Have seen several near-new Chumbo Flatdecks for sale. Do they only really perform under the feet of "Pro" level surfers? Would be great to see a design article & review on these future-istic boards

Whoever owns this board is a dockhead, a pub in NewY was being renovated and offered 11,500(the original price was 14000)...owner knocked it back.So the 11,500 was the price for quite a while.Ive inspected the board, its ordinary apart from the fame of being the one MR rode in the advert...Around that time TOOhees were paying 25K(gregNorman and someone else got the same) for appearance money....DavidBowie worked for nothing!Halfway through his openAir Sydneee concert ,he said I've learnt a new song since being in Australia.He pulled out a longneck, took a swig and then sung the first line.EVERYBODY laughed and CHEERED!

Cheers, comes my way too.
just be gently flexy re time, and let him bend yer ear a bit..
@seeds put me onto him. are you culling?
Yes, moving one on. The replacement is in the works so to speak. I realized I have his number already and he has been pretty good at communicating so far. Your link is to a newer website, helpful. Thanks.
don't miss your chance for a follow-up in the raffle @blackers.. imagine a world where your dream board gets moved on after a dozen surfs, 'cause you won a chance to *slightly* tweak it? woof.. (don't let the i-d benevolent brains win it!)

Couldn’t speak more highly of him and his business. A great guy. AW

Thank you @stu, hoping it was a singlefin, looks like a great board to charge the big wave reefs up there
Could easily be a Single Fin

Indeed it could be, I once had a 7’6” thruster and a 7’4” single beautifully shaped by Dick, very similar profiles from the same “classic” templates, oddly the 7’4” custom had more rocker of the two but was surfed joyfully for years while the 7’6” purchased online from a shop in Byron was under foamed for my 95kgs and regrettably moved on. As with all genuine hand shaped boards no two are identical. My interest here was about getting a wall hanger to remind of the 7’4”. Let the one for sale rip at Burleigh or Lennox, cheers
