Thats me and im riding a 10ft Honolua board. They are shaped by a local shaper on the Gold Coast Daniel MacDonald.

And its made up of 6 bits of foam with stronger foam stripes going down the middle.

So where they join it looks like a stringer but its not

Can u see wat i mean know DJ?

With the stretched blank (6 bits of foam)

The glue makes it look like they are stringers but their higher density of foam stripes.

Yeah..It's a nice looking board..very nice.

How's it holding up to compression dents under the feet areas?..(just wondering)..the high density foam must help.

Is it just me or does the that leggie looks a bit on the skinny side....(Not picking)....I think I've seen thicker ones on boogie boards..

Also..That carbon/kevlar swallow tail single flyer (winger?) with the wood deck and pink pad looks like a beast..[}:)]..I like it.

Thanks for the extra pics..It's a shame you cant get a good view of the outline from that view..I like the nose and tail shape.

You've gotta love the 10'6" Naish..It looks great from all angles..

DJ

I was talkin' about leggies the other day to the guys in the shop..and they reckon Balin are the best..?

How popular are Balin leggies up there..What about Full Bore?

One of the US guys was asking me about them (FB) but I don't seem to see them here anymore.

He said they were the best but can't get them in the US anymore.

DJ

Yes..But I think Balin are so popular because they are made local (Flinders or Rye I think)..and they claim to be the only leggies still made in Oz.

Full Bore are also pretty local (local company)..they're in Torquay I think..but made OS.

I heard that the way to go for sup is half coiled and half straight..with the straight end hanging off the back of the board and dragging in the water putting tension on the coiled end that goes on the ankle...Sound like an idea..There has only been prototypes so far but someone might make them if they work that good.

DJ

Yeah...Good luck Ben dover...You are representing Seabreeze forum you know...No pressure..

DJ

Yes, good luck ben. I hope the swell backs off just a bit so i can get out for a session at the alley this wkend.
As we all know i'm very picky with my sup conditions!! LOL

Oh yeh i've also handed your torn 10ft fcs leggie in and i have got you a 12ft replacement. Will make sure i get it to you or your dad asap.
