I only ever see one of these in WA....and it is loved.

The skim board looks cool, but pricey.

Kitepower stocks Nobile boards.
We are not keen to hold any of the Shinns though, because the price is a little on the high side at around $1450
The rest are very reasonable though, check them out.

I saw the 07 range at the boardsports flop in Sydney yesterday, the Shinn has the thinnest rail/edge of any board I have seen. They are amazing well finished and presented.

We have demo's of a couple of the boards.

Has any1 tried the 666?

I ride the 666 ptex "06" 132x40 and love it, the ptex edition came out with a ptex bottom for kickers and sliders and extra inserts for bindings, I have been using foot straps with it.

It gets going in the light winds but has heaps of control when its cranking. I ride in chop and the board feels real smooth to ride. The foot pads get heaps of comments on there feel. I mainly do unhooked tricks and the pop is excellant, even in light winds.

The price maybe up there but, but the technolgy gone into the boards is awsome.

Test ride one, and you prob wont give it back

I had a look on the web sight and they didn't mention anything about ptex?
is that an " extra" for 06 or was it marketed up front as a variation of the 666 model? thanks

Hey Guy's,

I demo'd the 666 132x40 when I was up in Cairns and totally loved it! both in crap wind and when it was ripping, felt ace with the foot straps and real easy to cruise over the chop...
All good! would love to get my hands on one, just need to save some cash first!

Hi all,
Glad to hear some of you have had a chance to try the boards and like them.
The PTEX edition was a special for 2006 and at the moment it is not in the range for 2007.
Should there be demand for it it is quite possible to produce the 2007 666 in a PTEX version.
We don't make Mutants. In the past I enjoyed to ride Mutants as they were a great compromise for waves, freestyle etc but in the recent years I have found that I prefer to ride a Twin tip for freestyle and a surfboard for waves...... judging by what I see on the water I am not the only one to reach this point!
Regards
Shinn
