here let me get that for you:

 

I have 2 Victoria woodies that work great! we dont have good waves for foam boards here

 

I've got a vic polyvac and a carbon exile. Love to skim since the surf is always pretty crappy on the gulf coast.

 

some of my friends have Exile and they are sick.

 

lol i made a thread like this

but i skim

i ride LANDS END at wedge, aliso, a-street, and 10th street

 

I doo, I got a zap wedge, terzen model

 

how do you like the carbon board

 

Haven't made one yet, just a potential project. I'm getting into composite fabrication, and its a pretty easy thing to make. I'll post pics once I have something made for sure.

Here this will give you a better idea of what I am talking about.

I like it, it's alot faster than the vic and you can get out alot further because it's so light. The only thing that i dont like is that it is almost too light. On windy days, you really have to plant the board when you drop it or else you'll have some black and blue toes.

 

How does the coating hold up? Is it wearing down or getting roughed up?

 

i do, but i do not have a good board. still using the first one i got when i was like 14 haha.

 

If this was for me, it holds up very good. The carbon fiber is much stronger than the fiberglass. You have your normal scratches from the sand and shells but the carbon board has no dings and dents like the fiberglass one does and they both have the same amount of use.

 

It was thanks!

 

im hoping to go get a zap wedge tomorrow

 

bump

 

i started out on a Vic Speeder. still on of my fav boards i have ever ridden.

 

no luck on getting a zap board today still on the look out for a board

 

ahh, all you cali boys! i skim the east coast, mostly NJ and southern DE...was riding a yellow grape carbon for a while, have since switched to a black zap carbon (a buddy of mine rides for them and got it for me dirt cheap, custom bottom art and everything!)
