    The bottom of the board still needs to be sanded and the like. The deep center fin is taped like that while the epoxy cures to insure it stays at the proper angle, in this case 90 degrees from the board. The FCS plugs are for the 4 bonzer side bites, which are heavily canted. It'll be fun to ride!

    Some pictures of the bottom. The large center box is still curing the fin is taped in position to make sure it winds up vertical. You can see the FCS boxes on the sides, there will be 2 fins on each side that are heavily canted, so it's a 5 fin bonzer

    I'll look for a deeper fin

    @ Timmy when we order from Stretch it's 6 weeks, period. When Roush was building for me, I wouldn't even get the first EXCUSE for 8 weeks.

    I am hoping someone gets 10 off the nose on this baby!

    Is there a prize for the first rider to get all 10 toes on the nose?

    Actually, now that I think about it, it's only been 5 weeks since I ordered it...maybe that's not that bad?

    That's awesome! Can't wait to see you riding that thing. So funny seeing the graphics laid out, it looks backwards!

    Wish they would build my board that fast! Dennis said it would be done last week and haven't heard from him...

    I don't think Mike has an inventory of them, but if you tell him which shape you're interested in, he'd be happy to make one for you.

    I'm looking forward to your build, also!

    Side track...Jeff, do you know if Mike has any of his new shapes available for sale? I saw a pic of some on FB and if they are available, I might order one in advance of my own build.
