Thankyou Bert,I have a couple of firewires and am very happy with the way they perform.I know it's a pitty about the partnership collapse but look forward to Sunova making a go of it.Go BERT!!!!
I have an 8 6 made by burt that is about 15 years old and is light as and as strong as an ox. Burts been making good quality boards for a long time and is a gentleman to boot. Nice vid.
5 years ago Bert announced on the Swaylocks forum that he was moving to the Gold Coast.
I said to him on the forum 'Bert, good luck with the move. You will learn a lot over here'.
I got roasted so hard by everyone like how dare you say the king of epoxy can learn from a place like the Gold Coast (he done amazing things for the world of smaller epoxy construction via this site. This thread http://www2.swaylocks.com/node/1012644 changed everything for so many people.)
What I meant with 'you will learn a lot' is summarised at the start of this movie. Bert became a friend of mine while he was here and we surfed together. Yes, he is a gentleman and a mad scientist. I wish him all the luck in the world, he has sacrificed a lot to follow his dreams of making better surfboards.......
