Riding the Bonza shortboard at the beachbreak north side of youth center. [ooking foward to the Bonza longboard arriving in abt 3 weeks. Knee surgery been put back to middle of March - elective surgery - so hopefully get a few surfs in on the new Smik!



Do not see the speed that this board is capable of on these vids - but a couple of waves were racetrack efforts.
Glassy cause it rained most of the time we were there. Site had a nice glassy water layer in annex as well

The new board probably will be faster between peaks along the beach and perhaps to sprint across to a take-off point, but mainly for stability between waves, easier on the knees and generally not as tiring all round - stay out longer? Or a couple of surfs in a day? Steve

Ordered late Oct - will arrive late Feb - 4 months which includes probably 3 to4 weeks transport! I did check with Scotty at the end of Jan which was the origional arrival time, but as he explained - DUE TO COVID every thing is affected ie: material supplies, employees ( affected also by their families ), transport and links -- nothing that the manufacturer can control - just got to suck it up! Steve

Update for arrival of board - apparently just being painted - not on boat ( miscommunication ), so will not arrive till after operation, seems like first paddle will be mid July! Bummer - but have the rest of my life to enjoy it - with my new knee!! Yahoo ps - just got to suck it up!

geeprs that looks great!
What are the dims again?

Must be out of the same factory, my JL was on the boat and due any day now

Thanks Finsup - I am after speed and stability - hope those dimensions and shape provide both! Steve
