Hi there all. Picked up a 2nd hand caveman board at an op-shop the other day (really cheap and did not know what it was doing there). Board is in good nick but does not have volume marked on it. Dimensions are 267(l) x 56(w) x 35(?). Does anyone have an idea on the volume? I picked it up cause I am looking for a smaller board for Nelson Bay summer (currently on 135L bic techno). If too small will sell but would like to find out before the NE winds set in for summer.

Cheers

Yeah thought it would be about 90. Thanks for the info. Will hang onto it for a time when I am a little better at the sport, and look out for a 110L board in the mean time.

I used to have one of those, well made but think the maker has now passed away?

Yep Andrew passed away before his time about 18 months ago? My first & 2nd waveboards were Cavemen..

Yeah someone told me that he had passed away - very sad. Has his name on the tail of the board. My name is Andrew too so maybe fate that the board started its life with and Andrew and hopefully will finish its life with one also. I got the board, a 5.6 sailworks synchro pro, 70% carbon mast and a boom all for $190. All in good condition and an absolute bargain so will hang onto it.

Thanks all for the responses

Wow - 70% carbon mast & the rest for that price is a good deal.
