Re: retro

Nooooooooooooooo!

I saw a nice retro on there the other day going for about £130...

Makes me wonder what you could get for a home made job? emoticon

Weird though, the guy up this way that shapes boards is called Dave Gale - that board has Gale on the bottom dont it? ;;wv

Re: retro

Re: retro

I was with Kookie when he bought it and I want one now. Proper board envy. A little bigger cos his sinks like a ****ing stone when I put my 13 on it so I think I might go as big as a fish should be 6'4" maybe?

trying to restrain myself tho.

Inah - You had boards from him> Good yes?

Re: retro

Brock - forget the size shape and everything! Talk to Andy at Tunnel vision and ask if you can speak to Mac...

Take your old board along and tell him whats up and what you want the new one to do etc...

He'll then give you good advice (not the sales cr@p the guys in the shop give you!)...the shaping shack used to be upstairs but its moved now...

All my boards Ive got through them have been corkers but Ive also heard of some dogs! Thats why Mac is the man - he wont flog cr@p with his name on it! emoticon
