I want that surf board! That thing is awesome!
-
Shorts with a beer holder....freakin' brilliant!

The watermat looks like fun but not for that price. I could also use the shorts but if i am playing golf they really need to hold 2 beers since that is how long it takes me before I get to walk back to the golf cart.
-
has anybody tried to convert that surfboard price to US? is it $1,200 or $12,000 or something else?
-
$10,000 Euros would be $13,667 USD. I assumed being a German company it was quoting Euros but I may have missed something.
-
Per their webpage, it's 7000 - 9000 euros, depending on model. So $9k - $12K.
Pretty cool. The top model says the battery lasts 30 minutes.

Ok, so it's the $12k and being sold by folks that smoke too much dope. I'm in at $1,200, but no way at $12,000.
