Well we have been pushing the DC 9'4 to its limits to see what it will and will not do. We wanted to see if it would perform for a lightweight so I asked my daughter to take it for a spin. Keep in mind this board was made for someone my size 105 - 107kgs.

The following pics show Kristi my 13yr old (about 45kg) daughter riding the DC 9'4 with no issues at all.









So far we have had sufers from 45 - 105kgs on the same board and all have been super impressed.

You would have to say this is a very versatile board to say the least!

Hey Kitesurfer,

No I havent tried the circular polarizer at this point, but thank you for the tip

The major issue I have is the compression program on the sea breaze site.

It turns tack sharp into something that looks like it was shot at 3200 ISO lol?

I think Kristi is most at ease on her imperial, but I agree she loves the DC as well.

I may not get it back when I am well and able to surf it again.

I have been told that she would rip on a DC 8'8 so we may invest in one in the future.

I have recently purchased a new telephoto and it is taking a while to get it dialed.

The extra focal length really requires a gimbal mount. I have one ordered but its still a few days away at this stage.

Hey Doggy,

My gear is kinda old school but gets the job done.

I seriously dont need to break anything else at this point, I promise to stay behind the lens

I will have a HD update for your vid software so bring your lappy to Mambo

Man oh man we are gonna have our own Dale Chapman Convetion on Saturday.

3 x DC 9'4, 1 x DC 8'10 and 1 x DC 8'0.

I'm thinking Quiver Shot with the bluff in background for sure

sheeeeesh longboarders eh

Hey Lacey,

When you surf main beach you expect to do slalom its all part of the fun.

I think people need to remember when you surf these types of places that patience and even more skill are required on all types of craft.

You cant expect to get a beach that caters to 3 - 5000 people to yourself on a summers day.

He is pushing down a perfect section for Kristi to do a reentry off his melon

Hey Mr Dogman,

We have been feeding a certain DC owner snakes and sherbies and jolt extra today so I may have some interesting images later.

Your going to be stoked with the new board Ross,
had my DC for a couple of weeks now and real happy with it,
amazed how Dale made the board to exactly what I was after,
enjoy,
Camo.

hey camo, just about to grip up my 8'8". i'm itching to get on this. i thought it might be the 8 10 with a couple of inches knocked, but it's not the same board, more nose rocker for starters. if it goes 3/4's as good as that famed 8' 8", it will be my dream board
cheers
