Sting Thruster made July 10th 2001
Shaped by/for the man himself, you can tell by the B.A. under his signature.
This was glassed at the Classic surfboard factory owned by Cippy Cabato a legend in his own right and was actually mentored by Ben as well as Sparky in the 70’s. Otis Schaper did the glassing and spray probably done by Stan. I know I set the FCS and leash plugs as I was shaping for Uncle Cip and doing varies jobs around the factory. We were handling all of Ben’s glassing back then. With all of Ben’s personals you will find the details of the dimensions on the stringer at various points on the board.
Condition is good with solid foam and a few minor repairs, deck shows some ‘vee’ from center to above the tailpad from use. The writing on the bottom is from when the previous owner saw Ben at a show and had him write a message. This can be removed easily as it’s just clear coated over, but since it is Bens writing I will leave that up to you. Also the reason I haven't taken off the wax is the original wax from Ben is still on it just waxed over through the years!
Board is in Honolulu and will ship via Delta/Southwest cargo to the nearest major airport at actual cost plus $50 packing fee. Assume $300 total with packing give or take.
