August's Dealio - the Velosim


Once again...a board of the month for anyone interested!

Figure i'd choose the velosim for this month since i've been getting a lot of questions and a whole lot of good feedback lately from them.

Sized between 4'11 and 6' (for the big boys), they're full of volume and curves...I use a lighter belly/hull in the nose with a more relaxed rocker, and transition to a tri-plane bottom w/a single concave from between the feet through the tail.  My template is a wee bit curvier in the tail end as well, taking a little bit of the blockiness out of the back end.

$500 w/marine ply glassons, $470 with lokboxes for the month of august, turnaround is aboot 6 weeks at the moment...shoot me an email and we'll get sizing nailed down :)

Oh man... I'm a board sale short!

Sweet boards, Ryan. I'll be contacting you when I have the money to buy one.

using Ice9 for everything, 6 bottom 6 deck w/a patch if ya want one. they're skatey and pretty dang loose when you get your feet over the tail...ride it more like a fish than a hull.

Doesn't hold a candle to the orange dream machine.
