Why would I try and sell such an ugly looking board to begin with? It has no wow appeal no quantifiable performance records no pro endorsment it costs over US$20 per inch, sheesh it would be damn difficult job got to say that. No Swaylokians Im only sharing as much information as Im directed to do, keep you all thinking and have a laugh at the sqabbles from the seagulls… Give me a fulcrum, a lever and totaly cool place to stand and I will move the Earth and the moon and stop their rotation. PS thats just an opinion… PPS please read and reread threads as it seem some of you are assuming many things without fully reading explanations and replys… PPPS If I annoy you turn off the TV… PPPPS Mike will set me straight if I stray from the program…hes probably just as sick of me as the rest of you but still has the decency to let a Fella express their opinion…Many thanks MIKE [smile] PPPPPS I am the Real T.E. or am I ? http://www.geocities.com/wunderboyi/ninetysixpercent.html
Send a F. P. to Southern Calif. so we can put it to the test!! If it works as well as we are being told, it will sell itself!! I vote for Herb Spitzer as the Swaylock test pilot. Roger
Id like to try one if you’re willing to get it to me. Contact me to see how we could work it. Id probably be willing to pay shipping one way if you’d bite off the other way. Id never point at something and rank it based on appearance only. “Function over form” unless your just going to hang it on the wall.
has any one told you yhat your shoe is untied? …ambrose…in a conspiritorial tone
Hey you guys are OK…It would be my pleasure to send boards to everyone that asked, if they could try it…Im just not in that positon although it would be intersting to see Herb doing a roundhouse cutty! Im battling away at some footage dont worry…Although there is a board being tested in North Florida I still havent heard the results after a decent wave…They tried it in 2’ slop and where mildy surprised…I suppose I can tell who it is as they are going to post their findings at Fluidgroove. Jim Dunlop has built it and as far as I know hes giving me the results… His initial honest feedback about problems…he couldnt get a roundhouse cutty smoothly he felt that it had to be done in sections, we replied get 1metre+ waves find the stall/drive point, and try to do it with weight shifting instead of forceing the board round. Let the lines in the board do their job. regards T.E. http://www.geocities.com/wunderboyi/ninetysixpercent.html
Jim Dunlop knows his stuff and he posts here every so often.I know him so I will try get him to give us the scoop.He just got back from ElSalvador or somewhere.
