Come and meet Bob McTavish, Steve Walden and Greg Webber at RPS 87 Ormond road Elwood on Tuesday the 10th at 2pm.
This is a good oppurtunity to learn more about SUP and surfboard design.
To tell you the truth i personally can`t wait to have a chat.

NOTE designers, NOT shapers-anyone with a PC and AKUShaper programme can be a 'designer'.......

Well I dont care whether Steve Walden made my board with his bare hands or told some lacky on the other side of the world what to punch into his computer, I love my Walden 9'11" and wouldn't swap it for quids!

Hope this GSI tour visits NSW as well?

No they can't. Anyone with piece of software can draw pictures of a surfboard. You have to understand the design parameters and the effects of changes to actually design something.

And you have to surf one in a wide range of conditions to then make those changes.
