My favorite feature of this was the pack and how it all broke down to be carried in it. I thought that was so cool. When I was in high school I went windsurfing and you better believe I was thinking of the MANTA while I was on it! Great video, Dave C.
Glad everything went OK, and wishing you a speedy recovery. I just picked up the MANTA last month for the first time. It's a really cool for a simple as it is and thanks for pointing out the Manta Ray cut out.
Hi Dave C, hope you are doing well. I wanted a MANTA when I was a kid. I remember seeing it in the mail away pamphlet but for whatever reason I never got one. Which is weird because I had a swimming pool in my backyard and I tended to get a lot of water related Joe stuff. Thanks for posting.
Yes, so glad to finally get the surgery over with. Did you play with the water moccasin in your pool? I used to play with it all the time at the pool. And the sharc. Yo Joe!
@@gijoedavec-straightfromthepit Good bro, good. Yeah, I played with the Water Moccasin in my pool, the Sharc was a pool favorite of mine, and I ended up getting the Hydrofoil too. My parents weren't rich, but they really hooked me up with Joe stuff when I was a kid. I didn't get the Flagg though, lol.

Thank you! Yes that little manta ray cut out in the sail really typifies how much detail they did back then. Yo Joe!
I use to have one of those, thanks for throwback
Your welcome! Yo Joe!
Very cool. It's crazy that mail away items used to be such a big part of toy lines and now it's just not a thing anymore 😔
Yes, there are no special little things like this anymore. Instead its all calculated by profits. We had so many great things growing up.
Never seen one to this day. A cool mail away for sure. Living in a box🎶🙏 take care brother. Yo Joe
Yes, that song is how l feel after the operation.. 😅 , but like you said, will get outside soon enough.

Must be pretty heavy to lug around a wind surfer on your back. Hope you're well, Dave!
Haha, yes, l wouldnt want to carry it around. Thank you
