Best SB I ever owned was a Surf More made in Tugun until it fell apart early 80's.
Lacey and his wild bunch hooked me up with Nick from Mt Woodgee and up the hill we went in yellow kingswoods and dirt bike to order a custom.
i had a blue longboard with pink rails with the name jay written on the nose 20 yrs ago...that was to be a keeper
it was in storage in melbourne...and was sold when my old man didnt pay his storage rent.
anyone in vic ever see this board? it is very distinctive with the blue and pink and name. could be in your shed :)

I forgot I had this board had it given to me 20 years ago don't know when last rode it has 79 written on it 1979 . I think SunLine was made here in Gizzie .
The art work is a sheep carrying a board under it's arm so guess it was done by an Aussie lol
Put the Red Line in the van this morning cause we have only small swell , well we have no swell never had a photo of it . It has wide Ceder stringers so it's a bit special to me any way . Best time I've had on it was one morning at the pass 3ft ,it was ladys day not to meany in the water magic
^^^^^nice board tb hey,i thought you guys had sheep in your backyards,like we have kangaroos and koalas in ours. or your very hungry or a sheep pimp thats why i cant see any
No mate no sheep , do have a cat floating round(million dollar cat for that $200 a time when he goes to the Vet)
i will post another closeup photo of the leash plug setup which is the breather hole its a great board dos what ever you want, down side is the sound of the board on waves takes a bit of getting use to as the board has no Blank.
Did you get this over in the States? Is it the Eliminator 6'8"? Nice looking board.

The boards, made of carbon fiber, are completely hollow. The High Temp Fiber Placement Process allows them to be some of the lightest boards ever seen. There is nothing tying the top and bottom together except for the rails. This enables the deck and bottom to work and flex independently. This unique feature acts like suspension, launching you form one turn to the next.
Since the deck is not directly connected to the bottom, the deck absorbs and stores the energy from the rider, then propels you forward, allowing the board to be in an almost constant state of acceleration. All this time the bottom of the board keeps the rocker intended. Everything from paddling to driving down the line will take on a whole new perspective.
yep boys its a 6'8" Aviso indo stick shape by Bessell USA. super fast, light and you don't really have to drive it into turns. it works for me, and its on the plane in august this year for Sumatra yeeeeeoooo.
