Too true, soul surfers and Van Lifers would not stand a chance?

ha ha.... Poltergeist doesn't have a pointy nose, but still scarier!!

Tardy... looks mint my friend!!
The only SPX I have seen was 2 years ago and looked quite different, so I am not quite sure the exact difference between the SP25 and SPX, but I know the SPX also replaces the SP24, so must have some added capabilities in a bit larger juice than the SP25.

SPX Sounds perfect for Tardy's reefs!!
I can't wait to see his video slashes!!!

The more I look At the shape it does seem to be in the middle of the two SP24& 25 which is great news for me as I could not decide which one to choose .

would be interested in getting a close up of the rails particularly the tail section. I do feel the rails on the SP25 are pretty thick???

Hi Dave I don't know if this is enough to see the rails but they looked to be thinned out or domed out

Hi Tardy, looks like another fantastic board for you. Can't wait to see it in the water.

And in the sprit of repeats

i caught a rerun of Ray Martins and Ken Duncan's doco on your island home again the other night on SBS. Your nice little wave pool had good showing.

And the entire island looked amazing, a truly amazing place.

Cheers.

Steve.

That's beautiful Tardy, almost looks too good to get wet.
Just hang it on a wall and admire it

I'm currently doing a custom xxx tec revolution with a similar tint, really looking forward to it.
Enjoy mate!

Thanks Brenno ,it's built to shred ,but it will have the best board rack in the shed

looking forward to seeing the evaluation of the revolution .let me guess 28 x 130 .possibly a 9'0 .-9.2 .?

thanks Steveo1 .I'm loving the shape ,I hope it surfs as good as it looks .
