Looks nuts. Maybe it'd be fun in drainpipe point waves, inside out Kirra or something. Hard to see it working everyday type conditions.

Well, the shaper wasn't tempted to surf it and just used it as a wall hanging, so that gives a fair idea of its function.

If that's a 6ft board, Manuel looks about 4'11

PCC 6'8 single middie-shape in near perfect condition, cronulla, only $550 incl 8' fin.

6months ago I wouldn't have thought twice, this would have been in my quiver by now.

2 kids and a financial plan has really taken the fun out of impulsive surfboard purchasing.

Such a bargain and would have sat nicely in my quiver between my 6'1 and 7'7 of the same shape. that board had 4ft high tide point written all over it. Now, I'll live in regret forever. Especially at that price. They go for about $1000 new.
