    I've started on G-Mat 3. Infact, he's all stuck together! Not inflated yet as I'm still awaiting dye.

    This is a very robust build with chunky surf in mind. It's also the first mat completely designed on paper so I'm gagging to get it pumped up to see if it's hit or sh*t!

    Since building this mat I've ridden it in good waves from shoulder high to solidly over head including some chopped up. cross shore stuff. I need to test it in real slop to see if it really is the complete all-rounder but right now, I really think I'm on to something.

    I'm a very happy man right now! Smile

    Luckily I found slop right on my doorstep.

    And the result of the sloppy crap test is.... HIT!!!
