My New Funboard..

Postby Laguna » Sun Nov 06, 2005 7:06 pm

My new Billabong Funboard I got this week.
6’10” x 20-1/4” x 2-5/8”.

What I dont get is that the one shown online and in magazines doesnt have the orange flowers in the corners

What do you all think?

do you think that maybe the orange flowers have been put on mine because its a custom board so they all wont be exactly the same design?

How much did you pay for that?
Your Local shaper can get you your next board for about half what you paid...
This board by Phase One Surfboards goes for $400 locally

well they said it was £420 first of all, and I said ive seen it cheaper in a different shop for like £379 and they were insisting that it was a different board I had seen. So when I bought the billabong gold wetsuit for £250 off them they said they could give me a discount on the board so I got the board for £350 then which wasnt too bad I think.

I spose I should have talked to a local shaper, thanks for the advice

£350 for a new funboard isn't bad in the UK.

You could always check out this link:

I hope you got it, but if not, the link isn't real - it says:

www. blatant plug for my own surfboards, go on, buy one, you know you want to .com
