…hey Neil, my new FREAK board is amazing. It has so much built into it. I feel proud to carry it down the beach. It’s stable. responsive, and very quick. As a surfer and now a new kneeboarder I’m getting the hang of it now and it’s an amazing feeling to go down a wave on this slick machine. Thanks for all your guidance step by step. I’m stoked…

…I have my yellow fish freak for over a year now and am loving more and more how it goes and its speed and so fun to ride. I rode a mal for more than twenty years so it took a while to get used to a kneeboard especially the swim fins.I am enjoying surfing again now that I am riding a kneeboard and my mate Fish from Coffs Harbour who also rips on a kneeboard we both love them. I am so glad that I have taken up kneeboarding at my age rather than giving up surfing.T hanks, Neil for such a nice board. Regards Kev…

…I’ve had the board out for a few surfs now. I did a nice big roundhouse cutty on the first wave. I love it! It’s clearly so much better than any other board I’ve ridden. Everything is better. It’s so stable, yet responsive, the speed and drive is unreal, I’m running sections I could never make. I was even out paddling mals yesterday…

…Your design is the fastest ride I have ever owned both on the wave and paddling to catch it. First wave was about head high and I carved it top to bottom, cutback with speed to bounce off the white wash then speed down the line. This is my style but I usually only have this speed on bigger waves. Can’t wait to try it on those bigger waves…

…Fresh Fish Freak, best all rounder i’ve ever had…
Erik, Australia
I have 2 of Neil’s boards-love them both. I surf the “Fresh Fish” as a all round board. It is great in a variety of condition’s from 1-6ft. it is ideal as a all rounder for a larger surfer good volume and ease of paddling. Been surfing it for about 12 month’s and it keeps surprising me. The other one is a 5 fin “Freak” another excellent board I took to Bali and it flew. Thanks Neil.

…Neil Luke still loving the freak you made 5 years ago for me . Still running all the same fin options as you have know. No need for anything else . The board has only just come back from Bali this year after 4 years on tour there . Almost time for a new one…

…Hello Neil just had 10 days in Bali swell ranged between 2 to 5 foot caught some cracker set waves at Kuta Reef board handled beautifully. Leant the board to brother, first time for him and he caught a few as well and now he is talking about getting back into it so you might get a phone call….Cheers… Went to Sth Straddie this morning and put the ‘Fresh Fish’ through its paces…it went like an animal possessed, had some really steep late take-offs and the board handled it beautifully, I think the fuller nose helped. It turns on a sixpence I am really happy with it…

…mate, I’m in absolute awe of how good this board goes…

…With the small waves on offer it’s been interesting to compare how it performs in these conditions. It’s taken me a while to get used to the 4 fins but I’m very pleased with the way it performed on the bigger waves this week. It feels quicker and more manoeuvrable and I’m very happy with it. Monday was one of the most fun days I’ve had in the surf for a long while. I wouldn’t go back to riding anything else. Thanks for such a great board…

..I have been riding your boards for the last twenty years. I have been living OS so my brother would have you copy a previous board… I am now living in Switzerland and surf the Canary Islands as well as my annual return to Phillip island. My son (13) is now surfing kneeboard.. Also on an old one of yours…. I am hoping that you can make me 3 boards…Are you still shaping and if I sent you a board could you copy it?
Naoaki, Japan
…board arrived today. I was satisfied with a splendid board very much. Thank you.
Mick, Australia
...Neil you are a bloody genius, just surfed 5 to 6 ft Sunneymede and ‘The Freak’ sticks in the barrel like it was born there, very very bloody happy…
Jim, Australia
...the board is a missile. It sits tight in the pocket, just up the face and tracks beautiful. No sliding or slipping. Once the wave hit the reef it just went faster and faster , tuck in and it just keeps its line, but it still turns and drives when you want. I am really happy with the board…
