Glad we opened up the class so these guys can race
Luc Longley and John Welborn
And the small guys are't the caddies
These big guys move some water not to mention the reach with the paddle

They really are some nice looking sticks. I'll be sure to keep an eye out as they fly past me on my 12'6 which will look tiny compared to them. Hey there's a thought I could show wifey Luc's board and tell her I could have one of those but being so considerate I went for a 12'6.

It's all relative, get luc on a 12'6" and it would look like he's paddling a short board.

I can understand you guys wanting to use the big boards since you have got them but damn I am doing it on a 12'6 and it was going to be hard enough watching Cam, Michelle and the 14's go past.

Do you need skippers tickets for them.

P.S. I can def see why Luc would need a 17.

It's a new addition to the WA DC family, only about three weeks old. It's Galvos, stimo can probably give you more info.

hard to get anything past you Laceys yes very new made for Mike Galvin full carbon
he hasn't even paddled it he is recovering from some cosmetic surgery (hes going to love me for that ) mike has found the rudder more of a hassle than what its worth in our runs short gutters you don't really use it yes good pushing against the wind to hold the line not like Molokai runs were you can get on the rudder and link them up (not that i have done it ) the board was quick in the flat but were it will liven up will be the ocean to many big biteys here at the moment
