Slash N Burn teaser

In search of the ultimate all rounder comes a new board model we have been working on, 'Slash N Burn'. The prototype of this model made for team guy Jay Phillips, sat neglected in at the factory for about a month before he finally picked it up and got it under foot, afterwards stating he couldn't get off the thing! Featuring high speed and manoeuvrability is all you need to know for now... After all, this is only the teaser.

In the making: Coloured Resin

A few pics of some resin tints in the making... you'd be surprised at how much extra work goes into coloured resin boards, but well worth the results in the end.

In the making: Rat and Snake

A little time lapse clip of Matty Neilsen decorating his new foam. Funny thing is he hates rats and snakes! New boards include a Garage gem and a  new model we've been testing called 'Slash N Burn'.
Enjoy...

Garage Gem days

There's been some perfect days to break out the Garage Gem on the Gold Coast lately. Matt Neilsen sent through these shots with some feedback on his board..."I have been riding my GG a lot. I've had so many good sessions on that model. You can just get it so tight in the pocket on your turns, and then i guess that tail rocker and V combination just releases so good out of the top."

Matty rides his Garage Gem at 5'10"x19 3/4"x 2 3/8" which is 4' shorter and 3/4" wider than his standard shortboard.
