Great Handplane

Fits perfectly into the quiver

Very nippy

Good all round bit of kit. Just the correct size for beach breaks where you need versatility great service from the company

VERY COOL

Wave riding fun. Love it!

YOWSER!

First time using a plane , so much fun especially going left which I normally struggle with, thumbs up

Excellent transaction

Yet to get any of them wet but they look like works of art and arrived super quickly interstate. Perfect gifts for teenagers too!

Excellent transaction

Yet to get the hand planes in the water but love the look of them and they also make perfect gifts. Arrived super quickly to Tassie

Great transaction

Yet to try them in the water but love the look of them and they arrived super quickly to Tassie.

Exactly as Advertised!

Prompt shipping and arrival, shaped my first one this last weekend. A perfect way to start out shaping!

Easy way to be a shaper!

Everything as advertised, delivered on time and complete.

Marine Studies Class

Always stoked dealing with the Ecto team. My HSC Marine Studies class cannot wait to start designing their planes. Maybe a trip to urbansurf to test them out!

Great product but I was ripped off

Great product but I was ripped offI pre ordered a Metal Fly Fish 9.5inch V2.0 on 8th May thinking that I was supporting you providing extra income during the manufacturing process. I have been a good supporter of Ecto with purchases in the vicinity of $1000. I was surprised that if I had not pre ordered I could have purchased the same item for $101, original price $157. Might I suggest that you immediately offer me a credit for the loss, $56 or a full and total refund of $NZ202 for the purchase which has not shipped yet despite a shipping date of 18 June. Kind Regards John Pike Follow Up This item arrived in New Zealand today together with a pair of DIY kits. The cynic in me thought that having read the e-mail I sent earlier (Sun 7th July) you may have included a sweetener with the dispatch. Firstly you were a month late (expected June 18th) dispatching the Metal Fly Fish and the price had dropped considerably so I was grossly overcharged. Maybe you had forgotten the Metal Fish order because the day after I sent the e-mail (you have not replied to it 7th July email) both orders were dispatched, this action suggests a little guilt. I expected more. As I have alluded earlier I have be a loyal and supportive customer and to be extorted like this makes me wonder where your business ethics lie. John Pike ps Contact to the email address goes unanswered hence the poor review. Both items despite being ordered months apart were dispatched in the same mail bag. I had paid p & p for for two items which meant I was ripped off with the p & p too! Altogether a very unsatisfactory transaction - I hope (but doubt) some remedial action will take place.

Just a great product

I like that almost “non-existent feeling” on the way out through the break, swimming naturally. Then it really comes into its own when you’re up and “planing” with all the lift you need coupled with great control to really surf the wave.
Great idea and a great product that has been executed really well. Congrats.
