Well, I’ve ridden my new board three times now since I picked it up from Bob Miller last Sunday and I’m extremely happy with the outcome. I’ve always found it funny when someone gets a new board and when asked how it rides, their response is a quick, “This board is bitchin’ man,” or something along those lines. I’ve only came across a couple of people who didn’t like their new boards. I’ve owned a Mandala Quad, Doc semi gun and Pearson Arrow longboard all of which I hated. Nothing against the shapes or shapers, I just didn’t connect with the boards. That’s what got me making my on equipment, I knew what I wanted and how I wanted it to surf. As with this board, most people thought I was nuts have this D fin glassed onto it including BM but he did it for me anyways, and I’m glad he did. The best part about having this board made, besides the fact of getting a new board, is getting it exactly how I wanted it. I’m still amazed and surprised that BM shaped this beast exactly how I envisioned it and all he had to work from was a crappy little sketch that I gave him. It surfs completely opposite of my pig shape and that’s what I need in my limited quiver. I guess it’s the anti-pig. It handles the medium size surf (so far only head high) with grace. It packs a whole shit load of speed when in trim and the turns are drawn out and smooth. This board is bitchin’ man! -MR
