How long will this one last Lacey?

4321 next

I have a plan for this board.

But im keeping it to my self
Im a slow learner but it's not worth posting anything on the breeze these day

Cool
i was wanting to know if it was a keeper.
its just that little comment you made about the wind and my left eyebrow raised

Hmm wide nose more catch of the wind ???

Cheers I know about that Mac, it was the comment ..Lacey sounded disappointed.
and I caught chrispy comment of what did he expect.
im not poking anyone It just sounds like it won't last long and that's ok.

From my knowledge nothing under 9 foot stays long term, the boy loves to try and seek other boards and thats a good thing he is able to do so.My call on that boards it will go.

Stunning

Yep that's what I thought.

I would love a surf on it. I surfed a similar dvs and really liked it,was a very fun mini mal

It should almost be a mal with tgat volume, shape and construction for you anyway lacey, which I imagine is sorta what you were looking for?


You could still out paddle half of the Muppets clogging up the points on their warships and still be able to turn it and have fun,unlike those Muppets clogging up the points

An impulse buy


Dvs 66x21x 23/4 eps 43 lts linear carbon technology

Nice looking stick..

Is it similar to the wombat?

No

Thanks for the reply

Rude at times that Lacey

Actually he is usually the opposite. Remember the fin posts his board posts are usually good. it was just my cheeky way of provoking a better response. Which we got

Sounds like a fun board in the right waves LL. How did you find the edge all the way to the nose?

Yeah I agree those muppets on over 10 foot boards give me the sh-ts
Lacey I have to hit the breaks when you drop in on me when I'm riding my 10 footer, please don't drop in on me on this egg thing, my breaking system is not that good.

Mac. You should investigate the option for doing a few turns instead of straight lining it .

Im sorry about the dropping in occasionally but you let so many go and well .......

Turn wtf why have I not been informed about this before

laceys lane said..
Question. Board has a full nose and a rounded pin tail which you can't see very well because its black carbon.

Is that what is known as a egg shape.

I thought it was more of a small m as l shape

Lacey that board looks like a fun board, an everyday fun board, have fun on it,dont worry about us, you just go have fun.

However its not what I'd call an egg because its not wide enough, thats just MO,I'm probably wrong Its shaped like one of
those beginner boards, please don't walk down the beach with me while your earring it,anyother boards fine but not that one

Update. I was getting some old style fcs fins for this board from cable for cooly surf.
Explained to him what happens on lefts and what i was thinking of doing.
He said

A epoxy boards are harder to surf backhand .
B the getting stuck up the top is common complaint backhand and in wind


C remedy. Play around with taping small weights on the nose. Get it dailed in and use the weight when and if needed.

D lots of surfers in epoxy are doing this for certain conditions.

E dont put anything on permanent. You want to be able to have the board as original thoae small clean days.

Cheers and peace to all

Can I have his number he sounds like a sales guru

Taping weight on the nose what a load of BS sorry I just got to say it as it is.The guy is stitching you up.

Ffs mac. Know what your talking about. Dc also suggested weights too. Its what he has done in the past. It was done fire wire boards for taj too.

DC weights really WHY? sounds like the issue is in the design,I mean lets buy a new car and ask why the front drivers side wheel is taller?and the super salesman replies, it helps turn the car around left had corners, come on mate ffs.

But hey I'm not a surfboard designer so I'm wrong

its what they are trying. epoxy shortboards are still a bit of the unknown. in the right conditions they are amazing. in lesser condition maybe not. ill have a go at it

I would rather have a crack and fail then get a mind numbing twenty five 9.6 boards all the same

Yeah..its like buying brand new wheels and tyres, then putting weights on them . And the bloke told me it helps to balance the wheels.

Could it also be a design thing in wide nose pulled in tail boards aswell. No idea why but I find mine don't like backhand as much.. They seem get stuck at the top as you described above.

Could be boards with wide nosed under 8 foot?

I'd say 7ft.. Forehand they are fine. Just when it gets a bit sucky they seem to stick at the top on the backhand.

epoxy shortboards are still the unknown, laughable mate they've been around for a while, if thats the case let them experiment on somebody else unless your sponsored now on the 906 front I love art just ask the mighty fine people at CLEARWATER SURFBOARDS

i m afraid your laughable because you haven't been on a shortboard for decades. quite clearly your a keyboard warrior

stick to what you know- 25 mct evo 2s.

why are you even in this thread


sp. good to hear your feed back.

cheers

nasty bitch Lacey

The only time I've had problems with epoxys in offshore winds is with a mal although I wouldn't be putting weights on the nose I just grabbed a different board that suited the conditions.have a cple of epoxy short boards and unless it's howling offshore they seem to go fine forehand and backhand, I'd be dubious about the weights idea but if you put enough on it might make a good tow board.
