The evaluation begins on possibly the first of these boards in Australia.
I picked up my new 8 8 this week from SHQ and am looking forward to a decent surf in the morning. Photos of the Virgin stick are attached.
Impressions are interesting finish on the Pro version with the rubbed back base and gloss rails.
Smooth lines with good rocker, rails taper nicely from the flat deck to quite sharp near the tail.
Weight, set up with FCS Quad fins

I added my RailSaverPro in clear and some Deck Grip Paint to the Nose.
Next stop Inverloch beach!








and leg rope, just under 9kg!
