Mitchell Rae flex tails
Posted: Thu Apr 12, 2012 2:16 pm
Am in the market for a new board, and stopped in to see Mitchell Rae recently. He did a pretty good sales pitch on his flex tails.
I've come across a few mentions of them in these forums, notably Shearer's classified ad last year that turned into a rant about guinea pigs. And various people who've surfed em in Indo and report they go pretty good in long fast hollow waves.
But, was wondering if anyone has tried the fish/fun board quad set up with the flex tail, in Oz beach break conditions? I'm ready to lay down 800 or so pingers, but not on a gimmick that won't work outside of Indo.
