    Default Need my bottle rocket!

    Hey guys,

    I was wondering what other companies currently produce/sell boards that look similar to Roe's Bottlerocket shape. I know it's an oldschool shape and not as many people are using it now, but I think they look really awesome. Also, I really like the board in the display picture for the "Custom PS" they put up (even more bottlerockety). http://www.roeslalom.com/foamcore.html

    Are there any other companies besides Roe/Fatboy that currently makes boards in this style? Thanks a lot.

    You mean the board where Gareth TRACED Rick Howell's template for a cutaway Ick?

    Well if you want one just like it, get an Ick. Custom flex matched to your weight and preference. (Never forget: "medium flex" for a guy @250 pounds is different than a medium for someone weighting 150.)

    Other similar boards (but not exactly the same) are Pocket Pistol's Stealth Cut Away and of course the Turner Full Cut Away. Also, don't forget that Roe has the Bottle Rocket as either a foam core or a PS (Performance Series) constructed similar to a Fibreflex: glass and wood sandwich with varying flexes.
    Just because you can take a naked picture of yourself doesn't necessarily mean you should.

    I recently started a thread about Gareth Roe. I might be biased, but just I ask you read the thread and decide for yourselves.
