Thinking... Thinking... I am thinking about this custom tint for my Sumo. Except, the black stripe would be royal blue.

What do you all think?

Big board!!! I know you like your big boards but jeepers that will have loads of volume so I thought you might go a bit smaller..........what conditions are u planning to ride it on?

I do like this one BUT the girls at Board Culture have a really nice red/white/black version of the egg, show stopper imho

Hey Simondo, I like the black stripe for impact but on sunny days the wax will melt (maybe not in vicco though!). We have a 6'4 Twinfish in the shop that's virtually the same colours (a bit more black) and it gets lots of good comments.
But personally i think a darker blue stripe as you say (or maybe even purple or orange - depending on the tone) would be more practical than black.
And I think 62mac has had black and won't go back to that again! (surfboards that is) - Mark

If you look at the HPD site Simondo go to the blog section where there are 2 pages of tint / pigment combo's to drool over.

Fark me... on Google, after searching for images of surfboard tint, you can then click Blue on their colour chart, and then the blue tints variations are displayed !! Wow !

I think I might go for this scheme on The Sumo ! Double Stringers, White Tint, Blue Bands. Simple but neat.
