AUSTRALIAN |
Shaper: Pat Morgan??
Design: Slipper Nose Gun
Year: 1970's
Dimensions: 8'0"
This is a cracking Slipper Nose Gun from Victoria in original condition and awaiting a polish to make it shine. Made for pure down the line speed at large Bells, Winki or other spots that could hold size.
Hard down rails, a sleek outline and beautiful (but small) fin make this a work of art. No direct provenance known on history of board or the shaper - would be keen to hear from those of you who may be able to help here and also refine the year it was shaped in, 1971/2??
Originally offered for sale at Mick Mock's 2008 Sydney Surf Auction but withdrawn on the morning of the sale. Acquired in 2010 and was stoked it came to me. An iconic board whatever way you look at it.
