Thread: Dan Mann's Shapes

  1. #21
    Good job fellas on offering the last two shapes, the Unibrow and the Chubby Chedda in 1 inch increments.

    I almost always fall inbetween when they are 2 inch increments, so I end up passing on a lot of Firewires I would have bought if the size and volume were closer to what I normally ride.

    Yeah PRJ! That was the one I was eyeing up. I think I might need to go ahead and put in my pre-order. Although the holidays haven't be kind to me. I'm up to 185lbs and the volume calculator has me at a minimum of 30Ls for my fat arse! I might have to consider the 5'10".

    Getting old and fat is no fun I tell you.

    Are you looking at the 5'9" also? How's the 5'6" Vanguard treating you? That one looks spot on in terms of volume too for me.

    Won't have it for a couple of months yet.
    I like the look of the 509 Brow and the 510 Chedda. Can't justify anymore boards right now but if I don't get on with the Vanguard i'll be considering one of those!

    I couldnt agree more. I too often buy something not exactly what I want. Looking at the Unibrow dims, again I would want a slightly different dimension than offered but with 1 inch gradients in length the difference is very marginal and not worth sweating over. I have a couple of FW's now that I cant say the same about. Good work.

    I'll be fondling the Unibrow when it hits Oz stores with intent. I'll also follow the commentary on how it goes pretty closely and sizing choice will be influenced by that a lot. Is it a Dom replacement? Or more an average wave board? For me I also have to work out which quiver I intend it to work in - the fat arsed slightly unfit quiver, or the fighting fit quiver?
