A guy in Valencia claims to be Malcolm's team rider, and he has a Bonzer he says is called the Ripple Rocket. ??? WTF is that?

Never heard of it. I'll ask Malcolom about it, but he's in Oz at the moment and sounding a bit over-worked/burned out. The last thing he needs is an e-mail about a ripple rocket in Valencia. When he gets back, I'll ask.

I told the guy to meet me at Strand so I could look at the board, but he was a no show. He was selling it.

So the Ripple Rocket is also the MBLV?
In that case, I'm riding one.

I've seen a few around but have not ridden one yet. i really want to though. Anyway, they've all been 5-fin and to me look like a mini merk with a wider tail and flatter rocker. But what the fark do I know? Let's wait till we get the full scoop from Malcolm. And like Dirk said, there have been some in Ventura surf shop.

OK, let's put this thing to rest.
Straight from the Malcolm's mouth, The Ripple Rocket was a board that was requested and named by Surfers Supplies in Ocean City NJ. It's pretty much a Mini Merk with a straight cut swallow tail on it that is about an 1" deep. Typical dimensions on a 6'0" X 19 7/8 would be 13 1/8 N and 15 T with the ST coming in at about 7".
