Hey guys,

Wondering if the breezers could help me out and keep an eye out for a McCoy nugget in the 7.10 to 8.2 range. I have my searches saved on GT and eBay but if everyone could keep an eye in your local shops that woukd be swell.

Yours Truly,
McHenry

Have you called the factory at Byron? they may have one or the shop in town it was called Bay Action,I could be wrong with this advice.

Thanks Mac,
Looking for a used one as i can't afford new. As most breezers live around the surf (i dont) i thought someone may spot a used one at a local shop

Mate what I was saying is often a return buyer will trade a board in so the second hand board your chasing may well be in store or put your name down for one,I've heard this work for others,just more crap advice

Yeah no worries. Will ask them. They are hard to come by as most people who have them love them and ride them until they are trashed.

Cheers for the advice.

They seem to go well in S A waves are our waves are fat and gutless. The wide tail picks up the wave nicely and they are really fast. Lots of volume also helps down here. They are also just built really well with nice strong glass jobs etc so they last a long time. Horses for courses i guess

they are good for older peeps who want to stay short....or we have some young blokes up here that use them as wave staling machines...

also i will go the opposite of mchenry,they seem to love when waves get big and hollow,...now work that sh1t out.

they are also so very user friendly...back foot only surfing,never have to adjust weight

Chrispy nailed it,
I nearly bought an astrodot awhile back, they look like a lot of fun.

I reckon that what you here a lot about Mccoys, easy to paddle and fun to ride.

Yep super fun boards and built to last - but not good if you going for a world title


Hey McHenry there are a couple of shorter versions in Manly / Narrabeen at the moment if you want me to look at them for you. Given you are such a light weight I think a 6'6" would be heaps of board for you. The big 7 footers are huge. And I mean huge in the volume department.

Im no light weight, im 85kgs.

The volume is needed as i have no fitness, very little skill and dont get to go surfing nearly as much as I'd like as i have the lil one.

The nuggets are awesome boards. They deserve a bigger audience than they have. Poor Geoff was a little too acerbic at times me thinks.

Hope you get what you want. I'll keep an eye out too, but most of the ones I see here are the popout epoxies.
