the Predator

We needed a traditional pintail a while back, so the Predator was enlisted. The original model hangs in my barn. It is a traditional shape with a “soft” bottom and up-rails in the tail. It worked great. It’s a noserider, but was a bit slow for the guy who rides a progressive nine footer. The next generation Predator got lower rails and a hard edge in the tail – wow, what a difference. That speeds up the game to match play and can keep up with any beachbreak or pointbreak. I’m 5’-10” and 165 lbs., so mine is 2-3/4” thick. You can thicken as needed. dm

New Orange 6'-8"

This is Dave Berman's new ride. This stick is what I came up with when Dave mentioned that he was interested in one of those minis with two fins glued on the tailblock. I asked him if he had tried one. Naturally his response was "not really". This is a great example of Alex Villalobos' work in the laminating arena. He is smokin' hot with abstracts and swirls. We're so lucky to have him with Diamond Glassing. Dave waxed-up his new 6'8" winger and proceeded to out-paddle the Janitors @ Cardiff for ankle slappers. Great testimony from a guy who regularly rides a 7'10". dm out for now
