Say "Hello" to Baby Blue...

Fresh from Ray Lucke's Glass Works comes this beautiful little speed egg. This is my "Wayfarer" model and its designed to offer great performance in a mid-length size. I wanted a board I could lock away in my camper shell or in the wifes's BMW (when necessary). This board's size makes it easy to transport and store in hotel/motel rooms. Here's the CraigsList spiel:

7-10 Speed Egg
Dims: 7’10” 16” x 21-7/8” 14-1/2” 3-1/8”
This new Thomas Patrick Speed Egg features tightly tucked rails with a spiral-V bottom. The tight tuck maximizes bottom surface and gets the board up and planing quickly, while the double concaves keeps the board loose. 2+1 fins setup keeps the handling predictable with plenty of drive and hold. Color is light-blue resin tint with red-orange pinline, with a sanded gloss finish by Lucke Glass in Camarillo. Moderate nose kick with low tail rocker makes the board forgiving in steep take-off, but very fast down the line. Price does not include fins, although I can add any new fins (including the Marlin Bacon solid bamboo set shown in photo) far below retail. Priced at only $399.00. Call Thomas 805-856-8554 or email if interested. www.tp4surf.com http://tp4surf.blogspot.com/
