they are still a very very good board. not everyone can afford to spend 6 grand plus bring one in from hawaii.
Lacey it's not about the money. I as well don't have 6 grand. (
If you wanna play you have to pay ) But you get what you pay for. I for one will always go for a custom shape.
All custom boards, it dose not matter what brand they are, are better than any board made from cobra like I say you get what you pay for. TRUE
90% of the boards that come from the cobra factory have major or minor defects TRUE
it is about money- $3500 v $7000. for most its a no brainer. sure the hawaiian board would be better, particularly if you want custom, but most of us aren't the mick fanning's and parko's of dw ing. the difference is not worth $3500.
phil you've had a custom f16 up for sale for years on the breeze. started at $5000 plus or so. last i saw it was $4000.
don't know if you have sold it or given up, but thats a huge deprecation.
what you have stated and what the reality is, well its two different things.
i would like a custom too, but they are well and truly out of most people budgets.
like you said they are a rich mans toy now
ps have you tried a cobra bullet
pps a moulded hollow bullet isn't going to be a custom unless you are filthy rich and can pay for a one off mould- highly unlikely
