    Gents, This was either a 5ft 8 or 5ft 10. I think 5 ft 10 - I will dig the demo back out and confirm.

    Hope you like the vids. This is one superb looking board!

    Cheers

    Just checked the board in the video and it is the thicker 5ft 10:

    FMB_510Q-03 5' 10" 18 1/2" 2 7/16" squash 27.2

    Screen shot by Core is interesting. I think this does show the volume through the middle of the board. But what is quite hard to show is how the volume is so well hidden and tappers out towards the rails. I have seen a few comments on people concerned on the volume of the thicker Bourez model. But having spent a while pawing over this board I think this will be much more of a benefit that a disadvantage. Genius board!

    Cheers,

    No worries. Don’t want to give duff advice...but from looking at the board I don’t think you will have any problems. Good luck!

    Concave Depth

    Hi Chris,
    The MB is advertised as having a 4mm single concave. I was wondering how this related to the concave depth on the other HP models- Taj, Flexfire & Alternator?

    Cheers,
    Sarge.

    Sarge - I see you ride a 5'8" Hypto Krpto. Could you describe how it performs in relation to your Firewire boards. What conditions do you ride it v. your other Firewire shapes. Do you like it or was it an experiment?
