Looks similar to the one I saw on your car the other day


same lenght, thinner in the standing area plus channels, oh and a black pinline





bit harder to stay on, but the ride is well- fully sic

btw i managed not to say that word

the tail looks more pulled in too


Come on Lacey when can I prone this beast

Best SB I ever owned was a Surf More made in Tugun until it fell apart early 80's.

Lacey and his wild bunch hooked me up with Nick from Mt Woodgee and up the hill we went in yellow kingswoods and dirt bike to order a custom.

i had a blue longboard with pink rails with the name jay written on the nose 20 yrs ago...that was to be a keeper

it was in storage in melbourne...and was sold when my old man didnt pay his storage rent.

anyone in vic ever see this board? it is very distinctive with the blue and pink and name. could be in your shed :)

Did you get this over in the States? Is it the Eliminator 6'8"? Nice looking board.

bessellsurf.com/

The boards, made of carbon fiber, are completely hollow. The High Temp Fiber Placement Process allows them to be some of the lightest boards ever seen. There is nothing tying the top and bottom together except for the rails. This enables the deck and bottom to work and flex independently. This unique feature acts like suspension, launching you form one turn to the next.

Since the deck is not directly connected to the bottom, the deck absorbs and stores the energy from the rider, then propels you forward, allowing the board to be in an almost constant state of acceleration. All this time the bottom of the board keeps the rocker intended. Everything from paddling to driving down the line will take on a whole new perspective.
