depends hay. a good one with all the fetaures can set you back 450 but a basic one with no channels nose bulbs or stringers will prob be 300-350.

QCD boards are doing a deal till april for free channels and free nose bulbs which drops the price by around 70 dolars.

yeh and then you can get yellow churchills and look like everyone else...

nah just kidding mate, hardy boards are good but it is my advice to take the specs off a regular hardy and get qcd unknown or function to make it for you. itll be cheaper and you wont look like a clone!

 

[um..]

go for an nmd on the cenny coast, best custom lids you can get. mertz has been doing them for ages, all my lidding mates get theirs from there

so expensive for an nmd custom these days though... i remember the good old days when mez strictly did customs... i kinda like the winchester pro model though... i reckon he is the new hardy. everyone wants to be winny

 

[um..]

mez is nmd, isnt it?

 

[Atticus.]

yep but he barely shapes the boards anymore unless you know him or your friends with someone who does...

i have a cyclone aswell.

 

[um..]

i sell them, they're pretty kiff. way too much flex and shitty cores

ive found that manta's in general are shit... they dont take care in production becuase they are mass produced... customs are the way to go...

well i didnt have much money when i bought it
it does me fine

but yeah after i pay back my car i'm gonna buy a new board for next seasons summer

 

[Atticus.]

im going to w.a at the end of the year to surf so hopefully i dont snap my old board b4 i go, becuase you need two boards over there

 

[um..]

yeah im hoping to head over there some time in the next year too, made some friends from there over in indo.
the kid i work with goes on tour with the no friends team to WA every year

whats so good about W.A
i know margrets river is there.
is there better swell on the west than the east coast of australia?

 

[um..]

it cops so much more swell than the east coast it's not funny, if you think about the swell window it has it's pretty unbelievable.
so much more powerful as well.
and you have places like the box

 

[bowman]

the box is at margrets river aye?

 

[um..]

yeah across the bay and out to sea a bit. i tried to find pics of places like north point, red bluff etc but i couldnt, they're crazy as well
