That looks sick Mark! Both shape and spray.
I remember being a grom of about 13, and seeing a board at Carey's surfshop at 'rilla with the same spray. I loved it and always wanted to have a board with that spray.

Re: new board porn%%%%
the sprays not bad, although i reckon you should've had bolts where the FCS stickers are.
could be the shape of yours I like the best Pridmore.

Re: new board porn%%%%
yeah, its been an idea in my head for only about 20 years, saw the rivets around the wheels on a hotted up Torana and thought it'd be cool on a board.....getting the silver to look like weathered steel was the challenge.....

Re: new board porn%%%%
Its going to have three FCS plugs set right back at the tail like a typical Mini-Simmons. Parallel or 10 degrees of toe-in, I haven't decided. First surf will probably be finless though MP
The glassing was a single 4oz patch on the bottom with fin patch, plus two 4oz patches on the top (and you could describe my glass job as a mess). I introduced some special new-age elements into the glass, heaps of air bubbles to help with buoyancy...
No colour, I thought the Surfblanks writing on the top will do for the time being. I don't know if it'll be worthy of lots of paint yet, we'll see. I'm just stupidly excited to finish it next weekend and get it into the water.

Re: new board porn%%%%
Yeah, lovely stuff Iggs.
Been toying with the idea of getting something similar but in the 6'9'' or 6'10'' range for cruisy point break that I sometimes visit.

Re: new board porn%%%%
Lovely looking HPS for more serious waves. Thats the type of board missing from my quiver, I have an obsession with variations of the small to medium wave board at the moment. It has left a big gaping hole in my quiver whenever the surf gets serious, i.e. my biggest board is a 6'0"! haha
Give us some ride reports after you have taken it around the racetracks mate![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
