No.6 Bodyboards

Hi

Does anyone own or ride a No.6 board, Ive found them on the internet recently and they look like really sick boards, chatted to some guys in the states and they say they have quite a core following and are pretty sick boards.

Is they anyone that brings them into SA or is planning to in the near future? Or are there some shops that stock them already?

If anyone has ever ridden please let me know what its like - looking at ordering 1 over the net.

Cheers

Hey there,

Seeing as you are shopping around for new boards, I just bought a new BZ 42" hubb and have riden her like 3 times but the board is just insane, but just to small for me when the surf gets over 6ft... I am 90 Kgs and the board would suit a rider 75 kgs or lighter, so If you or anyone else is keen, I am willing to part with the hubb for R 950

The BZ Hubb 42" is Red with a White Slick.
Contact Peter on 083 313 6106 or PM or Mail me if you are keen.

Ja i was gonna get a custom 1 made but then it turned out pretty expensive so I chose the MS 1 instead! It seems pretty santanistic aswell, looking at the symbols and shit. Weird!

Mike - I see you picked the board up from us at http://www.factory7.co.za --- thanks for the support bru ... haven't ridden the MS1 myself so I'd be interested to know how it goes. Maybe if you're keen to share - you should review it at Factory 7 and it will help out other guys thinking of buying.

Shot!

MS 1 is the sickest board. you should see Justin Hoeben hitting the sections with that baby. Try it out kicks the bat tails ass.

For the no.6 Alan Zondagh was going to bring them in but in the end they are charging to much so it not worth it.

So go for the Science and suport the companies in SA, if possible, the Ozzies don't need our money.

Just for the record, NO.6 is a American board company, not Australian.

Same thing. Mike Stewart is American and boards made in Bali...

Thanks, good to know - we get it out as fast as we can but a lot of credit to the Post Office ... they do do a good job and we've only had one mishap with an order through them.
