They could but board brands would go bust and it would probably cost $8000 better to do 2000 less loops a year

Don't drive your van over it next time. It's just a flesh wound anyway! Send it down and I'll "Beef it up" for you Clarky.

Fix it up your self Gclark1machine and give it to the new up and frothing kids, they will love it ,1 kg heavier ,and none the wiser, still looks the goods and goes hard. Plus was a board owned by a professional looper,loopy loopster, with history.
So how many boards can you break ???????????
One bloke ,Capitan, from Queensland told me to look after my gear. Hmm hmm.
Jp thruster quads are really nice, I think j sails sells them.

Bombora Tri-Fin - they are broken before they come out of the factory!

In the last 2 years I have broken a JP, a Naish and a Starboard - Does anyone have an Fanatic I can borrow?

I have had one MAST for 7 years, one harness for 7 years...

The 55 is still a "fixer-upperer' and I will leave it in the shed for now, in case anyone has a burning desire.

Relic - It's yours if you have a market.

Loaning you a waveboard would be like Air B&Bing you house to Keith Moon.....Love the "sharing economy" vibe...XD

I reckon its in one of those places in the background JS. Actually he may be interested in some 20" harness lines I don't use any more.
