    From what I understand the next batch of boards isn't hitting the UK until March. I'd say it was possible there could be limited numbers of the new models on that shipment. I don't think it'll be long before the new boards are announced so keep your eyes peeled.

    Sorry curiosity was killing me.. Googled the new models and Just saw this on a UK website...
    http://www.secretspot.co.uk/Brands/firewire/
    New models coming for March 2012 include the Potatonator which is a cross between the sweet potato and dominator and this is one surfboard we are very excited about.We also have the Detonator We also have the Hellraiser coming which were sure will be popular and also a Michael Bourez Pro model coming into stock.

    Just guessing:
    Potatonator= is a cross between the sweet potato and dominator (that was posted and is obvious)
    Detonator = narrower version of the Dominator, nose and round tail pulled in more with wings?
    Hellraiser= Hell Fire with a narrower tail template offering it as winged Swallow tail also?
    Michael Bourez Pro = double sting wing - bat fang pin tail as seen on the Japanese youtube shot

    Nope, the Michel Bourez Pro Model is a squash tail thruster. You can check it out at http://www.surfride.com/getproduct.a...6&b=61&ptid=85

    Looks like standard shortboard dimensions but with some meaty thickness ... sick!!

    On Lost website it says "...Lost Surfboards now features Many models in both FST and Rapid Fire technologies. (The SUB Scorcher, The F-1, The Stealth and The Driver)."

    FST Scorcher also seems to be in the works, hence the driver and scorcher would be the new models. Maybe also extending the RF tech from the stealth to other ...lost models.

    Personally, I'll just keep my fingers crossed for an FST Sub Driver.
