I think it was like 680 and 5 weeks. I wanted the hydroflex tech, otherwise I would have gotten one off the shelf at a local shop. You can also get it in the hydroflex supercharged tech which allows you to adjust the flex characteristics of the board.
Cool dude. So now I'm curious. What's hydroflex tech???Quote:

The dumpater diver name is because Dwayne pulled the foam for the original board out of the dumpater t Al's shop.Quote:

I'm into speed surfing, rapid turns And the most dramatic angles I can manage and if it presents itself an air here and there. So while I love my quad fish at certain spots, when I'm trying to cruise and be mellow, but the disco board lets u rip apart a waist to chest high wave like your at trestles on a head high day.
My post in this forum from last week has more details, photos and feedback on fins etc that worked for me. Hope this info helps.
Auto correct on the iPhone seems to dislike Dayne and keep renaming him Dwayne... Damn technology
or Dane......... whatever works
i got a fat thruster 'small wave' board a few years back and as i've gotten more comfortable with it, i've taken it out on bigger and better days. i love the extra paddle power and float and once i got used to the fuller rails and flatter rocker i rarely touch my regular shortboards anymore. i tend to size these boards more like a regular shortboard rather than 6-8 inches under like recommended. ymmv..Quote:
