Hi ,had a disaster boxing day while travelling near Berry heading down south coast of NSW .My absolute go to favourite board a 2013 .9ft,10 hokua came out of my lock rack and flying off the car .I didn't realise until I'd got to Nowra, by the time I turned around someone had picked it up .
If anyone knows or has the board I would love to get it back and would happily give a reward for its return or if anyone has one for sale please let me know .Thanks Brad

Which one DJ? The x32 or the 29.5 width swallow tail?

Thanks everyone all good ideas,
the lock rack arm (front r/h side )came out because I didn't keep pin /locking arrangement lubricated and free .I 've been rather busy of late and was rushing to get packed and down the coast for family holiday..In my haste I didnt check locking pin hadn't extended into hole position leaving arm to work it's way open allowing board to lift and bend rear arms eventually flying from car. All my own fault and If I can offer any advice spray a little wd40 around pin and keep it free.
