Identify my Rip Curl board please

Postby beachmike2 » Tue Jul 20, 2021 1:56 pm

Can anyone tell me more about this board.
It is apparently made by Rip Curl (there is a yellow logo on top.... something like «corbel»? really hard to read.

It has never been used and I would like to know if it's rare?

Is that the same board you posted before? Put up a picture of the hard to read label, at the moment it is only a brown timber laminated Rip Curl board, probably for a promotional gig! :lol:

I don‘t think the price would have changed since you first posted it. Hope the floods in Switzerland didn‘t harm you! :D

You could also email Rip Curl ,Australia they would know!

Wow, this was 4 years ago and I couldn't find my old post. You remembered my post from 4 years ago - really?! I guess you don't do too much weed:-)

I will try and make new pictures. I was mostly wondering about this "corbel?" logo. Looks like an event or special product line?

I was not affected by the floods, thank you for asking. I live in the mountains - just some avalanches one in a while but usually no foods:-)

Basically it's a Surftech "Woodie". Here is one that was sold in Japan. Sorry I don't know the price it went for.

Yes, that is exactly the board I have in my basement. Thank you!

I lived in Australia for a while, I surfed a bit there (or at least tried to :D)
I also surfed in rivers here in switzerland. Yes there's a new surf pool called ALAYA BAY but I haven't checked it out yet.
Some of my friends went there and they told me it as awesome.

Small world:-) I thought the guys giving advice here are from Australia, New Zealand, Bali etc. like where you expect the experts to be found. Wir hätten auch in deutsch kommunizieren können:)

I am an ancient Aussie surfer, surfed Hawaii lots of Pacific islands, New Zealand and many times in lots of parts of Indonesia.
Not an expert other than doing it since 1958.
ich wohnen jetzt ganzen im Ober Österreich. Es ist unglaublich ich habe Deutsch in die Schule gelernt, in die letzten Jahr hundert!
Aber es ist etwas wacklig
Manchmal nach Covid , Atlantik Ozean.! :lol:
