    Perfect. This fills a gap for me - been waiting for something in lengths and volumes that fit between alternators and flexfires. Hopefully they'll be coming with round tails as options too.

    Yeah, I know but it'd be handy if each of the shorter ones could be round-tailed up like the Taj was in the CBD.

    I actually think these boards are a bit of throw back to the highly refined, high rockered boards of the early 90's that reduced fun and increased frustration...guess everything goes in circles but those boards are only going to be ridden well by a handful of very good surfers.

    I think its a Taj re-badge. Its under the special orders section as are all there older models meaning its not a new shape.
    5.10 Futura - What else do I need?
    5.5 Baked Potato - Well ok, I need this.
    5.11 El Fuego - Oh ok, just one more.
    6'1"@whopping 150LBS
    Mediocre surfer, ie; typical.

    * XM Clear Grip as a wax alternative.
