"Hi Mark
Just dropping you line to let you know I had the 12'6" out  on Sunday down at Bellambi point break. It had been some time since I'd
had it out...What a blast the board is outstanding ,,riding the 12'6" again well what can I say words fall short of the feelings you get
as you are on to a wave slide down the face make the turn and just glide across the wave with such speed and power, I truly feel free,
the buzz you get with the best part of 9' of out in front of you ,,,well it just blows me away. Thanks again for making such a GREAT
board.
Yours in surfing
Tom Fordyce  (see u out there)"
Hi Mark, The board arrived at Hawaii and it is unbelievable!  It is so much more beautiful than I even imagined!  It will be thoroughly enjoyed and cherished!  Thanks!
"Thanks for the great DVD– It was very informative; I liked how you concentrate on one board to show how to make it rather that changing to all different type boards. The sound is a bit bumpy but nothing major. I’ll buy some balsa from you soon and will use the $30 credit voucher that was included"
The board looks great- a work of art. My mate Yak who has recently had
Joe Larkin build him a 9ft 7 glass board is impressed! Just have to wait
for surf now!
Regards
Barry
Hi, Mark:

The board is looking really terrific. I hung it as soon as it got home, and it fits perfectly with the ambience. The colours are so good, with different shades, even some pink!
Problem is my wife says I shouldn't be riding it!!
Thanks for the masterpiece.
My board arrived late yesterday wow it is fantastic!!!!
The shape and rocker are perfect and the workmanship is out of this world.
You are a true craftsman.Keep up the good work and I am sure when the Noosa boys see the board you will be getting some more orders.
The 12'6" Balsa board you made for me is just great, it looks like a work of art and rides good as well! Its easy to see the passion, love & skill that you put into very board you make.
Yours in surfing

PS Still love the  9'2" you made me.
I received the DVD and have started. I'm really stoked at this project.
Thanks!
