Calling all Airush Compact owners...

[the_lone_wolf]

Hi All,

 

Anyone out there who owns a compact and a digital camera could you possibly get in touch, i used a board on sunday which was a colin mc'cullah (sp?) custom, the guy who owned it said airush produced the same shape in one of their boards with a large "nut" in the middle of the board, i'm assuming it's the compact:

if you could get some pictures of the board, pref including one showing the rocker, and one showing the concave i'd be really grateful, this board was pretty much perfect with the SPEEDs and i'm looking at buying one but would like to check it's the right one first:)

i don't have one but fyi he's colin mcculloch - http://www.lostcauseboards.com/

i have/do own several of colins boards. i have ridden/owned all of the compact range over the years.if you think the compact was good wait till you try one of colins later shapes,the compact design is 2/3 years old and as stiff as a plank. where are you based?

@gillstah: yeah thats him, met him at the beach once, but this was a custom design, and certainly isn't like any of the pnes under "boards" on his site:(

 

airforce: i'm on the isle of wight, the stiffness was a good thing for me, i found it easy enough to ride in chop and because the board didn't flex and slow down i was able to keep the kite under power and go very fast easily, which is how th SPEED flys best...

 

i really need to start testing some new boards, my SX141 has served me well but it's old, scarred and the footstraps fall off:p

did you give Jon at STORMriders a call?

 

I was in there yesterday and he has one in. I think it is a second hand one but he has a SALE on at the mo so could be worth a chat with him.

 

hope you find one although check out the new 06 Airush range www.airush.com
