Nikki rejected this board, I think... I assume it had minor deck damage in transit...

Perfect condition otherwise. Wax would cover that anyway...

9'6... 22"3/4, although it felt like 23 under my arm. 2"7/8 thick, but felt more like 3 thick...

The boards great! Red, but with a really subtle burnt orange thrown in. Nice laps and pins...

Standard Glassing, kinda light. I liked it. Not too heavy.

Rails are Old School right through. Soft rails in the tail. 60/40 rails through the guts. Big volume thickness out near the rails, yet slightly knifey at the rails... Very interesting.

Concave up front, running to flat, then slight rolled Vee out the back.

Asking price at Quik Torquay is about $1350... But I think they would negotiate...

No sign of Nikki, Pup!

Oh, and a matte finish. Not gloss.

And this is more like a Preview, than a Review!

Im shocked that you would think simondo would so easily rat out on bob.


Well, did you buy it simondo or are you thinking about it.

Come on, we won't tell bob or mac

Nah Lacey, I won't be getting it! I'd like to ride it a few times though...

My Occasional Pin is a little bit too similar...
