Hi,

Do you have a 2011er Shinn Monk in stock (new/unused) or know if your dealer/kite store has one in stock?
Any size between 126cm to 130cm will be fine.
Thank you.

Cheers
Caesar

Yes Eppo, the board with the gorilla graphic. Unfortunately my one broke today (I lent it to a friend who landed on a wave) and now I'm on my last one.

lost mine about 1k off Pinnaroo back in Feb in mint condition. Has probably landed somewhere along the WA coast, Indonesia or India, so there out there

PS - has my name and number so if some kiters picked it up and has had some fun on it, cartons still on offer.

Yes sweet board!........my 2011 monk has been retired, it cracked and I got it replaced under warranty with a new Monk Forever. 2yr warranty on the Shinns
I think I prefer the 2011......I wouldnt mind getting my hands on another 2011 model myself.
The old one now sits in the garage overseeing my other boards looking rather sad and pissed off

One only 128 Monk 2 here in stock.
Not the Gorilla unfortunately - they are collectors items.
But it is the 2011/12.
Turned up in our stocktake ????
Could have sold it 10 times over but guess it has to go out as superseded special now

PM or ring me if ur keen - 0430 966 397

Thank you, I'm only interested in the Gorilla board. Their new Gorilla board is ok, but nothing beats the original gorilla/board combo.

Makes me wonder how many people would be interested to have one with the original gorilla and I would put a custom order in if we are 20 or 30? I'm sure there must be some interest in these boards (even if the price would exceed the usual RRP).

I have three 130x40- my one (which broke), my spare one and my girlfriend's board. With her 50Kg she can easily cope with a 126cm and I can easily cope with a 128cm.

Cheers

Hi,

No, I haven't been on a Monk Forever but would like to try one. The Shinn Toyboy is the same as the original Monk (the graphics are different, that's it).

Cheers

Hey Caesar - I bought a 2014 Forever last week and rode it at Corros WA yesterday and Monday. It is a work of art and every bit as good as the original (of which I have 3)... Do it - there is nothing like it...

Hi dunk,

Could you please check if it is the same shape, same stiffness/same flex and the same comfortable kiting as the original Monk?
Thanks mate.

Cheers
Caesar
