New Red Baron model





New board made for team member Cabrito. Board # 15,297. Just had its maiden voyage in Mainland point break for 8 days of bliss. Nine foot Red Baron model. This board has lots of rocker and generous kick in the nose and the tail. More so than the average LB. This is not your Grampa Earl's longboard. 17.8" x 22.5" x 14" with 2+1 setup with FCS GX's and Cowboy Dan's redwood/balsa 7" fin.
Found this old ad from a 1998 Longboard Magazine section..."Dyno hybrid that noserides like a banshee, can turn on a dime and gets real vertical. Try it. You'll like it."
12 years later and it still holds true.
Glassed by our good compadres at Diamond Glassing with 5 oz. and a acrylic/scuff finish.
