The Wava Hull

#1

Unread post by Poobah »

I recently sold my BAQ Wava Hull to raffdog19. As part of the deal, I asked him to round up the History on this board...maybe interview the inventor. raffdog19 also mentioned that the inventor's nephew is getting the latest version of the Wave Hull next week.

Hey Poobah. Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. This is the inventor's nephew. raffdog19 and I have been busy the last couple years finishing our education and searching for jobs and completely forgot about responding to your request. I appreciate that you sold raffdog19 the board because he sold it to me. Our family has been looking for this large model for quite some time. They were very limited and are pleased to have it back in the family. As for an interview with the inventor, that may be hard to do. My uncle is currently working on a new project...the sport he calls SKWIM. You can check the page out. Here is the link about my uncle, again since he is the inventor of these boards and the founder of SKWIM. I will try to get you more information about the boards soon. The new model is actually still in progress, but there are prototypes. I'll try go get some pictures of those in the coming months.

Here is one of his smaller boards. I'm assuming raffdog19 already showed you one of these.

Awesome. For the sake of our readers here, the bigger board is 40 inches long.

I'd like to know the connection between the BAQ Wava Hull and the Voit Speedrider. I've always assumed the design was sold to Voit. When would that have been?
