Stingray Hydrofoil (for your stinkboat motor from 40hp upwards)

I had had this old one and decided to get a new one to see if it works / looks better. So packaging looks better than the product. The products itself is faded and has a corner chewed out (probably by a shark )

^^^ Going off the 'other' forum.... I thought kiters invented hydrofoils?

^^ never yet seen false advertising in a 'free' thread

Not a true freewave since they improved out of sight in 1996 and 2006 ....

Brother, Peace.

"Freewave" it is a state of mind and this craft is is a cosmic spaceship freewheeling and drawing lines like the euphoric flower children surfing waves the 1980s !

It is the windsurfing equivalent of the craft ridden by Bobby Brown in the 1960s from the hot generation of the 60s.

Take up the mantle if you dare !

^^ oh no insult intended brother. Just that nobody would sail it. A Bombora in as-new condition is guaranteed to be the only one. Keep it pristine!

I have the following going for free. One is my very first board a Bombora 295 and the other is a Sean Ordonez Custom Quatro (collectors edition). Both are in good condition and both come with fins and footstraps. I will be taking them down to the Safety Bay Windsurfing Club Swap Meet next weekend 12th October if you want them.

Unfortunately, as soon as the sail is rigged and put under any tension, all the Mylar will instantly delaminate off the fabric base material (at least going from past experience).

I wish I could give the board a home, as it is from the era when I learnt to sail. :-(

Free Bombora 295 140 Litres-Free on pick up and the board includes footstraps but without fin. It is the last generation of the Bombora with the wide point moved back, with the power box and it is in good condition.Very durable and suit someone wanting to get into slalom sailing on a budget.

Hey ratz, thank you so much for the windsurfer gear mate.

Just got back from Bunbury and I finally got to pick the stuff up from where you kindly delivered it for me to collect.

I will certainly put it to good use on my land yachts.

I owe you a beer or two.

Cheers Chook

Hey peeps got some stuff here for anyone learning or want to make something else out of. will swap for a stubby...make that two. We'll drink 'em while we drivel windsurfing stuff.

4.4 sail works wave sail. This has been very kind to me over the years when i was using it. Tough little sail. one tear fixed with 100mile tape.





and a couple of booms large (chinook) and small (scalpel)
1 x chinook slightly bent from a high speed unplanned dismount
1 x Scalpel still in original shape
