Na I'll be serious, I have the model t and the nose rider is based of that but with a pulled in tail from my experience the model t is a great board and the tail on the nose rider would help it turn better.

What type of waves do you want it for?

Perfect for it... The model t is built for small fat waves with a bit of length and I'd say the pulled in tail would be better than the big square. Once your up its like walking on a pavement they are that stable. Only thing I can't comment on is the tuflite, mine is glass.

I did surf an older 10ft Tak, and boy it was so hard for me to surf. It was a full on noserider and looked beautiful but I had to go in slow mo just to surf it. After straining my groin again I traded it in for my McTavish and never looked back. The one on the right as you look at it.

I shouldn't comment on prices in another country but, 1100 clams for a second hand board in any condition seems a lot.

I guess I base my assumption on the fact that the same board could probably be bought new in oz for 1500.

I thought the same OBCT, at the current exchange rate it is about $850 oz money.

But gee some of the other on that site are expensive. Multiply the price by .77 to get proper money..

$850 is what you would expect to pay in oz if it was close to perfect.

Less competition for goods here so we get seen off a bit. The retailers here know its cheaper in oz but with shipping and tax it raises the price a fair bit, so they keep their prices around that price knowing they've got you by the knackers.

There's a shop owner over here who has gone straight to the manufacturers so gets a better deal on boards. He's now knocking out boards at far far better rate than the shops over here who sell the surftech boards (he's selling boardworks stuff) ..see if he has any affect on bringing the prices down or not?

I envy both the choice and prices you fellas have in OZ but I don't envy the crowds and agro you have..so I guess you have to weigh it up. That said I can't wait to visit next year as I have heaps of family in and around Sydney.
