damn with that price tag i'll let you figure out the math on how many custom made paipo's you can have built by top shapers
or how many you can build yourself by buying top material
Additionally what kind of exercise can you get by getting dragged in the water by a machine
its all about the ride

This is a well-known solid French Beachbreak. It must have been a nightmare trying to get these things through the line-up.

What do you call a 7 fin floater? Amazing how those things took the drop.

Unlikely to catch on but pretty insane stuff all the same.
