Love the tail shape.. High volume without being too boxy.

I work in the sup game and from all reports these boards are all sold out already in the 14ft mark and as for the 12'6's i think gone as well. I couldn't even get my hands on one for myself.
Looks like i will be waiting until the new year to get one in my hands.
Only once ever in my life have i ever seen something and said i want it no matter the costs and that was the iphone when first out and this would of been the other. Oh well it looks like i am going to have to wait.......

Checked out the new shop yesterday and was told some boards will be available later this week so might be worth a phone call direct to suss out.
Both the 12'6 and 14 look great, though couldnt quite fit in the suitcase to bring back to Vicco with me.

Can anyone explain the advantage of having the soft handles near the handle hole?

They're for racing. Heaps easier when running through the break and something to grab onto when you get caught inside by a set.

We just got in a new JM Surftech 12'6'' for demo. Hoping to be the first person in Vic to try it, unless DJ beats me to it!.....Friday is looking good for a ''Cruise to the Cerebus''.
