Finally got a demo on the road! It is currently at SHQ in Melbourne for those in Vicco who would like to try it. Not sure of its exact journey but the next stop will probably be the Gold Coast. Stay tuned on dates.
There is also a demo board at Balmoral Paddle Surf in Sydney. So far we have surfed it and SUPA raced it into 3rd at the Snowy BOP race. Keen to see how she goes downwind in the bay boys! The windier and choppier the better

You might even get me on this one AA. The video was a little softer than your last MTB ride.

Ooh Yeah Teatree! Your local would have to be the spot for this board. It just Luuv's big fat wide ones. You too been rearanging your face mate This was my effort a few weeks ago. Bikes fine The impact was nothing compared to two hours in the dentist chair

I rekon the Alley on the big days and that 12,6 would be a match made in heaven.

Was sitting here scratching my head thinking HTF did he do that SUPing? Just took a sneaky peak at the 12'6 at SHQ (on my way home from an incident-free bike ride). Looks pretty cool (a lot of vee underneath, maybe tippy for us OFBs )

The 12'6'' Hull Ocean also looks ideal for long coast runs as a wave hunting machine. An ideal run would be say Shoreham to Flinders, stopping at the Farm and Lefts and Rights to pick off as many uncrowded waves as you like and paddle back. From all reports so far it surfs amazing for a board of it's size, with all that vee. An ideal 1 board quiver that does it all from flatwater, downwinders and surf! Pop in for a demo in the next 3 weeks before it heads north. Luke

All good Rocket! Thanks mate! It was a few weeks ago now and there was more damage to the ego than the body! I count myself lucky. After 12 years I've only had about 3 decent smacks. You need to get smacked occasionally as a little reminder. Keeps you sharp! Riverider, at this stage no for Tassie. Have a chat with Spencer though....
