Quinny and I had a fun little session at Palm Beach today. Was pretty much a closeout, but we managed to get some hits every now and then. Thanks to Katie for shooting today.

I was riding the Fanatic Fly 9'0", and Quinny was on the FLY 9'6".

Hey Lozza, check out my paddle

Just corrected the sequence a bit, makes more sense now.

Hey JB we could have had some entertaining pics of a nosedive and you decide to go and save it
somehow,
looks like you found some workable waves though to try the new boards on,

cheers.

Yer, it was a pretty hollow closeout, kept me on my toes!

Very happy with the Fanatic Fly 9'0". I believe Quinny is bringing the whole range to the beach tomorrow at Longy SPSC event.

Wes - Never seen a balder man more happy! Boyz got some awesome toys and an attitude to match. I heard through the grade vine you were possibly coming on board. Welcome! It's gonna be such a good season. I had nothing but great reviews on the 9'0" Fly, your gonna love it! You coming to mambo?

Lacey - Yes I would have to agree, Apart from my surfing being a little rusty at the mo, I am loving the speed and sweet tail shape on the 9'0". I still have some more dikking with fins to be done, but because the board has Futures, I have no quiver. That's the next few pay cheques. But thanks for the props.

Anyone - I am only new to Futures. My previous favourite fin set up was the MR-TX Glass Flex. I am looking for a similar thruster. Large, Wide but flexable. Any suggetsions to narrow my search down?

Great Pics! the Fanatic 9 looks sweet.

JB Do you feel that you can throw this board around the same way you did the 8 4"?

Nice cutty dude! looks like your having no probs whipping it around there.

Hey JB just read your reveiw in the reveiw sec on the Fanatic Fly 9 (so no need to answer above)
Sounds like it surfs well. With the full forwad rails it should be user friendy enough for those wishing to step down to a smaller short board.

My shop and Demo Fly's will be arriving soon. (but not soon enough!)

But for now Im glad you put up those great pics as they are satisifing my curiosity!

Luke
