Nice looking board Lacey. Are you going to fill us in on some stats and when is the maiden voyage? No step rail either.

^^^^he is just being a rebel now hardcore urban shootout board pics

board features massive nose concave with a thin tip, flat deck, chambered rail and hp thin tail. the nose takes a bit of getting used to and dale told me this would be the case went out tonite at the alley 3 to 4 ft low tide glassy- very much suited to shortboards. didn't get a lot of waves- old leggie broke at the board end, tied that up then the leg end broke so more swimming than surfing and was over finned with the s9 side fins very fast speedy board with a shortboard rail feel. i would have no second thoughts about going for barrels on this board - the feel and hold is so positive. i can't say that about most sups i've surfed

tail looks great

Looks unreal great shape how many lts did it come out at love the tail

Any shots of the new race board yet ?Also what width have you gone with the 8/7 Going to get dale to cut me a 8/0 what do you think .

Nice Lace went out this morning at the Alley so packed and cold for the crap conditions , where are you surfing tomorrow.

But anything would look better than the RED 808 I saw Lacey with today Lacey will fill in the blanks

stimo, a couple of shots of the 14' racer dw board. washed off, reading for final coat, final sanding and painted tomorrow night. i asked rounder rails and bit less tail rocker then the other one. minor personal tweaks

Some of Dales shapes over the years. .

and laid up edges on the tail. when the board is finished can turn off the gas on the bbq and do some photos if your interested cheers

Thanks for the photo history some great sticks there true innovator some of those grips we're unreal . That DW looks great shame the GT stripes will get covered up that will stiffen her up a bit Lacey you see that photo of the red 8/8 did you cry a bit lucky your still round Thanks

I've only ever owned DC SUPs and am very happy to have supported Dale, as a local designer, over the years. It's amazing how Dales shapes have evolved over the years. Here are 2 pics of my 2008 and 2010 DW models that show a bit of that evolution. This new 2012 design looks a whole lot different to where we have come from. Its great to see evolution continue. Hopefully I will get a spin on this new one soon to see how it performs for myself.
