Sorta Kinda like a 60's board in the 3 R's dept...rocker/rolled bottom/rails.

Very stable but I would have loved to ride it at a decent point break, that's where it would shine like a Mac Star.

It was number 3 and I sow an ad in a mag when they came out, he did 5 all similar but different colours.

The Noosa mate


Yer i rode one a while back now, they are the invovlement model on steroids, better for us bigger or older blokes that want that piggy type template.

i found it quite smooth and trimmed like no other, held well in the pocket when going forward. The turning style required is quiet different, more of a pivot type board rather than a turner.

i really wanted one but in 11ft but bob refused to shape it because even at 10ft apparently its hard to maintain that nice piggy type template and he even dislikes doing them at 10ft.

one day i might get one
