I have just dusted this board off, so thought I'd show it off.
My brother had it made for me in 2003 by legendary Margaret river shaper Martin Littlewood. The bro said that at first Marty was very hesitant to shape a single seeing as he hadn't really done it since the early eighties, but he was pretty stoked with the finished product. Marty said the fin design he put on this board (ie the rake etc) was pretty much the peak of what they got to with singles before the thruster was introduced.
I surfed this beauty pretty much exclusively all through 2003 and 2004. Its even been to the abrolos islands and surfed a ridiculously long right hander. Its a keeper and will never be selling it. Its time for it to get back in the water though!!

Looks like a nice board mate

Tony Harding an old neighbor of mine from when I lived at the back of the blue house down in Margs was awesome on a single, probably still is...saw him at the Eagles Heritage 3 years ago after about 14 years & he still looked the same. Then again your not going to age much in appearance when you have a huge beard Just saying coz I think he used to shape his boards at Delta.
