Hi everybody!
This is my new board, and it's a great pleasure for me if i present to you my precious longboard.
I'm French so it's a French board

shaped by a great French shaper.
9.1 x 22,5 x 3

The link of my shaper : Alain Minvielle.

Nice looking stick! Who did the artwork? Or is it a digital print? How was it done? Looks great.

The leggie string comes up through the fin box, very old school idea.

Nice board! Doesn't it really suck when you have it in the sun and all the wax melts 10x faster?

I think you are right - so it must just be an extra super polish then!

And a very easy way to do it. I do not like them done this way personally but some people love 'em. Each to their own

That's a nice looking stick Blackman, almost too nice to wax

I had a look on your shapers website, his logo looks a lot like the Bob McTavish Swallow so he must be a good shaper.

My current board has an entirely black rear from about a foot in front of where the fin is, all the way to the tail... I have given up trying to wax it

Nice looking board alright .

The only worry is to a shark from underneath I reckon that would like like a nice big fat seal sunning on top of the water

Does anyone know can sharks recognize colours

Talking to a sales assistant on then weekend and she reckons that wetsuits now come out with flouro colours so Surfers don't look like seals dressed in black wet ties

Were you drinking at the bar during that lecture...

But I'm 99.9% sure they can only see black and white, although then... why do fish like different color lures on different days.

And for dark boards try cream wax, doesn't melt as easy.

and it'd go alright up on the bedroom ceiling after you were done surfing and retired her - be like a mirror

Can understand where you are coming from Weiry I am not so keen on the completely black wetsuits these days , even though I know they are supposed to absorb more heat .

No not at the bar SP ( I wish )
