You guys told me you trashed the board before it was sent and you weren't joking

Tea tree was this your rail smash

Who did the snap tail turn

Who ran over it

Can I glue it back to getter


Looks like I will not be racing the new 14 in the marathon this weekend O well it might have to be this

Hope you don't mind Trav

Looks like the same baggage handlers that looked after handled my board on the way to Bali handled yours as well, at least mine is still in one piece.

That's devastating. We need zero tolerance criminal laws against ****ful baggage handlers.

Cams just taking the piss don't red flag him its all cool
But there was a sighting of Svein Ramussen at the luggage rack at the Goldie
As they say what trumps the Ace card The Joker but not in this case
I have starboard product and love it
At the moment there is no one more devo than DC him self lot of work went into that board
But at the end of the day I can get him to make me another its all cool
We have had lots of boards air freighted this way by these guys and this is the first fully totalled board the odd ding which happens
Still racing on weekend that 7/4 carbon rush is going to be a bitch for 20 ks

that's unbelievable, feel sorry for you mate. I'd be spewing, but you certainly created a lighter side to it with the photos....the "who ran over it" comment was priceless!

That's so sad Stimo... I wondered where you were this morning, fully expecting to see you on "YA NEW RIG"... God Damn baggage handler that did it should be flogged in public!

Stimo knows I am just joking, but seriously there might still be time for you to rally an unlimited class so you can bring out the 16 gun.

We think it has being run over from the trolley tractor trailer you could not do this damage even if you threw it of the roof of your car

DC is a true legend


This already under way new board on her way
Nice clean glassing bay too

Now that's real carbon shame to have to spray it
Check out the drain venturies in the bottom if you look about half way up
The waters going to suck out ( if I can get her up to speed )

To put you at ease Lacey, I know how good Dales boards are and have had a few chances to ride his boards and chat to him when he comes over. It's just an ongoing joke we have over here between the Starboard and DC camps.
