What model is it Locky?

Sorry mate didn't know which board you were asking about
The Stuart is now SOLD.

The Orange one is a Ross Head, It is a one off that was made for me ( I also had a lot of imput which was good ).
When it was finished Ross made templates off of it as he had a few guys wanting retroy/fishy kind of shapes.
Ross is a really great guy and was a shaper for Hayden for over 20 years and has been shaping since the 70's.
He now just shapes/glasses from home for himself and really knows his stuff.
The only thing is if you wanted to re sell it it won't go as quick as a big label brand like a firewire , burton, dhd or a js.

If you want to let me know when you are up this way next, well do the hook up and you can surf the thing if you like.

Locky the yellow one will do

Asea, have only had a chance to surf the yellow one twice so far ( conditions have either been to maxing out or to small)
Still waiting to see how it really goes

Have a crack on a Sweet Potato - best and most fun board I have ever ridden. Yes I have said it before and I will say it again - absolutely love this weapon!!!! I have the 5'10" - 43 litres I think it c omes in at. I could go smaller but will not be parting with it until it falls apart. Goes great from knee high to 1.5 (if its clean and glassy) otherwise over headhigh it can get a little skatey.

My next board will be the Potato-nator. I saw one in a Manly store the other week and fell in love. It has all the advanatges of the SP but will give you a bit more range on the topside. I think this board and my 6'6" Silver Bullet will be the ultimate combo.


As the name implies, the POTATO-NATOR is the result of gene-splicing the SWEET POTATO and the DOMINATOR. With a longer rail line and less girth than the POTATO, and a slightly pulled in nose similar to the DOMINATOR, the POTATO-NATOR is meant to be ridden 4"-6" longer than a POTATO, and approx. 2" shorter than the DM. The double concaves are softer than the SWEET POTATO and while the overall rocker has been increased slightly to enhanced performance, the low entry rocker remains which makes paddling a breeze. Designed primarily for 2'-4' surf, the POTATO-NATOR will hold its own in 3'-5' as well. Fin placement is optimized to be ridden as a quad, but don't be afraid to throw in a small, knubby trailer fin to help this hybrid 4-finner come alive in new ways. Splice and dice it up!

Al Merrick Biscuit....super flat and super fat...goes like a rocket in the junk and if you fin up a bit you ca ride it in some more soild juice....mine is 6'2 x 21 x 3...I honestly thought I was to big to ride anything under a 6'6 but I was way wrong

I suggest a Super Fish XL, I just tried the 8' version and it paddles like a 9' longboard but surfs like a short board. 5 fin placements, fast and fun in smaller waves, you can even noseride it if that's what you wanna do!!
