The board would stay in my possession the whole time and I would assume full responsibility for it.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI'm not looking at this as some experiment to see if it works or not...I just want to have some fun with it.   (VPC please feel free to run with my statements...\n)\n        \n\n\nClick to expand...\n\n\n\n\nOnly a week and a half for several shops in different states ?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThat will guarantee that whoever rides the board has not enough time to get to know it.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThanks for the offer but my experience is that it's better for riders to use a board for several months at least.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n.\n        \n\n\nClick to expand...\n\n\n\n\n\tAnd there it is, boys and girls! Roy will never let a real surfer ride one of his boards because he knows that while pretty to look at, they are total failure in the function department! What a coward! And to think, Roy called me a \"***!\"\n        \n\n\nClick to expand...\n\n\n\n\nIdiot I have a demo board which is available to be ridden and has been ridden by dozens of surfers over the past four years, it was ridden by Duncan Campbell within the past month, presumably he's a real surfer as are all the others .\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick to expand...\n\n\n\n\n\tHmmmm... funny, no one has heard of such a generous offer! So, by a conservative estimate and assuming that each surfer got to spent a month or two with the board (that is the time frame needed as you stated) and assuming there are still 12 months in a year even in New Zealand, approximately 20 or surfers (Not including Duncan Campbell, of course) have ridden your wood over the last 4 years?  Wow!
