Do you recognize this MBS?
Hello, newbie here. I wanted to introduce myself, and also ask a question.
I Just got a twister II from Dakitez (thanks Dino) and am now looking for my first board. I thought I had a line on a nice used comp 16, but it fell
through. I found this one for sale, but the guy does not know what model it is. Can anyone recognize the model from the graphics?

Looks like a 2003 MBS Comp 26X
Corey has specs for it on his site, windpowersports.com

The top graphics look like the Comp 26X. I had the guy send a photo of the bottom, and it looks like it has clouds on it, which does not look to
match the 26X.  |

Bottom graphics match the 26x as shown here
But in that "bottom" image you posted, I see rusty bolts and rust on the springs. Not a good sign for longevity in many cases. Depending on the deal
you're getting, may be worth it to grab it and buy new trucks for it from MBS.
Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.

Could you have him send you tip-to-tip photos of both the top and the bottom of the deck.
