roger cooper boards

[surfscream]

Hi all,

(posted this on another forum to little reply, was hoping for a bit more here, especially with any info on roger cooper boards thanks)

Was just wondering are the mini mals roger cooper sells on ebay worth the hassle?!

3 times ive been outbid on the 7'6 in the dying hours! i know the nature of the beast with ebay but going from 4 bid history to 15 in 2hrs is steep!

RANT! RANT! RANT!

So what im asking really is does anyone recommend these boards or should i just buy a board straight from a shop and save some heart ache but loose a good deal?


Cheers Fish

I have surfed some of his longboards when I was living on the Gower and they are good fun, I had no complaints.

i got a roger cooper board off ebay and think it was a fantastic deal and the communication i received was really good down to letting me know the exact day it was going to be sent !the boards are well worth the money even if you buy them from the shop so at ebay prices they are really good.look at how much other ones have gone for and bid around that mark then keep your eye on it as they are popular boards and do sell easily .good luck

Heard really positive things about the boards but exactly the same thing happened to me! Outbid in the dying minutes over and over and over. Gave up in the end and gave my money to my local family run surf shop....

Learnt to surf properly on my 9'2, it's been a good board, and good value for money.
Plenty of other options out there if you are struggling to win one. Buy one second hand save the money.
