Hey Guys
I'm looking at getting a McT 8Ball or UF8 for much the same reasons as unclethirsty (usually surf shorties and mostly beachies etc.) up on the Sunny Coast. I contacted the McT factory and they informed me that neither model comes in Tufflite, but comes in something called "Impact Epoxy" (?). Im curious if this is the same stuff they make their SUPs out of and/or if it gets as bad a wrap as SLX. Does anyone know?

i've always found the 'impact epoxy' a good all rounder, but can get caught up in the pocket a bit
