Walden Mega Magic review

The first Walden Mega Magic's from Global surf industries (GSI) have hit dealers down under, GSI has a review page and below is the first review.

John Thurtell from Queensland, Australia says:
Only brought the 9 foot Mega board 2 weeks ago , Straight out on nice point break 2 strokes on wave ,The board turns well ,nose rides like a park bench , I normally surf boards between 10 foot and 11 foot, this board paddles as good and catches waves with ease, i was a bit worried that the thickness of board would limit the boards performance but it doesn't , best board i have ridden by far, i am 88 kgs and floats me like the Queen Mary .I I have now surf the beach breaks with this board and i was very supprised by its speed . I would recommend this board to anyone (ANOTHER GREAT WALDEN BOARD) I have had a 10 foot magic model for 2 years which is a great board but this board for me is awesome

The 2009 MSA Classic is always a great surf event, this year was no different.

"The MSA Classic is the premier competition in the Coalition of Surfing Clubs annual series. This club-level, invitational contest will be held at Surfrider Beach, Malibu from September 12-13, 2009. More than 275 invited athletes representing elite surfing clubs from California, Hawaii, the East Coast, Japan, and Australia will come together to compete at First Point, Malibu, one of surfing’s legendary waves.
"Other sports have Yankee Stadium, Churchill Downs, Old Trafford, Madison Square Garden, and Camp 4, Yosemite. All fine. Surfing has their spots, too, and one of them is First Point, Malibu. So come to Malibu. Hang out with us and take it all in. Witness the history and walk among the legends.” said Michael Blum, MSA President.
