Hi All,

My partner and I are new to SUP and have just bought two new NAISH boards. We told the seller we wanted the same board both for flat surf and a few waves. It was suggested we get an Alana and a Nalu. We ended up with a Alana 10"10 GS and a Nalu 11"4 GS. We were told they were the same board just a different paint job for the lady and the man. When we received them they look totally different. The Alana has groves on the bottom is wider and has a square back, the Nalu smooth bottom not as wide and a rounder back. What's everyone's feelings on these boards and how much different are they? Have we been given a bum steer when wanting the same board thinking we would be on equal ground when paddling together?
