Anyone ridden a mctavish UFO and if so any comments?
looking at this on gumtree , thinking's it's prob around 2010 to 2013 vintage but not sure
www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/wembley-downs/surfing/mctavish-longboard/1249386580
they no longer make this model
so couldn't find the usual blurb from mctavish in it

I owned one or two ok make that 3 good performance board,at the time they had team riders who spent a lot of time surfing indo,they released a movie which the UFO featured,I've got it somewhere,I think it was titled MOVING ON.It was dropped from the range and replaced with the EVO.
I personally think 900 is too much,,700 maybe for a board of its age. You can still order a custom UFO from the factory.

The UFO was the replacement for the F4 which was had a quad set up I think.

Cheers guys, I was actually thinking 700 max would be value too, considering it's around 10 years old and could see few big pressures on bottom
pretty sure mctavish was charging way less for a longboard about a decade ago compared to current as well

it was , got it off SB as well ...

sea breeze buy n sell...

I spent $600 on a 9'1 fireball in about 2004 ofF EBAY.

Its smashed to pieces now and o need to replace it but I don't have the domiros. The dims are very similar and I agree that Macs boards do just keep giving. Surfed solid 8ft and can cheat 5 with spead on a thin pin . I'd plead to buy at $800 max that I would ride it but I'm not in WA.
