Has anybody come across or know anybody who's owned a Firewire in the RapiFire construction where the deck has become discoloured ie. getting lighter in some areas and dark in others? Is this normal? If its not normal any idea what could be causing it. There are no cracks or dings in the deck so I'm ruling out water damage.
Thanks in advance.
Dan the wood effect has gone dark through the middle of the board and then light towards the last 3rd at the nose.
Thanks for the advice Ted. Firewire confirmed that it sounds/looks like there been some water damage and told me to steer clear of buying it unless the price they were offering was unreal.
I'd also agree that the guys I spoke to at Firewire were really helpful and a pleasure to deal with.
Its a Spitfire JB. I was considering wither this or a 6'6 Hellfire. Let me know how you go, the tip you gave me on the Fat Bullet was great so trust your judgement
If you are considering owning it I would steer clear. Sure it might be ok but I would not take the risk. Glad to hear that you also had a pleasant experience with FW.
Not going anywhere near it Ted. The lad selling it bought it in that condition not knowing any diffent. Totally stooged
