I agree with CaptKneemo post in relation to velo. These are very different in design to the flex spoons that I made. Paul told me that GG designed these Flex spoons for pure speed ... So they can be quite twitchy. As CaptKneemo pointed out the Velos are similar to displacement hulls... In fact GG ha...

Hi Only made 20 or so of the flex spoons ... But a few quick comments ... Yes a different rider style is required to normal knee boards.... I much preferred riding Glass spoons because of the flex as I found the carbon version lighter but stiffer. With the glass spoons you can feel the dynamic inter...

Great news Mark ... storming heaven with prayers ... hope you get wet soon

Pass on my best to Mark ... a great man ... he convinced me to take to the spoon, then to build them ... our thoughts and prayers are with Mark and his family ... look forward to see him on the velo shortly cheers Damien

I got Mitchell to build me a kneeboard a couple of years ago before i started building spoons. It is a great board ... sensational over 4'. sned me a pm with your email address and I will send some pics cheers Damien

Occasionally I sell my 2nd hand spoons for $500 ex freight from Sydney .... @ $2500 it is an absolute bargain Paul does not build spoons any more ! cheers Damien

Thanks Headwax, I remember proudly picking my new Earthrise board in the late 70s ... it was a great twin fin board ... sadly the occy straps broke and so it did as well .... great memories came flooding back when I saw the logo

I think George also strengthened the straps with some carbon. It is worthwhile remembering that he is about 130lbs and so there is a power to weight ratio for him, as distinct from others. For instance I am about 200lbs, when I showed him my Pro Force Fins he talked about how stiff they were. But fo...

Hi Stu, in for a penny in for a pound :) The Sleds are the e-glass version of the edge spoon and can be purchased for USD$950 (the is the photo with clear deck and blue edges) I think that is about AUD$1160 and about GBP490. The Skimmer model is the carbon fiber edge spoon. It sells for USD$1450 and...

I have posted a pic on http://www.edgespoon.com/myspoon these are hand made from mold taken from one of Paul Gross' fins. The ride - if you look on the underside of the edge spoons they are a complicated design that promotes lift, so the spoon actually lifts up and sits on the sleds. The velo is bui...

Just a heads up ....I have read this 3-4 times and consider this an ad for my spoons ... read on at your own peril :) After 20 spoon builds, consulting the builders who know, and fielding input from those spoon riders who really, really, really know and then seeking out the latest technology to meet...

Hi All We are really pleased with our new website. It has been a labour of love and we have kept it in the quiet, including the spoon creation. I apologise to anyone in our community that I have been less than forthright with over this past 9 months but we wanted to wait and put the site up. Also, m...
