Interesting with the full veneer.  Fanatic makes solid race boards.  Don't really get the value in the "CAD Shaped" part, seems a bit cheesy.  Just put "Shaped by", most are not going to care or mistaken it for "hand shaped".

Wow, really nice looking board.

That striped multiply wood on the deck, is the same wood hidden under white paint on the older (pre-bamboo) Naish boards. I think they made a mistake painting it white because that looks awesome. BTW, that wood is still used under the yellow paint on the current Naish boards.

Sweet looking race board. Love the wood! Will it come in smaller widths?

That board is gorgeous.  Is there less volume in the front than the old board?   Can't tell if it's an optical illusion or if the hump is less.

It weighs about the same as the non carbon version and cost about the same as the carbon version..

It's the first of what they call their collectors edition.

I like the "teak and holly" effect on the top. Going for the old yacht deck look.

For the uninitiated, the "wood" is a paper thin veneer, artfully applied. Very thin and very hard to do well over compound curves. Unless they've fooled us all and are using photo wood.  ;D
