Saw a scorpion for the first time on eBay last night.

Just sharing my stoke, these boards are so nice.

Anyone ever ridden one??

Haven't ridden.
Look very nice... But they have a stack of foam in the nose, and a gun inspired pin tail. Malibu nose... The tail should perform well in head high waves, but you would have too much nose for that style of wave...

Super sick boards form the looks....some really nice design ideas in there for bigger/older guys that still want to ride a short board.....

I bought a 6'8" Surftech scorpion.
I wanted a light, responsive board for crowded days at Noosa that I could not be too concerned about copping the odd bump and scrape in the mayhem.
The Byron made poly's are very nice but I've already got a quiver of nice poly's that I'd rather not surf when it's uber crowded.
The board has amazed me in that I totally forget its a tuflite and it goes great as a quad.
