I am a little surprised at the lack of customer support as well......

Do you really know what your board is made of ????

Very interesting...................

Congrats to the winners.................

Thanks for all the hard work Dave.

I just picked up a 400 Severne skinny from windance. They are actually made by Powerex. A great deal @ $299 ($25 shipping). They have 370's available too. The Powerex are quite a bit stiffer than the EZZY, so I have been told.

Thanks again for all the advice MF4. I will probably check out boards in the 110-115 range. I'm thinking a slalom/freeride mix.

I've been working my wife to get up to the Nat a few times this year. With or without the clan.

Me definately needs more TOW....................!!!

Cheers, Rob.

Thanks Jimmy. And a fellow ferry worker, I've been told. I'm one of the big lugs in stores. The 2 boards I have are a start M (205L) and a new Starboard Hybrid Formula (230L). No, I have not yet figured out water starts. This is why I am asking the question on a short board. I have bought a few boar...

Thanks for all the tips dudes. I have bought a few boards and ended up selling them off because I really didn't know what to look for. I am leaning towards the slalom/freeride type boards such as the S-type or the Tabou Rocket. Both these boards seem to cover blasting as well as manouverability. The...

Thanks for the reply. I bought the Carve 131 as a demo last year and didn't ever use it. I have a young family (hence the large sail range for light wind boards) and seem to only ever get to the lakes and occaisionally IV. After buying the 131, I went on the Starboard forum. I explained the wind ran...

I have been sailing for about 2 years now on larger light wind boards and now I'm looking to get into a short board. I just sold a carve 131, that I never got to use. From what I hear, I should be looking for a board with a little less volume than the 131 for Nitnat, up the island and around Victori...

They have other methods too. I haven't quite figured this one out yet but this happened to me in the last week: I am Martins Tracewell from United Kingdom and would be coming over to canada in some weeks.I am intrested in buying your new 2005 8.0m Severne NCX, i am willing to pay 500 CAN cash immedi...

Does anyone know if the full retractable visor can be locked in only partially down?

I am looking to buy a helmet and I have noticed that the Gath helmets seem to be popular with many of the locals. Can anyone give me an opinion on the visors that come on the helmets? I was thinking of getting one with a visor but I am not sure about a full retractable or half visor.

Cheers, Rob.

Kus was right. I finally read your post. The 180 Go-board was only available up to 2003. I just sold a 2003 GO200 for $850 but it was practically new. The 180 would be a little more versatile and I would expect to pay up to $800 for the board alone(if it is in near new condition.) A new Go board wil...
