My 6'8 Single fin rocks. One of the best boards I ever owned.

Even better that it's the CMC pro model shaped with CMC technology by CMC. Executive producer CMC.

Now I've just got to get it down there during a week day which is not going to be easy,so anyone heading that way please call out,they are at 5 Stewart Road Currumbin.

This one is 6'8 x 21 x 2 3/4. It's chunky and floats like a cork but get it on waves like point breaks or longer walls and it goes well in 2 feet up to whatever. Had a great session at big groyne Kirra on it earlier in the year.

I really like this one, it's all I ride now unless I am on my 666.

If they can get it to Surf Suplies in Osborne Park over here I can take it to Lancelin as I go up there all the time.

The white one is 7'2 x 21.5 x 2 5/8, but the rails are pretty low profile. Hate chunky rails, I'm too light for that.

Can we start a movie called

"Single Fin Green"

?
Send it down to me, and I'll surf it at Bells, Winki, and then The Maldives. Then I'll send it over to Doggie. Is that OK?

PS - get a green fin for it!!

Maybe it should stop off at mine on the way through Simondo? We have some fun waves around here for it. I imagine one would have a ball on it on along right hand point break.....I need to come down to Vico for some action as soon as the water temp warms up a bit

That's a cool idea. I think I'd have to make another one though, this one is far too precious to me..... I would like to remake it now from a bit lighter blank, I have learnt a whole lot more about the design program now as well. V2 will be insane of this one.

We could all do a review and use artline pen on the nose then when you get it back take a pic and post it for all too see
And anyone who has ridden it must get a pic taken with it and riding it

Brings back memories of my first ever board. Once you start on single fins I reckon you never change your style.

I know that it can be done post production but the other way you could do it would be to use the photographers trick of levitation
