What do you think about these boards that Surftech are making?

The Gerry 9'6" looks good...so does the 8'11" for smaller guys though and now Surftech are popping them out they could be in a store near you! lol (I know Gerry was already making sups)

Also what do you make of the Pearson Arrow Laird boards? the smaller of the two looks like a huge noserider and the other GIANT...I don't know what to make of that??

haven't looked at link, but i had the first 8 10 gerry , only 2 of them in oz, 1 went down to nsw. they weren't surftech. 8 10 x 281/2x 4 1/4 from memory. they came from the same place as the ron house boards.super fast and drivey(i changed mine from a quad to 2/1. i'll never forget some for the waves i had early this year.rides from centre alley all the way down to in front of the twin towers beach. those were the days(feb/march this year)
cheers

That Lopez board would be a beauty if your a light person.

And if I was a sumo wrestler I'd love that new 14' Laird..

Interesting specs for the boards. Why don't they have their weight?

It's odd that they have all the plan shape dimensions you could want but nothing about the rocker, weight or general bottom shape.

"don’t be sur­prised if after stroking into your first wave on a Lopez Tuflite board, you find your­self soul arch­ing off the bot­tom into a per­fect crys­tal cav­ern and glid­ing effort­lessly across the wave’s face and feel a lit­tle bit of Gerry with you as you glide over the shoul­der and pad­dle back out for another one…"

Gotta love the advertising guys!
