Well as the wind drops ,and the big one gets another wash ,and the small one is still waiting to be launched ,I thought I'd lay them out and compare ...
to my surprise the 2 on the left look similar in size ...but not to be...once on the water ..
100 litre slalom Exocet ,115 SL and 140 freerace patriks
So stoked with my collection ..of slalom boards ..even though still waiting to try my new 100 litre .
they are not real resent boards ,2014-2015 2x left and 2016 .right
but good enough for me .
Keep sending photos of your collections . It would also be interesting to know how many boards people can accumulate, I got 7 and used them all this year , will have to take them all out for a group photo.
Now that's a nice lawn ..
boards look pretty Smik too ...I bet they are nice in the chop .
10 litres apart .perfect .but do you have a bigger one ?
Cripes I haven't got a big enough shed for my 8 boards.. Definitely need another for 14!
I think BSN 101 wins..
Cripes if you're criticising those lawns I better not show you mine.. After a dry summer I'm happy to have green even if it's bindies..
I've got 12 boards, about half of them retired, too lazy to gather them for a pic, but I do have my retired fin bin (aka fire wood shed) that's easy to take photos of. These are just the retired fins, I probably have about another dozen, still in use, that haven't made the fin bin yet. A few of these, the really odd ones, I found or were given to me. Some of these go back to the early 80's.
Wow excellent to see the passion out there
But boy you guys must be a confused bunch, in some places the wind forecast changes from morning to lunch to the arvo, which board do you take must do your head in.
If you choose the wrong board are you upset after the session
So how many boards do you actually take to the beach if you have so how many.
anyway good to see the photos out there
Kind Regards
