Ok, Ok, I know this isn't a sailboard, but I thought this is worth sharing.

Every now and then an asthetically beautiful product graces our store.

Here's one that will be hard to top [ for awhile at least].

A worldwide limited run of these 12'6" x 30.5" boards has just been released, RPS was lucky enough to snap one up.

Now the hard decision......to keep it or offer it for sale.

That is nice!

If I owned that it would not get used. Hmmm.
Warwick - If you see a stalker in the shop just petting that item of beauty - don't worry its just me having a therapy session

Drool Can you now get one like that i can sail in jaraha

Wheres the outboard motor???

Is it just me or are these flat water SUPs starting to resemble kayaks?

At some stage someone is going to put a seat on one of them and say "bugger this, let's sit down and paddle"

btw - no denying it is a work of art

Very nice Warwick.
(I like the woodgrain Starboard Sup you've got out the back too!)

I wanted one of these limited edition Screamers, but they only made a few and I don't think any came to Oz.
(I never saw one)



When not sailing it would hang on the wall in the pool room, I reckon.

It's kayaking for people with piles anyway....

Though it looks like fun sometimes when it's light, in waves, teaching kids, doing lightwind freestyle, etc so maybe ....

I don't think you will find one of them in a Bondi bucket.

YAY!!! more fanatic products, lets watch it delaminate in the sun and develope soft spots from standing on it and hassle them for a warranty claim and them watch the rest of the season go by cause we have to wait half a year for a replacement

All in the eye of the beholder- wood is good?
Fibreglas is fine for fun and function
Let;s see- a 168H or 168M for me please.
700 Euros , 120 for shipping, should get it free of gst..



A couple for the shop?

Oldie - Are you going soft on us and planning on missing out on the IWC Brass Monkeys Challenge to take up snowboarding?

That's a very serious snowboard!

I doubt whether we could/would stock a weapon such as that, as we don't sell the skin-suits to match the board [ or the hard boots].

Ok, whilst we're still on the topic of beautiful wooden things, here's a fave that I will never part with.
We've had some great adventures together, a few first descents, hikes, snow-kiting and even some mellow groomer work.

I'll bet that a certain Fanatic only went bad after rattlig on a roofrack all the way to WA. Has the replacement got full approval?

Sigh... OK, I give up on the wood veneer thing- we have different philophisees it seems.
I would accept an original wooden longboard on my wall...

I am secretly glad when my new snowboard gets a queue scrape, cause I no longer have to guard it from rabid ratbags slathering to get back up on my practice pistes.

When you sacrifice your new stock for demo thrashing it must be a cause of bad dreams.
But I bet that you could get a half dozen of the softboot version of the extremecarver (the Dual) and sell them all.

Yes, please! Dry cold beats wet cold!
But, as there are only 2 good snow days at Baw Baw per season, and 10 at Hotham
everyone could find time to try to stop Simon or Dan retaking the trophy!
Does mylar shatter at zero degrees?

Hey Oldie,

I do like your comparison dry cold vs wet cold.

Windsurfing in winter is much like snowboarding in winter [ Aust], wet cold!

Avast there! Purge all memories of Buller fog and porridge piste and garbage bag apparel!
Remember only powder turns (while it was still snowing, of course )
First tracks which don't even show on the 7 am frozen corduroy.

Surely better than ice water down the neck while trapped under the sail...
