sorry to update everyone that I ended up selling my game after 9 years of ownership so the list on the front page is revised and if someone else wants to manage the list and see who is still in please do so, as this is no longer an item I need.

I am in on Surf Champ too, if this thread is still alive?

Does anyone know where I can score one of Wade's C37 playfields?
Of course, I got my game JUST after he ran them.

Sent Wade an email via the contact link on his site a couple weeks ago. Asked to be added to the list. No response, but none expected yet.

#76 2 years ago

Everyone who's still in, please PM me (INCLUDE email address - Wade does direct email announcements when he takes orders)

I have been helping Wade with these waitlists as he does not do Pinside. Also need to get a list for Cross Town going, please look for it if you want one.

From Wade today!!
Hi everyone, this is Wade writing to you with an announcement about the Surf Champ/Surfer playfields and you have asked to be on the update

list. Some of you may know that I helped make several clear, acrylic Surf Champ pinball machines with thePacific Pinball Museum many years ago.

Because of this, I already have the cutting and art files. I am asking those of you who have inquired or made commitments to this title to

reconfirm at this time with a quick response so I can begin making the blanks and order the proper amount of inserts. I have many inserts in

stock but I will be short on some colors if the interest is still high.

Very important, the price of all new playfields is 850 + 70 to ship. I have had to make adjustments due to rising costs that I have been

absorbing for years. While this may be a deal breaker for some of you, this price is on the low end of what the other playfield makers are

charging and my prices may increase in the future. Unlike the other companies, I am still screen printing my boards and this requires lots of

time.

I am also accepting deposits now. Because of the lack of follow through on Jacks Open, I will only be producing a number of boards based on

actual deposits. This will likely be a one time only run and very few extras will be made to allow for flaws/rejects. The best of the batch goes

out first to those who pay in order. The cut off date is the 15th of July.

I take paypal here at this same yahoo address

[email protected]

please copy and paste it in to avoid any typos.

My address if you want to mail a check

Wade Krause
1778 N Fowler Ave
Clovis Ca 93619
ph is 559 298 6236

Also important, just because you are on the list, I can not guarantee that you will receive a "first" and I will let you know if this happens. A

refund is always offered if this is not acceptable.

Some of you are waiting on Strange World. They are far along in the printing process and they should be done by the end of the month. I can

combine shipping if you are getting both titles.

Upcoming, possible titles are Sing Along, Cross Town, Atlantis, Slick Chick. Please let me know if you are interested in any of these.

Thank you,
Wade

progress will be posted on my Instagram and Word Press pages

For anyone interested, I was at Wade's shop on Thursday and saw the progress of the Surfer/Surf Champ. There was a bunch in production. Looking good. Email Wade if you want to be on the list to get one.

Wade had some delays working through strange world issues cascading into delays on Surf Champ. If you missed the cutoff to place an order there may be a slot or two open due to canceled impatient initial orders.

#89 1 year ago

Did he indicate a possible release date for surf champ?

Quoted from flipit:

He did not and I didn’t press it. The playfields are in the screening process though.

Spoke to Wade today, definitely in for Surfer / Surf Champ. Plan on paying in full early next week.

Is he close to shipping?

#93 1 year ago
Quoted from pinhead52:

Wasn’t too concerned about timing since I don’t even own the machine yet, just wanted to secure a playfield. Believe he mentioned that Strange World was delaying things and that Surfer / Surf Champ was a couple months away from completion.
He did mention Jet Spin.

#94 1 year ago
Quoted from Electrocute:Wasn’t too concerned about timing since I don’t even own the machine yet….

Same here. Sitting on an El Dorado playfield as well. One will turn up sooner or later. Once I get one, sure as shooting 3 more will pop up

Nice (somewhat) local pickup over the weekend.

If you’re curious, Wade’s price for Surf Champ / Surfer is $920 which includes shipping. I wouldn’t wait, you may get left out.

#99 1 year ago

I would buy another if I had at least one machine to put one in. As it is in buying for the future. last time I bought a playfield from wade I got two fast/quick draws. At the time I had just quick draw. As fate would have it a fast draw came up immediately after committing. I made good use of them both.
