Makaha model power surfboard to feature in Mandarin Oriental magazine

Conde Nast publishers ( publishers of Vogue, GQ magazine, Wall Street Journal and a host of other top mags) contacted us a couple of months ago inviting us to display a surfboard in their upcoming watersports feature. The requirement was a high resolution surfboard picture with the board on a white background, and a deadline of 24 hours.Needless to say we jumped at the chance did a studio session at short notice. . .. . .. . and submitted this picture of the Makaha model, which has been accepted. The magazine will be published in April and will be available at all Mandarin Oriental hotels.Looking at the advertising rates for Conde Nast publications was an eye opener, over US$60,000 for a full page, or US $960,000 plus for a 40 page insert !Here's one of the Mandarin Oriental locations :.
