A friend bought a new Mana this week which was shipped from interstate to a dealer here.My question is is it the new model or old stock?.For some reason I thought that the new model had another colour (other than yellow and white on the deck or deckpad).I am no Naish expert,so over to those who are.It is 9'5" and the thing that did surprise me(I only have a couple of old boards)was the weight,so light.May have to upgrade.

Thanks that does help,and welcome to the forum,fantastic source of info ,and people with loads of experience.I think he paid too much for a non current model ,even if it isn't different dimensionally.I guess it makes little difference until you decide to sell or trade. Now the question is to tell him,or not.Such a high with new board would be a real dampener.Not that impressed with retailer after this I must say .The buyer is a complete novice who without checking with anyone got swept along,makes my opinion of the retailer even lower.I certainly won't buy there.
