are surftech boards any good??

[Beanpole]

I reckon epoxy and fish are a good mix.
High performance Mals too.
Logs probably not but I’d buy one cause I wouldn’t lug one of thos fcukers around.
My high performance epoxy Mal noserides like a dream.

I had a good look at a mate's new Banks 7' twin pin.

It was an epoxy board with carbon fibre cloth. One of the best boards I've seen. My mate is very hard on boards but this one could last a long time even though he's a full time surfer here who goes through a lot of boards

Stringerless EPS?

[Cranked]

Not sure, I'll look closer next time, its got a lot going on with it. But I think its a carbon strip. He's a good surfer, spent 10 years surfing around Porto and another 10 here.

I'll ask Jim what's going on with it, is it a one off or a likely future?

Nice one.

Flax and basalt seem like a nice lam.

That's it, maybe the exact board.

Edit: No it's not, that one is a thruster.

I saw on the Surftech sight that Kym Thompson is making boards with a similar construction.

Kym died in a motorcycle accident last year.

Bummer, he always seemed a nice guy.

[Beanpole]

I wonder how that fits with the surfboard making.

Ahhh bugger. Must have missed that. Met Kym a few times in the 80’s and had one of his boards. Lovely bloke.

Don’t ride motorcycles of any description in SE Asia. I was just in Vietnam and saw some major stacks.

[Beanpole]

Vietnam is fcuking hairy on the roads. Not to mention super congested. Bangkok is as crowded but they drive way harder in Vietnam.

[marauding mullet]

I remember getting a taxi in to Saigon from the airport, fcuking terrifying.
What were you doing in Vietnam pants? Work or pleasure, or both?

[Pants]

Pleasure mate.

Yeh for sure, Hanoi is worse than Saigon!

[steve shearer]

What sort of pleasure?

[Pants]

Travel pleasure. Not small handed Viet babes making said cock look bigger than it is.
