Next board ?

[WANDERER]

next board will hopefully be a Tyler 'Point' model bought in person from El Segundo...

I'm due to get my new 8'6" today

the 7' will always be the main board, especially for Gunna where it goes brilliantly.

Big Left at Flinders possibly?

Yep

One of my favorite surf spots, next to Gunnamatta of course.

Now I know who to look for and snake next time I'm down at Gunna or Flinders

Did you buy that new dress to go with your 8'6" like I suggested Hatchy?

Too long a paddle . . . MAN UP

Fcuk mate I'll buy the matching hand-bag, jewellery and high-heels because I'm over the 500 metre paddle just to get out the back

Nice!! Given the current dollar you could buy one cheaper from the man himself, rather than a Southcoast ghost shape.

I've got my box of boards arriving from California early next week - Long process but it will be worth it!!

Last time I contacted Tyler about a custom craftsman I was quoted about $2300 US for the board to be shipped over here. I think they retail for a bit under US $2000. I'd rather an Aussie made for the price. Have to admit though if I was going overseas I'd be bringing back a Coop, Bing and Tyler for sure. C'est la vie.

A Southcoast ghost shaped Tyler was $2,500 AU last time I was in Quicksilver Torquay. At an exhange rate of 91 cents to the US dollar, based on $2,300 US, you would pay an additional $27 AU for a board shaped by Tyler. Hmmm.....

I wouldn't buy any board from a Torquay surfshop.

They are usually ridiculously over-priced

Aye totally.

I has seen some absolute dogs of boards there, pressure dented to sh.it, poorly patched dings everywhere and sticker prices on the wrong side of $600 for fcuking short-boards.

Boards in Victoria are generally priced higher than other states anyway. I have only ever purchased one from Victoria.. the others I've owned were from interstate (1 Noosa, 2 Byron Bay, 3 Nth Beaches Sydney and a GSI.. shhh don't tell anyone!).. and now the latest batch are from California.

A lot of boards from Noosa and Byron aren't too cheap either.
So what did you get from the states?
