Some React Boards

[cab13367]

Reactsurf, a small, custom shop in the Vancouver, WA area that hand made custom wakesurf boards recently closed down which is really unfortunately because they made really great boards. My son and I have been riding their Drive model for three seasons now and absolutely love it and other than one ding that was our fault, it still looks new. Anyway, I went to their shop last week and picked up three of their last boards to demo and yesterday, mmandley and I (plus my son and mmandley's girlfriend) took them out on the river to give them a try. I enjoyed each board immensely, they are all fun in their own way. I am tempted to keep all three (much to mmandley's chagrin as he wants to buy one of the smaller ones). It's really too bad they closed their shop - each board is hand shaped and the graphics are all one of a kind - you will never see two alike.

I don't have any pics of us riding them but here are pics of them in my kitchen:

The 4'-9" Swivel - turns awesome, lots of fun to ride, lots of nose rocker to keep from burying it. And love the graphics, a real work of art:



The 4'-1" Mini Egg, a one off creation. Very responsive, surprisingly fast for such a short board due to it's width, definitely for the advanced rider though.
