Nice boards Phil, very jealous.
Have you got the Bullet back in Oz?
You should bring that F18 down & do the Hawkesbury Classic in 6 weeks?
who sells them, how mutch and how do they get them to you in one peice ,the wrapping paper looks pretty minimal,love the orange camo, also what conditions do you decide what board to use
Nice looking quiver there Phil, hoping it's Christmas for me this week.
New board should arrive Wed-Thurs, I hope.
Thankfully, there is a new Gold Coast Council By-Law that states you can only own 1 Down Wind Board, and any additional boards need to be made available to the public.

I am sure this has been discussed before so bear with me.
Which nose shape is better for short chop we get in WA ie 20knots with a small cross swell?? Short 5 to 10k DW close to shore.

In the photo you have Scott Trudon on a custom F18 he rode it every time i saw him in Maui.He won the Naish race last year on it. 4th this year.But the conditions are perfect on the Moliko so you could get away with a rounder rail.The Bullet(up to 25knots) or F16 are the best rough water boards.The bullet you have to move around on alot more because of flat rocker. it is faster than F16.The F16 is the board for 25+knots good rocker you stay in the middle of the board alot when paddling and standing on the tail on the bigger swells.I did 20 down winders on the Moliko run while i was on holiday in Maui. 3 runs on a 14 Naish and 17 runs on a custom F16.
The F16 is so much fun.![]()

Who paddles up wind F*** that how do you class that as having fun. Mate have a go at the last 3km of the Molokai race 30 knots of head wind (pure punishment) I love training & I train hard. But paddling into the wind is pure torture, only kooks paddle into the wind.
G'day Lacey
