pardon my ignorance, because I don't have one, I don't really listen too carefully when you talk about them.

The reason I'm asking is because I know where there's a 10' one for 450 and I'm thinking of trading my Tohurst for it because I'm not using the Tol too much.

I don't know the other dimensions, I couldn't get it out of the rack.

What can a Fireball ?

It can get Mac started going on about them for hours & hours & hours & hours

OK, they are imho the ultimate all rounder,flame suit on.

Sure there are many others that can match it but,I believe
its best is in the 9.6 range,anything smaller go HP anything
bigger go a cruiser,10 foot it not the length for the FB.

disclaimer - owned many FB's and huge fan of the brand and
can't wait for my new 9.6.

My 9.4 FB, was the best board I've EVER owned and still kicking
myself for trading it.

Daneli's Munro looks the goods.the only other board I would think about
at this stage.

get that upya asea, astroboy[}:)]

Hey Mac, What do you call a crusier? Dimensions?

Cheers

9.6 x 23 x 3 in the redline outer shape low rocker type.

To me its a board simply to trim,cruise along the face.
A wave magnet

Thanks Vanders, I'll take you up on that

My newie will be present at R3

obct get that 10 footer for 450 and go straight to the top of the pecking order you'll love it. Although being up on the pecking order doesn't mean you have to pick off every wave that comes through.

Mate once I'm on the thing there ain't much room for parties........your more than welcome to have a crack.

Daneli - anytime mate, just let me know when your heading down next.

Probably easier to say what they cant do.....I have a 9'6 and it has done everything you can realistically do on a mal.

Next one will be a 9'1 though.

Have had it in fast overhead waves and it can take a fast drop then have had it in fat cruisy waves and had a ball trimming and nose riding on it.

So you like them eh?

Ha ha that would be a fair assumption Doggie, credit where credit is due, its a great design.

Hi Mac,

Got your PM but seabreeze won't allow a reply yet, just in case I'm spamming.
Appreciate the help and I'll keep an eye out. Let me know if something come sup
(oh no ... I meant comes up)
Cheers

No worries dotcom

OK, for anyone that's interested,I have arranged a meeting with Bob at the mct factory to have a chat about board designs and a beer for R3.

I told him there's a bunch of old buggers in town and he is happy to share his time with us.

Nice work Mac..more incentive to get there

Its a Mctavish right
