Mick Carabine´s boards are all very nice, this one being quite plain doesn’t appeal to everyone. It was shaped by Terry Bishop late 2004, one of the once lead shapers at G&S (check out the names of the original shaper of their classic models and he will be there) and Mick is one of the best glassier on the south-east coast of Australia (below Sydney). The competition is tough in just the Wollongong area having names such as Skipp and Byrne to compete with but for longboards or shale we say glass work alone he in my opinion is the best.

The completely natural colour differentiations between the Volan cut laps and deck patch is beautiful to see and is just not captured in the pictures. When you actually pick it up and look at the fine detail it is anything but plain. I sold my other boards before coming and was worried about bring it with me but it will now live out its life here. More information can be found on My Site.

Personally I wouldn’t mind a crack on The YATER…. The shape interests me as it is a nose rider model; where is the wide point on that board Driftingalong.

Oohh, really diggin the yater and the Infinity, I really like that nose concave.

Can't see your's right now grub, but I'm sure its a beaut.

Maybe today I'll take a picture of the board rack. Acutally, probably not, it's dumping snow right now and I'm setting up a kicker, wall ride, and down rail in my back yard :D

One day I'll take a pic.

Hey Tomcat, get some picture of your back garden setup!
I'd suggest the forum started a seasonal "snow topic/posting area", but I'm in fear of the "hardcore surfers" would tell me to f-off to a snowboarding forum - I don't have the time for two forums okay!?!

Anyhoo, here's my board before it got ruined with wax.

Will do, but don't expect to be too impressed! I'm currently shopping for some new pow/park skis right now, broken between the Line Chronics, K2 Public Enemies, and Line Mike Nick Pro's

I like your snowboarding idea, although they aren't a ton. Maybe we can do other board sports, and include snowboarding, skating (short and long), and skiing, wakeboarding, skimming, etc.

Hey Hawaii on your second board is that a nose protector or a wedge off the tip?

On the Infiniti Longboard what does the concave do for the board?

Can't be bothered re-uploading pics, so see my 6'6 here.

Also have a 7'8 mini mal, but it's having some structural fin repairs at the moment.

I have a hill to a degree, but not like a carve able hill. Just enough to get some speed to hit a kicker and then a rail.

By the way, today I purchased some Line Mike Nick 178's :D :D :D . Can't wait to get them in the pow.
