Thread: Michel board

  1. #41
    Hey core

    Have you gotten your MB 6'2" yet? How's the board working for you?

    Any chance of some pics soon? On my way to ordering one from overseas and just want to be 100% confident in my decision:-)

    Cheers

    Sweet, it looks like an absolute stunner.

    I definitely thought the rails would have way more volume it them. I just decided on the thicker 6'2 as an allrouder.

    Thanks heaps, Phil

    noberg, it does have a lot of volume in the rails through to the tail...i'll try and get better pics...the shape in 602 is beautiful..(nev's magic again)...and runs through combo's well...a lot of board here though..it is for big guys...i'm hoping to get on the thinner version to compare...will be able to advise better if i do....the shape will make full taj style surfing available to the average guy..will be much more forgiving....i'll hopefully report back with comparison...

    Hey core.
    Yeah, it was a bit har to see how much volume was put into the rails, but still looks really good. My options are either the one you have or the 6'4". Pictures of the overall volumes would be much appreciated:-)

    Its a tough one picking boards without actually see them live so really good getting your input here.

    For reference, I am 90KG and 192 so not a small dude:-) I am used to boards with 31-32L so the extra volume in the 6'2 will be good as I do not get to surf that much as I used to. My padling strength is not what it used to be. Ha ha

    Chris, do you have the 6'0" thinner MB now? Have you ridden it much? Any pics of the rails and outline on that one, really intrigued to compare it to my CBD!
