Well happy and a little sad because I dont know when I will be able to ride it. Its a beautiful board though. I like the shape and the glass job is really good too. Its a McTavish fireball evo2.
Very happy for you smh always a good feeling taking delivery of a new board.
Hope it cheers you up and it sure will make you work harder in the rehab stage.
Look at it this way the board will be well and truly cured.
The dimensions are perfect for asea and myself,is that a mct board bag?
Did they do you a deal on the bag?and last what was the turn around time
from order placement? bugger it one more what size center fin?
Happy Days
Sweet !! That style of glassing is really nice. Really popular lately. Quite funky!
I like it a lot !
Thanks guys . Mac the bag is a McT and yes I got it and the leggie as part of the package. Its a 7 in fin that looks black but when you hold it up to the sun its a really deep burgundy colour. Turn around time was only a little under 4 weeks and they told me because of the tint / pigment job it would be 6 weeks. It must have been a good time to order a board I guess. Had a good look right over it and its got a fair bit more rocker than what I usually ride. This will be good because I reckon it will turn good as well. My mate was over at the time giving me guitar lessons ( i dont think I'll ever learn it ) and he was pretty impressed with it. The missus even likes it.
7 inch fin is the perfect size smh,you'll be smashing it up in no time.
That's a fast turn around for a tint,I was told 4 to 5 but the next day
I was told its my lucky day,they had a blank in stock which saves 2 weeks.
I've only seen one Evo 2 in action and the way asea was smashing it up,they
look the goods.
Send it up here and I'll warm it up for ya
PS, you know I'm on their payroll
Sorry maybe tomorrow I hate pissing round with a GOPRO only get 1 1/2 hrs before work but that gunna change soon I hope , Logan Murry was there snapping maybe he will get some in PLB mag .There was a liitle Asian guy with two wet suits on getting some time in the green room
I've been thinking of getting a go-pro myself,be good to see how sh-t I surfI even asked asea the other day for some judgment.
Yr I've just got one of those wrist jobs not too bad when your sweeping can get some good stills
haha,but I do like your idea,on the white plugs and the stringer set up,when I read your post,I said dam I should have done that,too late now
Way too wild and woolie up here to think about a wave,things should improve come the weekend,looking at 3 foot sat and sunday
Yeah, sorry, my board was a G up.
But it might actually happen you know... August has been a pretty good month for me... But I would go 9'1 probably, x 22"1/2 x 2"7/8.
Mac, what were the dims on your son's board? I would go a fraction wider and thicker than that one. Or maybe just a fraction thicker actually. Just 1/8th thicker, but everywhere...
My post was only a half G up. I'm pretty keen on one of these ! Those bleed tints look great.... No pin lines are the go at the moment!
