Ideal volume/size for me would by about 5 9 x 19 1/4 x 2 1/4
Would this be available custom to the UK?
Thanks to anyone who answered privately but I have conflicting answers from a UK shop so checking here also.
Also I am interested if the file gets run past Matt Biolos? If I order a custom pu/pe board from Laminations for when the Lost shapers visit UK to finish boards I understand that Matt sends over an appropriate file for the board to be cut on Aku.

I would also be interested in the answer to this as would like a wider nosed mini driver in 6'5" or 6'6", otherwise will probally look at another custom. (prefer firewire construction) Not sure if a custom dominator could be similar?

I'm with you on this... I'm really interested in this board, but the 5'10 is too full, and the 5'8 isn't quite enough. The specs you listed would be spot on for what I'm looking for too.

I'm not the official word on this by any means but I'm pretty certain that there won't be any custom orders on the Mini Driver available and probably not any of the other Mayhem shapes either.
What's your weight by the way? I just got my hands on a 510 and although it carries a bit of foam up the front it definitely doesn't feel like it's going to inhibit performance, only increase it's versatility. I'm 165-170lbs though.

Thanks for the reply. I gave up coming here due to lack of response. I thought there would be a bit more interaction with the people involved in the Custom program as suggested here
Hey Folks, here is your chance to chat with the Bruce Pettibone, the man behind the CBD platform. He has questions, you have questions, why not talk about it?
I am 155lb and like boards around 26 litres.
Boardshop told me back in August I could get a custom Lost mini driver.

Hmm could be a misunderstanding. You could get a custom poly through Laminations in St Agnes which would be sent on to Boardshop. The only Firewire boards available as customs are in the CBD program. More models are slowly being added to the program, but I don't see the Lost shapes making it onto there. I imagine it'll be Firewire's own models as a priority.
I reckon the 508 could work for you but it is a bit of a gamble. I'm not sure if more sizes will be added next year to fill in the gaps, I reckon the 509 and 511 would be popular ones.

Was also told would be a £100 premium for a custom. Ha Ha if they misunderstood my questions about custom Lost Firewire and want £100 extra on the retail price for a custom poly Lost taking the price up to nearly £599 . Surely not!
I nearly ordered a Custom Poly Lost Mini Driver to be finished by Bulkley on his last trip but went for a custom Bulkley Hipster Quad instead. .

Hmm not sure then. Try and put the order through and see what happens! :D
