I couldn't do that colour, at this point in my life it just reminds me of a dirty nappy.
Thats the reply I was after many thanks SP.

Ok I need some voting on this one excluding manufacturer do you like?
Go with the scheme and manufacturer. Just saying.
Didn't know you had surfed his boards v. What did you like about it?

906 Whalebone
Nice ![]()
How does the Whalebone compare to the Macca ![]()
Mick first ride today can't really compare too early but impressed reminds me of my 1st board off Steve 5 years ago tho I was 10 kgs lighter we have been fine tuning every board since and feel good on this board being no 12 ![]()
Sounds like it went well for a 1st run then...."12" wow lol
I'm looking forward to owning one again, keen to try a macca model though ![]()
Mick this might sound crazy but i'm no expert and i cant tell the difference but they ride amazingly for me,go for the macca model spice it up a bit thats why i went back to the Whalebone also the Whalebone has less rocker which i wanted.Good luck![]()
Whalebone has plenty of overall curvature for my local waves (fat reefies). I surf shortboards on the beachies unless swell is real low...but yeah, keen as to try the macca. For me it all depends what is available on the second hand market at the time I'm chasing a new board. Until I bought the Tollhurst 2 weeks ago, the most I'd ever paid for a surfboard was $600...its now $750. Was also keen on a Boyd Purdy, but didn't wanna drive to the city. They're another board on the want list...missus would divorce me if I went out & paid retail prices for the boards I buy.
So ya saying main diff is the macca has more rocker, which makes a lot of diff & I suspect might be better suited to the East. Thats good to know...I've never compared the boards side by side enough to notice. My eyes are drawn to the funky tail...but since you say macca's have more rocker, I probably would prefer whalebones. Shorter for bigger waves & longer for smaller...I'll try a macca one day though...cheers ![]()

Never have, don't know a thing about them, just trying to encourage a bloke to diversify, if he's even got the slightest interest in looking at another brand let's encourage him. ![]()

Delusional is a term Chrispy would use, please reframe from second hand terms and come up with original material.
