An all press coffee!,considerd a hair cut ,and beard trim,that was one of the impressive things 4 barbers going hard ,the most hipsters I've seen,since my last trip to Byron !The world longboard trophy caught my eye,possibly Harrison''s.. Ah the boards you mean!,had a real good look,lots of eye candy!,the repair rack.also was impressive..Bings.Tylers,Gato's ect..lots of hungry rocks at Noosa,I've been interested in Thomas's journey from Mums garage to the current 3million + p/a gig it is today,the one design that interested me was Harrison's model most of the board was what you would expect,however the chine up front was at the least extreme,and quite sharp re edges,as I love design,I'm guessing it's about release and lift,would have loved to have discused that with someone who knew.Then there was the control room upstairs with about 4 people on computers ,then the section that appeared to be shaping rooms ,large fitness room dedicated to performance surfing,with some elite athletes doing there thing !,it appears that core strength is paramount! large glassing room, that is a back drop to the show room,and as was stated in the first post the respect your mum neo sign, as i said very impressive!!! ( Disclaimer)I'm not connected in any way with Thomas Surfboards just quietly respectful of a successful family journeys like this
