this a board i should have kept. had it for over a year
Looks similar to the one I saw on your car the other day
same lenght, thinner in the standing area plus channels, oh and a black pinline bit harder to stay on, but the ride is well- fully sic btw i managed not to say that word the tail looks more pulled in too
Come on Lacey when can I prone this beast
i don't know mac, you kinda make it sound dirty. i did have a go once on the old bluely at 13 ave palmy

Best SB I ever owned was a Surf More made in Tugun until it fell apart early 80's. Lacey and his wild bunch hooked me up with Nick from Mt Woodgee and up the hill we went in yellow kingswoods and dirt bike to order a custom.

I forgot I had this board had it given to me 20 years ago don't know when last rode it has 79 written on it 1979 . I think SunLine was made here in Gizzie . The art work is a sheep carrying a board under it's arm so guess it was done by an Aussie lol

i will post another closeup photo of the leash plug setup which is the breather hole its a great board dos what ever you want, down side is the sound of the board on waves takes a bit of getting use to as the board has no Blank.

Did you get this over in the States? Is it the Eliminator 6'8”? Nice looking board. http://www.bessellsurf.com/ The boards, made of carbon fiber, are completely hollow. The High Temp Fiber Placement Process allows them to be some of the lightest boards ever seen. There is nothing tying the top and bottom together except for the rails. This enables the deck and bottom to work and flex independently. This unique feature acts like suspension, launching you form one turn to the next. Since the deck is not directly connected to the bottom, the deck absorbs and stores the energy from the rider, then propels you forward, allowing the board to be in an almost constant state of acceleration. All this time the bottom of the board keeps the rocker intended. Everything from paddling to driving down the line will take on a whole new perspective.
