Hi,just saw my second only sunova board here in newquay,England, its on display in the quicksilver shop,
The serial no was 25## which puts it slightly newer than mine but about 9-10 years old ,no deck dents at all and it felt about 5-5 1/2 lb ,
It looked like a gracefull swan among a flock of seagulls ,it just looked so good .so much better than the rows of generic plain white boards that arn/t worth the bother of art work on them because of the limited life span ,
The owner of the board works in the shop but comes from west oz ,actually the town burt comes from,
I just wish it was sunova boards I was seeing rather than the firewires that have just started to arrive here , burt has put in the hard yards years ago and should have reaped the rewards from building boards as beautifull and strong as these,pete
hey i saw my first sunova this summer in ireland, out at inch. beautiful board with a very soulful surfer on it, from ireland but he’d lived in oz for ages!
hi Burnsie, i never asked whether it was for sale , i was speaking to the guy that it belonged to and he gave me the impression he was pretty stoked on it, it was a 6 ft 2 in board so was a bit small for me , pete
Bert actually can’t remember what shop it was that stocked Sunova in Newquay over ten years ago, because they went there through a Belgian distributor…
Now back in business, we would like to get into Cornwall at some stage.
