Picked up my new board yesterday. 
Munro 9'1 X 22 1/2 X 2 3/4
Concave to double V.
The board has some Carbon Fibre Rods which apparently doesn't add any real strength to the board but takes out some of the flex. You can see them being the black lines out near the rail on the bottom.
I am going to leave it for another week to cure before hitting the water. Can't wait . Here are some pics
Mate thats awesome. I was down talking to Brett a couple of weeks ago and he's just the most genuine guy and easy to talk boards with hey. In my opinion his boards are in the top 3 in this country and you will be stoked with yours if I'm sure.
Daneli,did you buy the board as an alrounder or performance board and if you dont mind me asking what's your weight
Nice board ,nice rocker and nice colour too. You'll stick out like dogs balls out there. I 've got those rail stringers in mine as well but they're timber. I was told a similar thing about flex and strength and it makes sense I guess.Too bad bad you gotta go and spoil it all by putting wax on it.
I had a similar fin set up on mine and put a shorter back fin in with bigger side biters and it really livened it up. Nothing like a new board.
Hi Mac, I'm about 85 -87 kgs depending on what I've had for lunch.
This is my only longboard and I guess I was after a board for better waves as when the surf is small or fluffy I will go out on an SUP. I won't take an SUP out where there is any crowd and that's usually when the surf is good and I felt like I was missing out on those days. I haven't surfed for a few years after some shoulder problems which I hope are fixed now.
I tried Brett Munro's board and was really happy with it in a 2-3 ft mellow beach break. My board is not really any different only I picked the colour. It even has a very similar cut away fin.
I tried a McT Original but it had alot of rocker. I can see why it's rated a very good beach break board but I think this would be a board to add to a quiver. I looked at the Fireball which I know everybody rates but it just seemed alot of nose and alot of board for what I was looking for. This one seems to be in between so maybe mine is an all-rounder. Maybe if my shoulders are OK I might get a Fireball as well for those days instead of the SUP but to be honest I like the all over workout I get on an SUP and it gives me more water time.
I have in the past had alot of boards at one time but usually I end up with a favourite that I use all the time regardless of conditions. I'll see how the shoulders hold up over the next few months to determine if I add to it.
Cheers
Sounds like a great board for you Daneli
I've always had a liking for Munro boards as
billboard said right up there in the quality
department.
Hope your shoulders hold up and you get much
enjoyment for many years to come.Now you got
me thinking
. I have been busy at work and missed a couple of swells at the points. Now it looks like northerlies for the next week
Very similar to the UFO landing,between lack of quality waves and a couple of pressing issues of late,I have not truly tested it but do like want I feel and cant wait for a nice swell to hit,nothing epic just some fast down the line @ LM and not the fat rubbish being dished out of late and this weekends looking sad as well.
You'll both have the chance in round 2 to try out the new boards as BB and myself might have one to test as well.
MACCA DACCA you ain't seen any snaking as yet,watch out in round 2 Take No Prisoners.
daneli you're welcome any time to our rounds more the merrier,don't take too much notice of mac because the first chance he gets to get the bombs he'll do anything illegal,nice bloke on the forums opposite in the water,just watch him.
