HAPPY CUSTOMER

I bought my first Diverse Surfboard about 3 years ago. It is a 6'2x18

1/4x2 1/4 rounded pin DS model. I was visiting family on

the Gold Coast and had a look between Surfers and Coolangatta for first

of all a good store that I felt comfortable that I could ask any silly

question and get constructive advice and a good selection of boards.

Well I found that store. I walked out fully decked out with board, bag,

fins, leggy and accessories for a good price.

I still have that board and have surfed it on the Goldy, all the way

down to South Coast NSW where I used to live. SW WA where it actually

handled Margaret River better then expected. I now currently live in

Perth and it even handles well in the ordinary beachies we predominately

get here.

I was back on the Gold Coast visiting my kids and family about 2 months

ago. I had a NW WA surf trip coming up and thought while I was here I

would see if i could find a suitable board to take there.

I was so happy with my 6'2 i thought I would see if I could get the same

shape but in a bigger board as I would’ve needed it up there.

With advice I was happy with I purchased a model DT

6'8x19x2 5/8 rounded pin. A beautiful looking board as it had been a

while since I had purchased a new board. I had a smile on my face for

weeks in anticipation of taking her for her first ride up North.

Always a bit dubious about the first wave, wandering how it will handle

I went straight on my first wave as I threw myself into a 6' wave on

this fantastic left hand break surfing on my backhand. I didn't mean to

go straight but I think it was a reaction to not knowing how the board

would handle. It handled fantastic. So smooth. I instantly gained

confidence with my new beast under my feet. And as the swell hung around

for the rest of our 8 day desert stay, I got to nurture my style in

perfect long left hand barreling waves and with a board under my feet

that gave me confidence. I am in anticipation for taking it to Margs.

If I had the money Id have one of every type of board you have. Maybe

when I get the mining job i'm after to pay for them.

Cheers for the great boards!!

Feedback from Tasmania

Hey Dave
How's it going?
Here's the round up from all the East Coast surf we got last week.
That's me on the backhand on the first shot of the Sleeping Giant Awakes! i'm on the 6'8" turbo and it went unreal.
It's a shame the shot was taken in the arvo when the swell backed off a little and the wind came up a bit.
But hey there were only 3 of us out and was still heaps of fun.
Got a couple more orders coming through this week apparently so you'll here from me soon.
Keep those boards coming
