When you've tried what's on the market and nothing fits you, sometime you do need custom boards!! and you are glad if some people are still here to make them
Anyway he tried it this morning, loved it ...everybody's happy
Here is a clue , it looks like a 14'/28" ... but it's not

I'm taking a guess; Luke is 7'2.

16 x 31"

I'm guessing the paddle is a reclaimed telephone pole....

7'2 or 218cm....
I'll guess 15'0 x 29"...

Adds weight to opening up the 14'0 Class to a Formula.... example, riders over 190cm, up to 14'6, and over 200cm can have up to 15'0.... Just throwing it out there... Too hard basket though!

Simon, I didn't see any of these tall bastards agreeing to drop the height of the basketball ring whenever any of us short arses were attempting to lay up so I say screw 'em - make them race 12'6" like the rest of us.

i got a look at this board. it is wide seeing as the owner is a little on the tall side.

it is a very nice looking board. theres talk of doing a normal width board like this

As well as being an Aussie legend, Luke is a genuine down to earth, top bloke!

Looks pretty happy with his new DC. Great looking board.
His paddle does make mine look like a kiddies paddle though...

looks like a similar size to my new weapon. loving the new shape, has to be the fastest board on the water i believe. super stable as well!

Come on Tryfan, you're the one pointing out how happy he is with his "dc" looks in his hands, and as for cmc video I don't even want to click that big arrow in the middle. But seriously it's good to see the big fella very happy with his new sport, and he is very happy with his new board.
