2025 LIMITED EDITION FLAX SERIES
Hi Jim.  Just thought I'd get in contact with you in regards to the board you did for me...

Report said about 4ft and offshore... I showed up and boy was it wrong... easily double overhead...

Anyway, only had yours with me... holy crap does it go!

Your description of the what the board can do is spot on... fast, drivey, heaps of hold... it blew me away how good it was. Even backside lol.

You have done a fantastic job with this board and you now have a customer for as long as i can surf for.

Thanks so much! Cheers Mick

THE BUILD
Our Flax builds are 2 layers of 4oz on the bottom, 3 layers of 4oz on the deck with a carbon rod inset into the deck that's laminated underneath a strip of carbon tape. They're strong as!
PERFORMANCE
Our epoxy flax boards don't feel like typical eps. They have none of that chattery, corky, over bouyant feeling of typical eps boards while the carbon rod gives them just the right amount of flex and spring.

They feel more like a more alive and more responsive PU type board and they are definitely faster in the water than PU boards.

They're pretty much all I ride these days, even when its double to triple overhead.
I love the lively response that i get from the flaxes that makes my PU boards now feel a bit sleepy and sluggish.
DURABILITY
These boards are extremely durable The decks hold up really well and the boards are very difficult to ding, and seemingly almost impossible to break. These boards are going to be looking good and be around for a long time.
THE LOOK
Our flax builds look really sharp with their black rails and white pinstripe on the deck set against the natural flax fibre. To learn more about our flax builds check our Tech Talk page here....
Flax Fibre EPS
SAVE $250
Our Limited Edition Series boards offer great value because you can order a custom dims shape for the same price as a regular stock dims board and so you save $250 on our usual custom design fee to create a unique one off custom dims file.
DELIVERY
The price includes delivery to Auckland for late February. For those of you outside of Auckland we are organising NZ wide shipping. At this point it's looking like it's going to be around $60 a board.
