Just placed my order

Just placed my order with Sunova by email today. I ordered a 6'1 for heavier, hollower waves between 2 and 4 foot. Apparently they are not fully ready to start so I will keep my blog visitors informed about how things are going.

I've been even dreaming about getting a new surfboard. I was going to wait and sell my old one to order a new one but just couldn't resist!

See you soon!

Sunova technology from WA shaper Bert Burger

I was doing some Internet research about Firewire Surfboards. I tried my friend's Firewire 5'11 at 2' Dreamland in Bali last week and sort of like it more than I actually like my Webber Tuflite.

I found out that shaper Bert Burger has sold his Sunova surfboards technology to Queensland shaper Nev and this Billabong guy (that sold his bong shares for something like 60 million bucks) and they re-named it Firewire, built a big fabric in Thailand and are selling boards like crazy.
Apparently Bert Burger was working for Firewire surfboards but for some unknown reason Bert Burger split with Firewire and got back to his Sunova surfboards business. That got me curious!

So I kept doing my Internet research and discovered Sunovas' website... well... I've gota go now, finish my story later, see yas!
