Re: Quiver thread
A mate of mine with connections told me outright NOT to buy a certain board with high falutin 20% lighter 20% stronger salesman pitch as the tech was having serious problems.
Qld label, made in Thailand, now going at least 20% to 30% off the original silly asking price.

Re: Quiver thread
You'd think they'd test them out for a year or something with their team riders first huh?!.
Re: Quiver thread
They probably did

But who is this mysterious 'they'.
And what was their role in the US election??

Re: Quiver thread
Surely they would've picked up on production issues then? Or maybe they were happy they got the tech perfect? Designed to fail after 6 months?! LolDavros wrote:They probably did

Re: Quiver thread
Really, it's a great business model. It's a product people readily but knowing there's absolutely no warranty whatsoever. A bad run is just bad luck for the people who have bought them.
Re: Quiver thread
To be fair the guy said they were working on the problems and seemingly sorting it, but the first few runs had issues with a lot of denting in short periods and some boards creasing in tiny surf.
Re: Quiver thread
And knowing the faults after that period still released the product to the market. Microsoft do it why not JS.saltman wrote:Direct from the siteDavros wrote:They probably did

Re: Quiver thread
I felt a couple up on the weekend. They feel brittle in your hands compared to dynocores or even ff from Hayden
Re: Quiver thread
Egg shell core, the latest and greatest tech, will have you dinging rails and creasing decks like the pros in no time!. Don't be left behind, grab one this summer!

You'd have much better chance of getting a refund from Microsoft. Taking a surfboard back because it failed within 3 months? Haha good luck
