I ran by Dave at the Carolina Cup, He wasn't up for a 16 yet and definitely no for the steering. It may come to him
at some point if there is enough demand but probably too much on his plate as it is these days. Too bad, it would have
been a sweet board.

Yes he has not been very receptive to 16' and was rather considering - if needed - jumping to 17+ like One, Sunova and SB.
He is a 12.6 man himself so I can see where he is coming from plus nobody in the market is looking at 16' as an option.
Hope that we do not get to mine is longer than yours to define the few UL models available....

The weird thing is, he didn't even want to do it as a custom. But knowing him, he's very quick to react to the market, just like
he dropped his reluctance to dugout and colors on the Blackfish an unlimited is surly on his mind. On the other hand, an unlimited
board from Naish seems very unlikely...
in progress...

I thought long and hard about getting the 2018 Maliko 14x26. This might be the board
that might hold water for the one board quiver concept and it would have been my choice
If I had to choose one board.

I'm taking all the elements I liked about this board and work them into my custom 16.
I think I'm done with with the shorter boards, they can make all the faces they want
at the races but I couldn't really care less, it's not like I'm collecting any the prizes anyway.
I'm just in it for the fun and we both know these long boards are fun ;)

Interesting evolution from a 2-piece 12'6 race board and a 12'6 DW board.

Can only agree with you.

Evolution ongoing yugi. my first 16 suppose to arrive in a few days. That should be interesting. Would love to have your take on it, I know you have at least 2 of my favorite boards.
