looking for 50 euro OBO

i am moving back to the usa sooner that i thought. i really would like to take this board home with me because i like it a lot. problem is the post service tops out at 150 and this guy is a 164.

used and is okay condition. has 10mm of camber left on it. the topsheet edges are a little ragged. bindings are older proflex f2s.

i am in switzerland and will send throughout europe. depending on size restrictions it will by post or ups/dhl

Hey Lex,
Nice to have another h/booter back to PNW.

You should be able to get that board on the plane with you. Most of airlines accept oversize luggage, you just need to check it in on a different counter - it doesn't go in on the conveyor belts. I knew a guy who took his dinghy's mast in (~20' long)!

Otherwise, you can alway pick my Lotus 158 - it has better flex for your weight (if I don't decide to keep it as my short/funn/moggul board).

hey.. might take you up on the offer (though i prefer a longer board)... i was planning to be in CH for two years so i packed for two years. i got a lot to take with me and ship, the additional baggage charge exceeds what the board is worth. it will be good to be back... might even have to rent a board and hit palmer.
