Flashes like a metal lure as it moves through the water, just need a set of trebble hooks on the back!

Stock model DC14 with full carbon option.

Not exactly sure, I asked Dale for a metalic finsh and he went out and found a paint that was suitable. You would have to check with DC

She's a beauty.. .. Watch that silver in the sun.. They usually don't like the UV.. ask any car paint shop... I like it and it should stay cool.

Anyone spot the new Naish 12'6" boards at the BOP? .. also the new Kialoa Race paddles..

I think our local guys fly out on the 5 to see the new range. Very keen to see some photos. Told them that if there is a new 9'hokua that may be an inch wider for the more well built guy then the greyhound out there, to stick it under their arm and bring it back.

I heard a rumor that they have made a couple of new 12'6" boards in diferent rider weight ranges. Hope this is all true.

Thats a sweet looking board , lacey let me have a paddle on his new 14 and it is very nice , fast and pretty stable for its width.

Thats real nice, whats the width and weight...

Weight came in a few grams over 10KG w/o grip

Width : I think Dale does the stock model at 30". He might have "tweaked" width and rocker a little to suit my exact needs.

Not to open the debate again, but thats why I went custom. I dont know a lot about this type of open ocean board, so was pointless for me to demo production boards in a creek. Felt more confident that I would end up with a board that will do what I want by having DC take a model which is a proven perfomer and add his minor detail changes to suit my weight, experience and expected useage
