicator. Good to see the governments money was spent wisely huh ;) The symbol is Japanes...

I've got another week to wait before i can surf it....

here's some pics

Here's some pics of my new board. 6'8'' x 21'' x 2 3/4'' FCS M7 fins Can't surf it till saturday... it's going to be a long week. It's been an absolute pleasure dealing with Grant Miller from start to finish. Can't speak highly enough of the man's professionalism. http://i322.photobucket.com/albums/...

I ended getting black rails and some black artwork... i'll try and post pics when i get it...

10 days to go!!!!

thanks for your input guys.

i've got a friend that's an airbrush artist... i might just get her to paint me a wave of something like that on the bottom and leave the deck white just to be in the safe side.

I'm getting a 6'8" Miller Waterskate shaped for me, and as it's my first custom board, I want to get a different paint job on it. At this stage i'm thinking about having it all black with a white pinstrip alround, and navy blue Miller signs on the deck. What do you reckon... does all black look good...
