Its not too often people in this world do what they say they will.

I can tell you Blane believes in his boards and backs then 100%, he is a man of his word.

When I had an issue with my 10'6 Wide AA Blane was onto it in hours even though he was 1/2 world away it appear he was just down the street.

He took personal control of sourcing the replacement and keep me up to date with courier schedules etc until it got here.

He had my existing board expertly repaired and then gave it back to me.

My bright shiny new 10'6WAA arrived today complete with handle and I am totaly stoked and then some.

I believe the bar is now at a totally different level.

Thank you again to Rich at Strapper and Andrew Allen Balmoral Boards for your continued local support.

Phill

Bit confused Phill, you ended up with 2 boards or one goes back???

Just a few notes on this thread:

"And before anyone jumps up and down this is not a dig at psh but at ANY brand that thinks they are so elite as to be able to charge whatever the hell they like above the "going prices for premium brand boards". - I bought three (3) boards from companies who come from windsurfing backgrounds last year. The prices on these boards (albeit one was used) were in line with the PSH pricing. MYTHBUSTED!

"I know that Starboard/Laguna Bay/DC/GSI and I am sure others all would do exactly the same thing if it was one of their own boards/customers with problems" - I am now on my fourth (4th) deck pad from one of the major manufacturers. I have replaced the pads on my own time (except for one), although I was provided replacement pads. I would have thought that the company in question would have simply sent me a deck pad from another manufacturer if they really wanted to resolve this problem. This same company however, did sort out an issue I had with one of the boards. MYTH1/2BUSTED!

"they should call this forum the "PSH FORUM"" - Phil made a very heartfelt thank you to DC and Lacey for the help, patience and understanding they offered with his daughters' new board. Not one person commented (RIGHTLY SO!) on the fact Phil was supporting someone who had given him ("He really understood how important it was for her to be part of what was going on and for this I am very greatfull") great support and service. This thread then resulted in a discussion about the board which was a good read. There are heaps of threads discussing how good various boards are etc. So, other brands do get some coverage, albeit possibly less than PSH. MYTHBUSTED

-NO, I do not own a PSH but have recently used one for a few hours.

Lighten up guys and leave some stoke in the sport. All this bickering makes this forum divisive at times. It would be great if everyone could just enjoy this phase of the sport, engage in challenging conversations about where the sport is/is going, and most of all STAY STOKED AND HAVE FUN.

Do not see any probs with what Phil has done and don't know why the red thumbs he is not a spono'ed rider just some one liking good service. Maybe hes just not saying good things about the brand you push??? maybe the reason why PSH get so much forum time is they are doing a good job and people are stoked with them!!!

If he was plugging C4 would you call this a C4 forum?? I like hearing about peoples stoke weather PSH,DC or what ever its why we do it, its all about the stoke lets hope we don't lose it!!!!!

totally with you on that one. I applaud what Blane has done fixing up a host of recent psh concerns BUT I know that Starboard/Laguna Bay/DC/GSI and I am sure others all would do exactly the same thing if it was one of their own boards/customers with problems. Great manafacturers and shapers look after their customers and at times go above and beyond but no brand is so supreme in any facet that they can justify being noticably more expensive. And before anyone jumps up and down this is not a dig at psh but at ANY brand that thinks they are so elite as to be able to charge whatever the hell they like above the "going prices for premium brand boards".

Not sure they are more expensive that any thing else and the new pricing i have seen is very good (hope i can say that) better than most brands out there. even when they were $2000 a board it was pretty much in line with every thing else.

Maybe all these other companies would do the same ,maybe not!! if they do then hopefully the person who gets the good deal tells the world of there good service.

Did not think you would see a problem with it, as you sell PSH. It is an open forum, with open opinions. The reason I called it a PSH forum is because every day there is some "favourable" topic about these boards, and they are always backed up by the retailer/sponsored riders.
There are certain people on this forum that comment on the brands they sell or push. Why don't we leave the selling to shop retailers, company reps and website managers. I thought pimping was outlawed on this forum.
Good service is everything I agree but that was not my point.

cheers

Yes i do sell them, no secret there which probably puts me in a good spot to to understand why people are so happy with them. I have never heard a bad thing about the brand ever!!! now that's pretty good with all the boards they have sold.

The reason there are new topics every day about them is people are stoked about what they ride. What about all the surf shape topics, there's one of them every second day!!! this month it'll be PSH next month it'll be some one else part of the forum routine.

There's no selling going on here not sure what you mean? all i see is some one is happy with there service.

Please remember if the pimps/retailers stop using this forum it will most likely die as most of these people were here right at the start and were the ones to push for this stand up forum.

Oh well off to work!!!!!

On ya Phil, I too, am sick of negative whingers. Give credit where it's due.

If your happy with excellent service or perfromance of a board , tell as many people as you can , nothing sinister about that.If it guides a person to one particular brand or custom then you have helped that person make an informed choice.

Naish did NOTHING of the sort when I had an issue with a board-they came at the whole issue as though I was to blame-when I absolutely was not. Reason I won't use or recommend their product.

PSH on the other hand-in every way my dealings (and those of the 4 friends who I recommended to their boards and have all bought boards) have been nothing but outstanding. Those on here giving credit are doing so because we've been blown away with how they deal with their customers-it's been that good.

Credit where it's due.

Criticism where it's due too.

Perhaps companies/individuals should put their energies into getting the product right to start with and then they wouldn't have to spend every waking hour fixing up their ####ups ! Perhaps the reason we don't hear a lot about other brands is because they get it right - customers are happy and life goes on without the need for any hoopla.

Fark the bickering about who does what....surfs off it's nuts!!! Just had cooking 6 footers!! Get out there!!!

You can't blame these guys for using sites like Seabreeze to market their products and whip the crowd into a frenzy... (just before a new container arrives..)
I certainly wouldn't envy his inventory management at 1000 pieces a month!

If every retailer thought the same way then Seabreeze would cease to exist.

This is the biggest difference between PSH and everyone else.

The pimping becomes a bit more palatable if PSH were to contribute like Starboard say.
At 1000 pieces a month they can clearly afford it.

Umm not sure what you're saying-but PSH via AA sure does contribute to Seabreeze-check the banner ads that regularly come up.
