Author	What new GPS board did Russ get?	Page: of 1
TASSIEROCKS TAS 1044 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011, 1:40 pm After killing the Fanatic 79 I needed a new board. My mate Sam Parker came good for me with his GPS board that he has taken over 40knots. I will try not to jump this one 2010 JP 56 Looks the Business

izaak TAS 1586 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011, 3:52 pm Good choice russ, my JP Slalom 56cm 81L arrives this week
houston TAS 1600 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011, 5:19 pm Nice one Russ, no excuses now, you have to hit 40 knots, can't blame the old board
TASSIEROCKS TAS 1044 Posts	Posted 06/04/2011, 6:02 pm Ant thats right, Its just the old man driving it now.

AUS02 TAS 1243 Posts	Posted 07/04/2011, 5:27 pm Nice one Russ, be good to hear how it compares to the old Fanatic 79!
TASSIEROCKS TAS 1044 Posts	Posted 07/04/2011, 6:05 pm Hi Damo no oath I just hope it's as good as the Fanatic 79. Sam said it is a wood construction so should be a bit softer at peak speed and allow me to stay in control deep off the wind like a starboard. He also said it glides through the lulls like the Fanatic 79 as well. Lets hope so, the fanatic 79 showed me what a good board should feel like an old slipper. I could sail that board all day and the sails energy went to the fin and the board just stayed in control. So to be honest if it is not as good as the old board I will be honest about it. If it is as good I will be so happy Russ
Steve Charles TAS 472 Posts	Posted 07/04/2011, 6:34 pm Well done Russ, looks very nice. I know the fanatic 79 was really good but I am sure this will be heaps better. Izaak bet you cannot wait to get your new one either.
buzzy TAS 1330 Posts	Posted 08/04/2011, 5:51 am Excellent choice Russ. Should be a good battle next season when we both have the exact same board. I cant wait to get Damien to order mine in, but alas I have to.
geared4knots TAS 787 Posts	Posted 08/04/2011, 7:23 am Hopefully you get to give it a blast on the w/end. A bit of wind around Sumday ( (or was that Sunday!)maybe.
buzzy TAS 1330 Posts	Posted 08/04/2011, 7:26 am Like the look of these too. http://www.robertoriccidesigns.com/equipment/index.php/windsurfing/x-fire-v3/x-fire-80-ltd-v3.html
Kazza TAS 935 Posts	Posted 08/04/2011, 7:54 am Help me!!!! I was so close to buying a F1 Bandit 3 last year but brand new kite for $999, but now looking at all these slalom boards I controlled myself, better to spend my money on them.

Kazza TAS 935 Posts	Posted 08/04/2011, 10:48 am You mean I need new everything!!! If my work keeps up the way it is I'll be able to get new everything for next season, except I'll be so busy working I won't have time to use it.
TASSIEROCKS TAS 1044 Posts	Posted 09/04/2011, 7:03 am Kazza If you buy new board and sails somthing tells me you might make the time to use them. Go for it! Russ
