Love the tail shape.. High volume without being too boxy.

I work in the sup game and from all reports these boards are all sold out already in the 14ft mark and as for the 12'6's i think gone as well. I couldn't even get my hands on one for myself.
Looks like i will be waiting until the new year to get one in my hands.
Only once ever in my life have i ever seen something and said i want it no matter the costs and that was the iphone when first out and this would of been the other. Oh well it looks like i am going to have to wait.......

Does anyone know the weight of 14'?

JM, Travis Grant and Danny Ching will be there apparently. Bummer I have to work in Brisvegas today aargh!

Can anyone explain the advantage of having the soft handles near the handle hole?

They're for racing. Heaps easier when running through the break and something to grab onto when you get caught inside by a set.

Finally picked up my new 14" JM going to give it a wetting around wave break tomorrow afternoon I'm thinking.
