YEEEEWWWWWWWWW!
I picked up my new Deep 10ft mal version 2.0 today .
Version 1.0 can be seen here:
www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Stand-Up-Paddle/Review/DEEP-OceanBoards-10ft-Log/
Version 1.0 was 10kg dry (no wax no fins) I had it made that heavy for a reason, and it does exactly what I wanted it to. Time to try something with a little change.
I wanted:
A little thinner through out, especially nose and tail sections. (note V1.0 is already thin and I often get asked if its a mal or a SUP)
A little more rocker
lighter
Simon worked his magic and hit it spot on! The pics really do not show how fine the nose and tail sections are. Cant wait to get this sled in the water
Version 2.0 is bang on 8kg dry.
Nose section:
Mid section (thickest point):
Tail section:

Hi Husq,
Are the conditions you surf in real calm, or are you well north?
Dose the board paddle into small waves with such low volume?
Interested because I am the same stats as you and want a performance longboard for East coast NZ
Cheers
only 2 surfs so far and super stoked.
AT first I thought it was more "twicthy" but soon fingured out that it is more "responsive" than my V1.0. I put this down to:
reduced weight
tail pulls in sooner
thinner rails.
this one is going to be fun
Really nice looking board Husq.........I reckon they surf so much like a performance mal.
BTW.......that's a smick looking lawn you've got there......love a good lawn
husq2100 Nice boards. I hear what you're saying about how you can go thinner and narrower when you go long. What kind of fins are you using? On my 10' Laird Pearson I tried all kinds of different thruster/tri fin configurations and just couldn't get it right. I finally tried an 8" single Hobie fin and it worked great. First single fin I'd ridden in 20 years!
