ok since bert has vanished i thought it woul be nice to see a few sunovas
pics if posible
ride report would be good
so lets see a few
huie
Mine should be here by march.I know that some guys that post on realsurf .com have some ride reports.
hi, here are two sunovas that i own , the one on the left is 6ft 6 ins x 19 1/4 ,the other is too small for me at 6ft 2 1/2 x 18 1/2 ,
the 6 6 i have used for about 3 years in between other boards i own as well , the sunovas are still the best boards i have seen in terms of construction , light , strong, good to look at , both are around 8-9 years old still with out any deck dents,
performance wise ,its all a bit subjective, the 6 6 isnt the best board i have ever owned but i goes good enough ,it could be my performance that lets it down, i still feel a thrill every time i pick it up and it has/nt deteriated at all in the 3 years i have had it,
the 6 2 , i came across a lad from berts town here in newaquay who sold it to me, my youngest son has yet to use it ,but will give a ride report when he does,
both boards are stiff , maybe built before bert had his flex quantyfied, overall they are still gems among boards , pete
how thick?
hi, the 6 6 is 2 3/8 and the 6 2 is 2 1/4, pete
huie: what happened to burt? sorry i havent been here in a while… has he just not posted in a while? or has he actually disappeared?

bert is not even lurking, at least, not under his user name, you can check that in the user statistics.
from memory he last visited sways august 2007.
I read he got investment from one of australias biggest millionaires, so he should be busy!
i think he just got set for life.
he must have invested a ton or more for equipment, cnc milling and some basic ingredient stock, and then some more for personnel and so on… so he should be working till he dies or retires.
I dont understand why he doesnt use his website better if such money is involved.
Does anybody in australie know whether he finally advertises? you should if you want to sell something.
would be great to have him back!
Just wait i reckon. Meanwhile trying to figure out how to get my balsa to be nearly axe proof…
hey wout
iknow the crowds are bad but surfing whith an axe hEEEEE its a thought
huie
if i remember right
thailand was in the picture somewhere back
hard to waste time online when you’re traveling feral…
good for him, he deserves it…
I told Bert if I see him on Swaylocks one more time when we have boards to make, I’d wallop his Bollocks.
And I AM as scary as that!
Anyway, I’ll show you some of my Sunovas…
Josh
looking good josh
keep us upto date
for a while ther i thought he might have got involved whith the fatman (again) hee eee
huie
Who is the Fatman?
ask bert
i would love to have a chat about that guy
huie
The thing i love the most about sunovas and parabolic boards with air valves is when you go through turns or give the board a little pump it goes "rmMMMM chsshh rrrmmmMMMMM chshh rrrrRRRRMMM chssshhh…as it flexes.
Jokes.
Hmmm…You’re talking about fat Ray right? The geezer with the cheesy Barracuda label?
I already heard…
yea josh its all a big learning curve
