BillBoard,

This one is going cheap for you. You have first right of refusal....

For sale is my one of my favourite longboards. This is a progressive board which, even someone of my ability can throw around from the tail. It has been heavily surfed, dinged and repaired. The fin box has a pro repair, after catching the fin, where the glass has been cut out and replaced. This is a very strong repair and has been surfed for over 3 years since with no problems. There are 3 larger repairs to the nose, and both sides of the tail have been repaired. There are numerous small and large repairs to the base and rails. Most repairs other than the fin box are basic and were performed by myself often down the beach. There is some heavy sun bleaching to the base. There are numerous compressions all over the board. There is a reasonable amount of de-lam, but the deck of the board is in surprisingly good order, showing the quality of the glassing. ...thin, narrow, small boxy rails, good tail-lift, which is valuable for high performance long boards. My brother replaced some of the de-lam sections, and re-glassed. It was glassed to last, but he left a few bubbles in the glass, and there are high spots, low spots, and spots where it has been rubbed through the clothe. The wax covers that bit OK though, so the glass fibres don't cut you up....

It $250 for you BB, or $280 for anyone else. Mac has organised transport for $250, plus his $50 in commission.

It was a cut, paste, edit of this link, which I stumbled across. It was a pretty funny description, and I thought I needed to share it for a laugh!

For sale is my Mctavish Jason Blewitt longboard. This is a progressive board which, even someone of my limited ability, can throw around from the tail. It has been heavily surfed, dinged and repaired. The fin box has a pro repair, after catching the fin, where the glass has been cut out and replaced. This is a very strong repair and has been surfed for over 3 years since with no problems. There are 2 larger repairs to the nose, and both sides of the tail have been repaired. There are numerous small repairs to the base and rails. All repairs other than the fin box are basic and were performed by myself often down the beach. There is some light sun bleaching to the base. There are numerous compressions all over the board. there is no de-lam and the deck of the board is in surprisingly good order, showing the quality of the glassing. Some old info: Developed with triple Australian Champion Jason Blewitt, the J.B. has set the standard for high-performance and contest surfing throughout the country....thin, narrow, small boxy rails, good tail-lift. The J.B. has won so many contests in its 10 year life it is THE benchmark performance longboard!! Photos at: s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb323/peppercombe/
Board is in Braunton, N. Devon Please contact Chris on: 07870815995 or email: Chrismartinathome@googlemail.com

From memory the Jason Blewit model is very similar to the Original model.

JB in the photo did have the same look as The Original. Except squash tail (squashed rounded square), instead of rounded pin for Original.
