Help - need to find Surftech French Rocky ultraflx 5'8"

[Adelemarlin]

Aloha, I have a near impossible ask to get a very old board so I can bring it to a shaper to replicate. Does anyone out there or someone they know, have a Surftech Randall French Rocky, 5'8" they'd be willing to part with? I realize it is over 12 years old and hasn't been produced don't 2012.

Sincerely,
Adele

Hi and welcome Adele, but sadly I‘m not a bearer of good news.
Near impossible is pretty right, even if you got the board, the features of the Surftech construction may not be able to be done by a shaper.

The differences in the EPS versus PU foam makes different density and flex patterns along with the epoxy versus polyester resins.

I would look seriously at Randy Frenches current shapes at Surftech or other shapes similar to what you want in known brands.

This would also be dependent on which country you are looking to buy in!

Added edit, can you post a picture of your dear departed, then we can suggest possible replacements of similar construction,
some good news ( perhaps) there may be performance improvements in newer boards!
Good luck!

Found this

Ridiculous price for a board that old, but if it is the board you have something that can be shaped and found now that would be an improvement

Thank you so much for hunting and looking we saw that but not the right size- I just need an old one to replicate and take to the shaper. This is all I have for the departed!!

This is a tough question when you mentioned departed (Sorry) there are stats and widths in your post, and a picture of the profile with the bottom designs good shaper would be able to replicate that if it is memorial board and not for riding as your departed may have wished.
A suggestion would a vision of how you saw them standing proud and surfing be a good bottom design?
Delicate questions with full respect
