Pure Joy
/Here’s a new mat for Josh Jacobs over in Hawaii named “Pure Joy”. Josh has been after a new mat and managed to get in on this round, having been riding one of my mats for some time.
Here’s what Josh had to say:
We talked about what Josh was after. The mat he had from Jason is a 70/70 free-breather Rubber Bucky. The mat is a bit under sized for Josh but still, that particular set up can be tricky in heavier and hollower waves. Josh was after something more stable to expand his matting options but still an all rounder.
With all that in mind, a Ute seemed the obvious choice. I have scaled around Josh’s existing mat (see G-Mat 83) and his body dimensions in combination as he feels happy riding it. We have gone for a 200d deck with restricted venting (wheezer) on the inside so Pure Joy will hold her shape and offer a more stable deck. Pretty nice quiver mate for his other mat named “Self-Pleasure” (Jason named it!).
Looking forward to feedback from Josh on this build. Have fun mate!
Cheers
G
