Dunno how many surf on here, I know there was one lad on here from barnstaple I think....

Anyways, for the coming summer I just treated myself to a Cortez 6' 6" Fish. I prefer buying my boards from small indie stores so I got it from a shop i've used many times in Croyde.

The board's an EPS/Custom Epoxy design, I prefer the Fish coz of the unpredictable waves here...

Bring on the summer!

Must be pretty good to surf a fish tiger?

Need to get myself a minimal for the summer and was looking at the ESP's actually.

I'm just intermediate, a fish is a step down from my mini-mal, which is a 7' 4" The fish being buoyant like the mini-mal, but more responsive due to design.

The fish is a 6' 6" so its still pretty flexible, quad fin too so its quick on the pop and sticks on the rails too.

Check out the Cortez, they are well priced and epoxy too so light and responsive...

Any pics Tiger?

Are you having any custom work or is it factory spec?

Its factory spec, if I was riding every day, i'd consider spending more, can't really warrant it right now though..

Nice. I like the colour. It's almost got a vintage feel to it.

Yeah, the vintage fish have too big a cut in the tail, this is the modern fish so i'll be sure to post with how it handles..
