Hi guys,I think at last count there were 6 computer shaping companies on Sydney's Northern Beaches, but are there any companies in Australia that can actually 3-D SCAN a 3-D shape and get it right the first time ?? ....the only dead accurate scanner is on the KKL Byron Bay....although pre-shapes ta...

Roy , will there ever be a point in your life when you cease to ride on the coat tails of well known surfing identities , in an effort to lift your online persona out of mediocrity ?

Fin boxes are manufactured straight........and bottom curves are curved 99.99% on the time...its impossible to install a slide box correctly , without grinding it to suit the tail ro...
