This year the Mick Pro is a touch fuller in the nose and has more volume in the rails and tail – making it more user-friendly for all those surfers who want to feel what it’s like to surf one of Mick’s boards. ASP World Title not included.

One of the most dynamic young surfers in the word today, Owen Wright’s board reflects his new school aerial driven approach. It’s got a full concave bottom through to a gently increasing bottom curve. The rails are soft up front and get blockier as you go back – giving a bit more leeway for when you’re landing moves...

This is Mick’s ‘round nose’ fun board. It’s perfect in anything from a foot up to around four feet. When Mick’s not competing and the waves are small, this is the board he takes out to have some cruisey fun. Best suited to a swallow tail.

Diamond Tail Quad Fish Specifications:

6'2" x 21-½" x 2-½" Shaper:

Grant Pratt The Quad Fish has an epoxy and S-glass construction with custom balsa wood inlay. The extra width of this quad helps you to get into waves earlier, and the flat to vee bottom contour gives a super-stable and consistent ride.

Balsa Performance Shortboard Specifications:

6'4" x 18-½" x 2-5/8" Shaper:

Grant Pratt Taking the best from old and new technologies, this shortboard utilises balsa wood and epoxy laminate to produce a super-strong stick. It’s got a deep single to double concave bottom contour, and its narrow width gives it a nice highperformance feel.

Lost Rocket Specifications:

5'8"x 19-5/8"x 2-5/8" Shaper:

Matt Biolos The Rocket features a wide forward outline with round forgiving rails, a flat deck and a wide “rocket” tail. The rocker is extremely low in the entry, for instant speed, with an exaggerated kick in the tail for tight arcs out of turns. The Rocket is a small to average wave all-rounder that can be ridden 4" to 8" shorter without sacrificing any carve or drive.
