I managed to get a couple of shots of the new 12'6 Pene - but the site wont let me up load the images - I guess you will just have to see it at the Noosa Race.
Ahhh, you're killing us with the suspense. This is the race board I am very tempted to get - assuming not too many more of those silly 12ft and under races pop up.
Has Woogie test ridden it yet? If so, how does it go?
Don't mean to keep you hanging but the computer wont let me load anything.
Sorry it is side ways
The great thing about working close to an artist like Stuey you get to put ideas out there.
Wow thats looks insane , definetely left feild and a classic Stuey displacement hull straight out of the Americas Cup.......
Thought you would like some more photos - this board is for the surfing side of things - Just got it from the factory and it is ready for a test spin tomorrow morning - rain hail or shine.

Looks great Stuey.. .. I love the twin exhaust.
Looking at that pic from the rear it would be easy to think the top is the bottom and visa versa..
Can't wait to see more pics of it.
Great paint job on the wave board.

The launch of the NEW Laguna Bay 12"6 will hopefully be tonight if TC Hamish stays away.
Stuey is just putting the finishing touches on the board as we type.
Lions park probably around 4:00 pm
Thats great can't wait to see the finished product , Jodie can you tell me when the Sup surfng heats are on ?
just been watching coastwatch web cam and can see nationals and little point peeling with 16 million crew all over it
looks good
hope the swell hangs around for the comp next week
Hey Jodie, any feedback on how the 12'6" twin-exhausterator goes or any more photos? I'm kinda nervous/excited because Stuey is planning to do my 14' in the same style.
My night time mental rambling are running on overdrive.....wonder what happens on a wave - maybe water rushes in and accelerates you down the wave....hang on, what about a little rubber flap valve thingy hinged from the top of the bridge, water goes out but doesn't come in.....what if I step back doing a spin pirouette bail out and ending up with a 14' clog jammed on my left foot....I know nothing, Stuey knows everything.....Woogie is amped - must be good....a week to go.....suspense is killing me.
The flap system works well on other craft. They have it on a surf boat i used to be in a number of years back. The water drains fast when you are going forward. Talking about surfboats i was run down by the Burliegh Club about 5 weeks back in the large swell off Pt Cartright. It was sideways with a ski attatched to it and slidding along the face of the wave. Had to abandon the SUP and swim to the bottom. Hapy outcome with neither the board or me getting hit. Can't say the same for the ski paddler.
This is probably better in here to follow up.
If your doing the SUP race you will feature on RamboCam, same goes for the SUP Surf events.I'll be filming on and in the water and from the rocks at Nat Park.
Post the vids here couple of days later.
If i get the gear working in time for this weekend, i may have a "live feed" also from a cam via the Telstra NextG Network and streaming to the net in real time.
I'll Post the link to the streaming site here if it goes ahead. You will only need a browser and media player with your firewall disabled. Will look similar quality and size to this with a chat window as well.
Cheers Rambo

Not sure about that. We will check with Guy Walker to make a more reasonable plan for the Honolua event.
By the way the SUPSA is back on track again! We will start a new thread soon on this. We can use SUPSA to help get some uniformity set up on all of these issues.
A new committe has been set up to steer it forward from here:
Ross Munro is President
Mike Manning (that's me) is Vice President
Chris McCall is Secretary
Troy Pease is Treasure
Phil Gregory Events Organiser
More on this later....
