Fun board. Have had one for a while and it's my go-to board. Flat with a touch of width makes it good for Perth but I'd want something different for real waves. The rocker makes it go great upwind and in small surf. Bigger waves it can get skatey as expected. Doesn't paddle unless you're 45kg. I have the 5'6" and I'm 70kg. Have had good feedback from others borrowing the board also. Would recommend, but there are others which look good in the same category, eg North Whip and BWS Drifter.
