Although this press release is coming from our friends at Cartel Australia, note that Cartel is of course distributed in Europe and the US (yeah it’s a US brand). We don’t know yet if Toby’s pro model will be available worldwide but we’ll let you know ASAP. It probably will since most Cartel pro models are available worldwide.

PRIDE Bodyboard just previewed what will be Mitch Woodland’s pro model in 2010. Check it out here. The board looks good and has a clipped crescent tail, unlike most boards in the Pride range this year. All boards had a rolled crescent tail with the deck rolling down on the tail. This time the tail has its own piece of foam. Got the difference ? Works pretty good and help locking your lower body on the board better we reckon.
