Photos of 2009 Heresy boards including Banana.

I know these photos suck, but our main SLR lense got dropped and broken shooting St Jerome's Laneway Festival so we had to use a point and shoot (painful!).

Anyway, you can see a couple of samples we had shipped to us. I am super bummed my trip to Whistler in March isn't happening so I can test the banana, but we have Jaye our rep in Austria getting a batch too, so we can have some Euro rippers testing these for us.

Interestingly you can see below the camber menu from Rome, that was up at Boardistan.com. Our banana (a.k.a. "Smile")is in between the free and jib. Our aim is to loosen the board a tiny bit (which suits park/jibby type riding) but we can still get drive out of the standard camber (SC) as opposed to a reverse-mtn type full reverse camber (RC) to ensure control across the mountain. The edges are also tweaked a tiny bit, so stay tuned.



Shark/Amaze - sparkles from the metal flake we use. You can be super serious Grrrrr or a bit playful.


Heresy/Messy marking. Understated, subtle, clear.

We lined up a RC/smile on top of a SC Shark. You can see the RC made evident here.

Close-up of We Love This Earth (WLTE) aka "Trees".

Close up of WTLE base. The closeup takes away from the crispness somewhat, but once we add an iron/warm wax, it will be saturated and very bright.

Full length WTLE/Trees 153.

Top half Trees.

Bottom half Trees. We'll be adding some Heresy brand marking to the topsheet.
