Looking for upgrade, namely in weight, in 14' class.
Been on production SB carbon till now, fast, but fill up like a bucket and sluggish around buoys,
Considering shipping a customs board from OZ as we don't have anyone (that in know of) making custom racing kit here in Enzed.
Any ideas team?
dc has made some boards for some very big man- luke longley for one, they don't come much bigger. he knows whats needed
I have noting against customs because they have their place .. but .. I don't know why you would bother with a custom board with all the great boards that are available now that have been proven and tested so there is no risk that it won't perform.. So unless you're super light.. or super heavy.. or just want something very different I recommend buying a board from a shop.

I always find it amusing reading peoples opinions on which boards may or may not work. As JM himself said, it's all about choosing a board, getting comfortable and making it work for you.
Good to see some people still willing to support small/local business especially with current economy.
Personally I see mass produced boards as being a greater risk, as the big company's wait an entire year for the new range before they change possible problems in design. And i would like to see some evidence supporting claims about varying Degrees of testing.
Try Bruce Nicholson at BigWorld in Auckland he does some pretty nice custom stuff.
