i like ^^^
green thumbs from me .....
sweet looking big board + simple graphics look much better.
Good looking board for that size, sensible having a pin tail too, shouldn't bounce much in turns.
How much is something like that...?????
If you are going to get a custom board or build one, why do a 5 minute paint job, it's the first thing everyone see's. it's like buying a $500,000 sports car and getting a white one..
Thats my OES custom board, i only got it last week. You can blame me if you don't like the spray job and colour, the choice is mine.
The board is amazing to ride, I have only sailed it once in 10-12 knot side/onshore 2 foot waves.
It still fully floats me in a glassy lull, it has that same feeling like on a one design, you just stand there and it glides in the water. It feels pretty short but on the wave due to the length. I had a few waves on it but could really power down the line due to the wind direction but early indications are that this board will rip!
I cant wait to get it in side side/off wind direction and really give it a run.
With these new designed boards, I think there is a new trend developing. Wavesailing does not need strong wind, just for the wind in the right direction.
You dont need to have a 10 foot sup to wavesail in light winds......
This board is 233 long and I weigh 92kg....
If you get it sent through the post(too big) your allowed up to $1000 but if it's sent through freight companies anything over $250 you get slugged.
Looks good Scotty, I like the design you did.Pete did a good job
Cant wait to see my Nude 99L quad,It's going to be F****** Bright
Some people dont like things that are different ?
rode my nude chopper 90 last night - 6.0 Gator - 16 - 20 knot breeze.
safe to say its a
slayOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR !
Did 3 of the sickest turns i have ever done - on one of the biggest wave boards i have ever ridden. Might have to get an 80 as well.
Only problem is that it turns so well i cant get it to throw spray - yet.
Took a bit of tuning to get the board right though - mast foot all the way back so it sits off the nose entry rocker and on the slippery riding rocker. - This made a huge difference.
Ha Matt,
do you like your Nude over your Starboard
Is the chopper a twin or quad
Shes a twin. Still have a lot of learning to do with this board- it feels like a surfboard in the pocket of the wave.
Still love my Starboard kode 80 to death - especially in DTL lifter conditions
And for stupid jumps.
good to hear you like your chopper. i have a 90 on the way. got a quad option.
can't wait to get it!

what do you weigh in at, if you don't mind me asking?
sailed middleton overhead, silky smooth, xoff, 5-15kts last monday on 100 oes quad and 5.6 s1; great session (i'm 90kg). Real nice waves and never once thought "wish i could get on my small board" which is the test of any big board. Top to bottom performance, spot section and hit it with these new big wave boards & light rigs doubles time on water; agree with Scotty re new direction.
Be interesting to see how 112 goes- it has a faster bottom than my 100 which doesnt lack for speed on wave.
i reckon customs also represent great value- the carbon alone in a top end custom is more than the total production cost of many production boards as i understand; the end prices are similar, the delta being marketing, labor costs, distribution and less people taking a slice.
KOTP- have entered u in SUP race again.
That's a cool board for sure. But why do you state volume and let him figure out the dimensions? Do a lot of schlogging?
I have three boards from Moo Custom in the UK. My smallest waveboard is a quad 225x58,5 and I have no idea what the volume is. 80 maybe? We discussed what I wanted to use it for and decided on rocker, width and outline. The volume just tags along for the ride.
Volume is only in effect until you're planing. After that it's all shape and rails...
The biggest board, a quad 98 (227x64,5) is a different story. There, I want the volume for schlogging out in bad conds and the width for riding with a small sail.
I guess the shipping from the UK to you guys would be quite steep, but I can heartily recommend Jon a Moo. He has an uncanny ability of turning your comments on what you want in a board into reality.http://www.moocustom.co.ukhttp://www.moocustom.co.uk/gallery/
Rode my Angulo two weeks ago.
Was noticeably more direct than the evil twin but better suited my riding style.
Was worried about the strap being right on the tail but it worked and really ripped on the wave face. Much more of a surfy feel to it for sure.
Thrusters worked really well too, didnt skip out on a single bottom turn and got some nice feedback about the graphics.
One very happy windsurfer,,,,,although could do with some more wind.......
Great graphics, absolutely love it!!!
Nice to see a Swede promoting Slovenian products :D
Looks like a sick spot, Old Mate does some nice fwds.. But yeah, think a 90 freestyle board would be my weapon of choice out there, not a quad..
yer the graph's look pretty cool, gotta love Iron Maiden shame a black board would only last half hour in the W.A sun in summer. I got so many paint job ideas for black boards, Just made a surfboard and painted it black with the punisher skull on the bottom, looks sick.
Anyone what an Iron Maiden board painted? i'd be happy to do it...
