6'5 x 22 x 3 Epoxy V6 MPegg from Mr. Parmenter. :grin:
This gem came to me by way of two ERBB'ers - it was shaped for Echobch, and I grabbed it from VCaba21, who had it listed in the Classifieds.
I picked it up back in July, and am finally getting around to posting about it - a few recent threads helped with the motivation.
Since getting the board, it has been my absolute 'go to', in ALL types of conditions - I honestly haven't clicked this good with a board in a very long time and have been completely stoked on this thing, from the moment I stood up on my first wave.
Speaking of that first session............the waves were complete waist high summer-time crap and I paddled out on the 'new' board just for the hell of it. I could NOT believe how well this thing performed in the sh!tty beach break conditions!
Since that time, I've had countless sessions in all types of conditions/sizes and there has never been a single time I wish I would have brought another board.
S-T-O-K-E-D!!
From the Nowtro site:
MPegg
5’6” to 7’0”
The MPegg is a component-specific replica of the stubby Michael Peterson rode at Kirra in Morning of the Earth. All the funky elements are filtered out and what remains is Fish-like speed in a large bore single-fin that is both fun-ctional in slop and a source of new sensations and lines in perfect point surf.
Active ingredients:
Wide and short planshape with widepoint well above center serves to lengthen and straighten rail line, which gives loads of speed and projection out of a super-short board.
Slight convex ‘hull’ bottom nose blends to flat and crisp vee panel at tail. Combined with a low rocker, this is one efficient hybrid planing/displacement hull.
Soft, low 70/30 rails allows full attack without skittering, yet also buries a lot of thickness without being blobby.
Standard dimensions:
16.5” – 17” Nose
21.0” Widepoint
15.0” – 15.5” Tail
2.75” to 3.0” Thickness
Single flex fin in center box; also adaptable to tri-fin or quads.
The MPegg is not a set design and can be expanded or narrowed, thickened or thinned, finned or de-finned to suit the rider's taste.
