Board number 2 that is on order will actually be made first. Just because I need it to fill a gap in my quiver.
7 ft 21'5 2/34 don't know much else because it has all been left to SDR to decide.
my ask was a board that had more performance than just a big volume fish. A board that likes steep beachie drops and will.hold on for nice tubes when needed,lots I hope.
Another and big point of getting such a big board was to beat the points on larger days and big beachie days when alot of water is moving around. So we will.see.what Steve does. I am now a big lover of.riding a quad,yet I'm not sure even what the fin.set up.will be. To make it easy it will be a board that will love big Burleigh type days.
The. Artwork was going to be another chrispy special,but the Girl has made me get it done properly(she does not appreciate good art) so I will talk to the LADY OF MANY COLOURS to get it done right.
Will.be doing a mini.picture blog of the making off this for some fun. So board gets started next Friday.
any idea.on art fellas, Mac give a mate a hand.
Green , Gold and a dash of something different .... grey maybe .... or a lightning bolt just forward of dead centre on deck
Well I've already given it a name,beast was the first thing that came to me
On the art pending the outline shape,first up select your colours you like that's
look for a design that will match the plain shape,if its old school go for something
retro old school around the 80's era or if its a mod shape find something else.
So what's the longboard your having made dims and plain shape please,fin set up.
Have you tried the 1 plus 2 set up in your current CW longboard,6 1/2 7 inch centre
with 2 small side bites?I think you should give this ago as well.
Something the get you started

Above a more modern look I like the grey and green combo on this.
Chrispy you were a punk and the echo beach 80's art would be a great
fit for you,have a look at some of this classic art from the time.

7 ft 21'5 2/34 !!! Jeepers that will paddle like a longboard - looking forward to seeing this one develop
Here is the great man in action doing a promo for Shapers
Mchenry and pup,I will not respond. Mac that was funny going through some of those pics. Ted yep it will be a killer paddler mate. My shorty has heaps.of volume and I am very happy with it. Yet on the nice big lm days and on my beaches,well I don't want the longboard but want the paddle. Oh Mac it will be a more hp.shorty shape just wit heaps.of volume,and a quad,I'm seriously in love with the quad setups now. I did think.2+1 for a small while. And no way would I change my fin setup on the smile board,it is magic the way it is.
Fark the girl,chrispy will teach the lady of many colours some killer art yeeeeeeew
I noticedd that the other day. Mine will just be more hp and not so egg shaped. My other one is a smaller version of that and I am having a ball on it.
Is your mate enjoying it tb? Would be fun on the points up here that's for sure
Chrispy, you need stripes on the bottom of your new board to deter sharks.
Refer to thread in another room.
No way Scotty,I'm getting this board so I am the shark. Fark Asea Mac Vanders and all their 10ft board stories of I can turn it. I will show em how to turn......or keep being the delusional fool I am yeeew
Go with yer heart chrispy champion - everything is an idea but only you will know what is the shizz or simply leave it to teena (good god I hope I remembered her name proper hahaha)
what ever happen to the good old fashioned white board with some nicely placed logos and let the surfing and beaver tailed wetsuit do the talking
Ok.early surf in the morning then. Down to see SDR
To get this beast shaped. Will take some pics,
Getting pretty excited now yeeew
