looks great choco, how good is that, the OES boys overseeing and helping out,theres nothing like your own custom, is that a one off or is it going to be a new president for the OES guys
i wouldnt worry about the board not working , OES wouldnt bother to glass it if they thought it wasnt going to work

actually the odds are very high that he will be the first to sail it, sticking the pads on tomorrow and then deck grip, finish night shift tonight and got a few days off to play around with it.

sweet I would come up on the weekend to try it out but the forcast is only average.

I'm an old holden GTS monaro man myself really couln't see myself on a ford falcon GT board. or is a full GTHO choc. I think you will need the HO (handling option) part.

what fins are you planing on running with it around 24 ?


Really looks good Choc I bet you are really happy with it.

Well done Choco

This could spawn a whole line of boards with car themes

Doubt wether I will be buying a HB Torana "Brabham" though..... even saying it is a collectors item makes me laugh

Looked at doing the GTS found a nice car colour looks sweet, when I get back from overseas next month might freshen up my AB54 slalom thinking about the Repsol Honda colour scheme look nice 2 pack spray on the board.

Mineral the lake is FULL at the moment, the spit speed run will be in full play for the start of the seabreeze season, will be more water over this summer than last year.

Choc.
] just thinking about the monaros we used to trash when I was a young hoon.
had few good ones, I rolled one and another trahed into trees. Penny even had a sweet little torana for her first car. if only we knew back then.

Hope the board goes well, sure I will see it down here soon.
