Hot topic when the board came out, but havn't heard anything about them since. Is anyone still surfing one of these and are you still enjoying it. If not what didn't you like about it.
Be good to hear from the owners.Cheers

Seeing as no one else has answered your query mate , I had the 12,6 and Beersup is now the proud ownerGreat board , for its size it surfed unreal the bigger the better it went. I hit Mac speed on that thing a few times. No good for racing but touring , fishing off it and surfing it putting the dog and kids on it all good. Here is a vid surfing Iluka beach break on it , you will have to look closely LOL

Most 12'6" boards are BOP boards or race boards.. This is more of a big fun surfing board that is also at home cruising around on flat water... Imo

Only 22 boards came into the country. Special board!
Those that have them and surf them, love them.
If flat water and racing are not you thing, it would be hard to find a more playful 12'6.
I still have mine



This is SteveP throwing his around on the Northern beaches - just skip to the last minute where is really moving the board around.

Thanks for your replies. When the surfs good, so are the crowds. Sounds like the perfect board to head down the coast a bit and explore a few breaks.
Have been doing on the M14. Surfs great, but this looks better. cheers

I had one as a allrounder. Great fun board & user friendly. Participated in club events ( surf & races & light downwind) as a newbie. Eventually selling for something specific in both categories. It sold in 4 days to someone in Victoria via Seabreeze.
Pros: conversation starter, everyone wanted to paddle it, good looking, great construction, 5 fins, surfed great- chined rails.
Cons:Within a quiver of boards- a great addition. As a single quiver board yes but with limitations. Its not carbon so surf of head high + can drag you that little bit further than normal.

The old 12'6 glide & F-one 12'6 paddle efficiently however are half as capable on the wave & as much fun as the psh is.

Hopefully something like it comes back into my quiver one day.

What fin configurations is everyone using with this board. Any fin pics would be great!

Ok the PSH is a fun surf board for days when you cannot surf the custom wave board. It paddles flatwater too. This typ of board is exactly what I need as a second board - surfing touring/cruising and a great board for the grandkids to have fun on ( love to catch a wave with the kids on the front.)
Also am a carer for two autistic boys and they would love a bigger board - keep falling off the 9'1" but still heaps of laughs (in the lake)

SO is there any boards currently on the market that fill the criteria surf 1 foot waves-- paddle brunswick river ---kid friendly

OR who is going to sell me theirs, because you don't need it anymore -- and I REALLY NEED IT!

What about the Surftech Mickey Munoz 12'6"? That could be a great alternative.

Starby big easy or atlas
One of the bigger surftech Laird/Pearsons if you can find a good one
11'0 or 11'6 Fanatic Allround

Just to name a few, good cruisers that'll carry a couple of kids and be fun in smalll-medium waves.

Yeah, the SIC Bullet 12'6 also has a great reputation for a fun, all round paddling/ocean/surfing board. Solid pedigree too!

Simon Anderson Nimitz 12'x 30", can be setup as a single fin or 3 fin .Unsure if they are still produced,fun for the those tiny days,when no one else can be bothered.

The one your having the most fun onThe PSH surfs unreal for its size , feels like a much shorter board.
