100% of the boards I have lined up for test rides have been damaged or destroyed.

Apparently the damaged one the rider managed to purl (nose dive) the board and pile drive it into the reef.

On the destroyed one the leash broke and the board got beaten to death on the reef.

Hopefully this is a coincidence and not a sign of under engineered products. I was all set to have my final test ride then start haggling.

on a drive around maui we came to a sign which said, "rental cars go no further, lava field ahead."

a beat up kombi with a bearded fellow came from that direction and we hailed him down and asked "is the road really bad ahead?"

he asked "is that a rental car?"...........................reply "yes"

go for it dudes, it aint yours!!!!!
