AUSTRALIAN |
Shaper: Bob McTavish
Design: Extreme spear tail Gun
Year: Early/Mid 1970's
Dimensions: 7'1"
This classic piece of McTavish art was picked up from my first attendance at Mick Mock's Sydney Surf Auction back in 2005. It was a must have board and remains a key piece of the collection which these days seems to be heading more and more in the direction of sleek guns and semi guns.
The extreme spear tail is a beauty and clearly for super fast down the line speed. The board is original in terms of colour and has had some small repairs carried out (very well but before my ownership). This really is quality craftsmanship at it best and most refined.
Any help accurately dating the board would be appreciated - 1972/3??
