Join the Bonzer revolution

I picked up 2 new beautifully finished Malcolm Campbell Bonzers from Nigel Semmens in Newquay on Friday.

Due to a nasty virus and a slight lack of rear fins (Guy Penwarden has them hostage until the boards are paid for I think LOL) both boards remained unridden despite some good surf.

When I saw my mate Oli (fellow lifeguard) today - he commented it was like owning a piece of surf history, and that's pretty much how I feel... privileged to have met Malcolm and have him shape me two boards. bonzers2007 015

The colours of  both are a tribute to the man who inspired (and prodded) me to seek Malcolm out, and who named them - board collector (and rider) Tim Elsner from California - so the bumble bee really is one (see pics), and the Pod is the green of the Pea. So I have a "Sea Pod" and a "Transatlantic Bee". ..
I'll let you know how they ride :)
