Custom kite boards?
If anyone is interest in custom kite boards, I came across this companys site
In FL that make custom boards I emailed and it’s $500 but that price isn’t going To last for long. http://www.waterboards.net/index.html |

I used to be into custom stuff- but unless you wnat something unique, why not get a pop-out from Colin McCulloch (Protoy $538) or Jimmy Lewis ( for similar) and get a tried and true board?
Custom boards are sketchy- if you nail it they are great but most guys (me included) don't know enough to know what they want. That said the best windsurfer I ever had was a Dave Mel (Sailboards Maui) custom. Bullseye. |

I agree, if you don’t know the company and ridden one of the boards you are taking a gamble, but, it would be nice to have a board that is more personal and one of a kind,
You know what graphic I would put on my board.;-) |

Your board is a bit trashed anyway, right?
Take all the hardware off and get it to a graphics company. They can put a transfer (like a t-shirt) or even airbrush Lux Luthor on the bottom if you like. Just seal it with a good clearcoat afterwards and yer in biznizz. |

That 132 lab rat indeed is a gonna, but I love that thing
Wish I took better care of it ,but! Oh well, it’s spilled milk.I have that 128 Cab Custom but I’m not use to riding wide boards so it’s Kind of weird when I do , but! what do i expect to happen When i've been riding one type of board for years. I have that Cab Lab rat 142 , I was wondering if it was possible to cut it Down to make a 120? Buying that 120 Protoy is something that I think of a lot (every time I go riding) but when I look at all the boards I’m accumulating(5) It would be crazy for me to get another If I can get rid of those things I’ll be ringing up Balloon Boy phone to order that 120 Protoy. |
