OK Guys - just sorted this thread out a little after some sort of disaster.

A reminder - RCU does not permit the promotion of competing forums. Plain and simple.

Please dont ruin this thread for others

Hey JIMI

Looked up the word GUMPY - never new what it meant,

gumpy Can be used in different terms, but the true definition of gumpy is used to describe someone in a not necessarily offensive way, just kind of matter-a-factly.

Typically gumps are:
-tall
-gangly
-dorky
-goofy
-square
-dumpy

Its quite Aptly put - it describes most all the rc surfers I have seen thus far.

Definition of KOOK

: one whose ideas or actions are eccentric, fantastic, or insane : - have to say I am happy with that - been called worse in my life ..........................

Regards
Bro'Surfer

$28 more than what it cost me to build my 'entire' CUSTOM Bro' rc surfer - that is really amazing - looks like he is running a out runner motor.

Hey RC Surfers,

I have a pic of JASON holding his original DRY CELL RC SURFER and his NEW PRO RC SURFER on my desktop!

The new board looks sick!

He looks very happy!

Won't be long now!

Just found this thread - lots of info. Have seen a few videos on youtube and here and looks awesome.

Any links on the best place to buy a surfer. E-bay or stores (in Australia if possible). 

I think a new stock one would be a good place to start. Surf near me is not that big but plenty for scale I think. 

I see that there are changes needed for the stock ones and should be able to do those.

Hey Wiped,

Welcome to the RC Surfer World.
There will be some boards coming your way from Wombarra (AU) Very Soon.

Might want to ask Jimi on boards available in Australia.

Yes and No ?

The picture was taken by a guy named Dave from San Diego.
Those were his kyosho surfers in the water.
He sold me his boards about 4 years ago, He was not into it anymore.
He sent me a lot of pictures, This one is the best of them ...
