ok
** so i have decided to send a board made with the c d d blank as a compsand.**
for as many people to try as possible.
most likely it will be a 5’ 11’’ x 19 1/2’’ x 2 3/8’’ h p mod quad
i will post the build on here starting next week
it will leave the island&head to noosa from there it will go down to pete at currumbin&then on south
so if you want to let me know. we can organise its stay with you
** huieshapes@bigpond,com
**
better yet send it to NZ with my mates luggage , he be there in a week
Put me on the list to give it a go.
sounds like a great idea. it will be good to see what a good compsand is supposed to look and feel/flex like.
scot soon as it leaves pete it can go to you
**will stay in touch.
**
** no kiwis**
**to many sheep

funny u say that. snuck out the coast for some wave the other day. it was 4 to 5 ft offshore. no one out , perfect lefthanders. surferd for 3 hours with only my mate. wave for wave we were watching each other surf as we were paddling back out.
as the shadows go longer and you could look back up the cliff to watch the sun go down. anyway my mate he charges just about anything no matter how late. shallow or close to dry reef/rocks . no matter how big he will go it. so i was padling back out and saw him the spot, a little deep and late but i thought he was on. anyway he didnt catch it. and got a 4 footer on the side on his longboard . i thought he got under and was still out the back but in a few seconds i relized the wave picked him up and washed him through the reef. . held him under a fair while as well. anyway he paddled back out and iwas going “bro what happend to u” and he said he couldnt do anything cuz he was laughing so hard when the wave hit. " what" i said, and he pointed up the cliff and said " that goat had got one of your boots man" ( this was brand new boots i stole). this goat stole my boot and was running along the side of the cliff. also the place whereour stuff was just fully overgrown with scotchys and assorted prickley shit. my boot turned up in the end after a bit of a search
So Huie how is the travel board going?
Is it going to be similar to this one (from compsand.com)?
Just a quick question on how you get the bottom skin looking so clean at the the edge/join. Do you put the skin onto the blank before you tuck the bottom edge of the rails?
Cheers,
Scot
