Hi Paul,
Hope all is well mate! Your packaged arrived the other day,
many thanks again for your generosity & speedy delivery ......so
STOKED!
Finally had a chance this morning to
share a few small waves with just Paul and myself, not bad considering
its a long weekend, so pretty chuffed to share a few and swap mats ,
even the wind played ball and didn't blow us out to sea. Love the feel
and size of the Lotus, and with these mats being Super Sport models,
their broken in and ready to roll straight off the bat.The forecast looks
good for tomorrow at our favorite, so hopefully have 4 of us out
testing the mats out in larger & longer running waves.....stay tuned
to the Bat channel .
A nice comment on-line from Mr Dirk explaining what the Super Sport models..
We
noticed that it takes a while to break in a new mat, but when it gets
more supple it's more responsive and swift. So PG worked out a way to
break-in the material before he builds. His explanation -- "Super Sport
versions of the 4GF models are built of pre-broken in fabric...which
means they "go" from the first wave. I've done this for several years on
my own mats, so I can quickly test prototypes more effectively. We now
make them available for customers. Being labor-intensive, they cost
$300."
Vale
my Omni....from a couple of months ago. We were surfing another one of
our favorite reef/cove breaks, whilst doing the walk back round, jump
off the point , I decided to film Paul leaping from the rocks, and didn't
quite take enough flipper steps back , when a couple of rogue sets
washed thru, knocked my flippers from under me, and I came down , bottom
of mat first , and rip 2 big holes to the underside of the mat...so
these new mats are a welcome addition to my surfing equipment!
Many Thanks again Paul!
Regards from Oz
Adam
