THE TUG BOAT...This is Brent Savage. He's a pretty good little surfer (rated 8th in the juniors last year) and we've been working together on boards over the last 4 or 5 years. This one we've been refining for the contest slop, 1 foot and under.....funny thing is that it goes remarkably well in the good stuff up to 4 feet. I tend to do all his grovel stuff....and this was a change of tack for what we've been doing lately after I lent him.....'the death sled'.... that belongs to my friend Nat. Brent is about 6'2" and weighs in at 80kg's and this board is 59 x 19 x 23/8, bump flyer...the wide point is 4 inches back from centre, flat deck and foily rails. The first couple were concave into a deep double feeding into a hefty vee out of the tail....the lastest has a concave out of the tail....this is the favourite for the moment.....Brent likes to garden and is fond of cute little kittens.
