If you measure your life's accomplishments in inches instead of miles it feels like you've achieved more then you probably have.

Wait, is this the one Onefin hipped you to over a year ago? Wow. I thought that was a mini-hornet as well. Congrats, dude. |

wow, pretty awesome.
what's the story on this board...did you order it 8 years ago or did you lay dibs on a half-finished stock?
is Gene going to be working with kevlar regularly?
i can't wait to hear a review.

If I remember correctly, and I'm sure Pefa or Onefin can give you the real scoop, Gene was making the board for himself, but there was a mix up where only the bottom and not the deck got glassed with kevlar. He shelved the board half done for awhile while he figured out what to do with it, which ultimately seems to have been to sell it to Pefa. Sick, sick looking board. But NJ_LB is correct, this is probably THE LAST COMET that will ever be made. Good for you, man. Take care of her. |
