Hey Mark. Only had 1 surf on it, been a bit hard to get out there with the new bub around, and the waves have been pretty lame.

Surfed it on the wednesday week and a half back, in clean 4-5ft grinding lefts at N Sunshine. Only got the chance for a few turns, as it was mainly just a barrel-athon. But it felt just like a normal board, in regards to flex and just general feel underfoot. Really strong compression wise, should be incredibly durable in that regard.

Lookin forward to making some more this way, really different way of making boards that opens your mind to different materials and applications. 1 idea just keeps leading to another.

Congratulations on the new baby DAD.
Boy or a girl?
Didn't bother telling me about the baby the other day.
Tsk, tsk...to busy talking about boards. :oops:

A little bit of creative editing shows the true story about how Tigers get Cubs, congratulations to you both :lol:
Jaffa, I'm opinionated, and I'm sometimes right. So?

Yeah thanks guys, she's all kinds of awesomeness.

She's been to the markets a few times Pete. But the Tigress is more than a little paranoid about everything ATM, with it being flu season and all. So she keeps a rigorously enforced exclusion zone. You know what they say, "the 1st ones made of glass...."
