Well I say Wombats can really surf,I've surfed with LL for a couple of years now and today he really stood out,one wave in particulur he smashed the living crap out of it.
Massive cutties followed by lip smacking slashes,LL is no longboarder gents although he plays with his hotlog the Wombat is his animal,I don't give out well dones often but fk me he blow the place apart.







Oh yeh,PRICK

board goes really good but believe me - mac is talking it way way up.



and i refuse to give him any money



mac's orange board seemed to handle the low tide drops from what i saw. not bad for a fat day board.


can't wait to see the 'Sargent Mac' board in action

Sheesh...you two...get a room...lol!

Yep pics or the rumours that you two sit round puling cones, drinking stubbies and making things up for the internet will only persist

haha I was watching One Californian Day yesterday and there is segment about the old coffee drinking donut eating father figures in the carpark.

ok, this is a photo of the wombat mark 2 and the fin set up recommended and provided to me by the beau young himself for which i'm very thankful




sides gl size , centre 7.5 a pretty stiff fin with lots of layer of glass.

the board is fast and loose. its 6'2 but in my mind surfs shorter.

the 2 plus one set up in a board this long gives you lots of power and confidence to be able to really give some on the bottom and top turns with control. something that at times you lose on a board like say the nano.

the over all feel of the board is flow.

imo has little to do with any long board feel


i've been told the board comes a small as 5'6 up to 8. however i couldn't imagine getting one of these that long.

the full nose gives you that bit of paddle power without have to be boat size.

i think mine is 6'2 x 20 3/4 x 2 3/4- mid to low rails.

hope that helps those interested

cheers

ps i intend to surf this when there's enough wave not to have to get the log out up to when its time to get the hp short board out for top to bottom waves or quality waves


pps you can google for more info about the board

www.beauyoungsurfboards.com/wombat-mark-ii/

he tells me that board was 6'4. he uses a 5'6 atm

I like the look of that over the Sub,tails pulled in more like a conventional board with widest point up under chest for better paddling and the diamond tail shortens the rail length slightly,would like to know what volume the 6'2 is and would be great to demo one,looks like a great summer small wave board,how do you like it have you ridden it yet

Siiiiiiiiiick, looking board and Mann he can surf fully hanging 5 on a 6'4" is freakin amaaazeballz

Looks like a fun board mate. Its very similar to one of my boards that I've ordered, I'm going from the 6'4 to the 6'0. The 6'4 has the same dims, except its 2 inches longer, I ride it as a quad & its less rounded in the nose. So volume would be very similar...I find they're great up to head & a 1/2 & super fast. So fast they refuse to stall into the barrel, you havta do delaying bottom turns & slot in. But you can also dig an arm in to slow down on the bowly ones once your in...I love mine, the only draw back from a lot of positive is the flat rocker can make it hard coming down from steep off the tops & it can be a real rodeo ride landing turbulent floaters with all that width. Awesome summer boards to have when peeps on regular performance shortboard dims are struggling

this board has rocker, not huge, but enough not to be worrying about nursing it back down. it was one of the main things he changed from the original 'wombat'

a guy i know who works in the shop had a go on the 5'6 and wanted to buy it off him B.Y. then and there

Note to ones self,must never sell these board!

Actually Mick PC I can see where your coming from thinking about it. That vid the board looks flat. I reckon he has tuned the board with more rocker since that video because in my mind the board is more carvyer to use then what he was showing.

Sounds good man. I'd say the board in the vid is a lot longer than 6'2, probably 6'8/7'2 'ish...but anyway, you'll have it wired by summer. There'll be no stopping ya, cheers

the platypus- great short board-6'2, tinted, old school bridged leggie leash tie. not longboard for sure but shaped by a ex world lb champ.

not the greatest of photos. i was encouraged to try it with shapers s9's with a trailer fin. after the success withe the wombat fins who am i to argue




surfed it today like this- left fin way to loose, right fin a bit to tight but good



went to shapers and brought this- hopfully just right cheers
