Its a link to my own site, and i know i want to try a stretch, its either that or the rusty Pro-ject 6'3'', Bushman 6'4 Squash.

This babe looks like it needs some research!

What is the advantage of the batwing tail?

by **tomcat360** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 1:17 am

Dayyymmmmnnnnn that things wide in the tail!!!!

Got the dimensions? And are those just yellow pigmented FCS plugs or some other system?

by **retrofish** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 6:58 am

it's one of them tuf-lite technology boards so they only cut out the fin slots, so as not to expose the whole of the plug, saqme with the leash plug! interestin board northswell, bit pricey though. you tried henty surfboards? Rich there will shape you what ever you want and would probably be a bit cheaper. I know that they do quads and are very heplful in getting a board that is suited to you.

Nice board. Its a bit like the Bourton Batfish which is my next board. Main difference is that I'm getting the Bourton for £100 cheaper than that board. http://www.basesurfboards.com/bourton-bat-hybrid.htm

It also comes in blue.

MID: 19.50" 49.53 cm
TAIL: 15.00" 38.10 cm

Its supposed to ride a bit fishy but more responsive and able to handle bigger waves.

That's my favorite board. I think I'm going to go into a surf shop one day and trace the outline and take dimensions to shape my own.
