Default Finally a board under 700 (?)

Not trying to pimp, just thought this would be interesting to many.
I haven't asked yet. Not sure if this is for real (sometimes they joke on the site).
Tom and I have been saying in conversations for awhile we both think boards are too expensive.

I think TT are pritty cheap to make for kiteboard co's

BUT

if they make custom kite surfboards for $700 is a different matter since a reg surfboard will already cost that

Great price, but I'm not sure how I feel about the shape. The dome on the deck is sort of narrow and rail line is not a continuous lofted curve, but has a straight section which also looks odd.

BUT... the size is perfect for us heavier guys, and if it rides good then that is all that matters. For $299 thats a pretty good deal.

If I recall, I've seen lots of boards under $700...

I counted about 20 on this page, maybe 15 if you don't count the $699 boards...
