Airborne Kitesurfing have a demo Hammer pop in some time and have a go on it.

Had a great session on the 144 down at Brighton earlier in the week, great board. Corry seemed to be loving the 138 on the same day, but he didn't seem to stay out on it for too long today, I can't imagine why not it only appeared to be one gust at 50knts.

Thinking Naish SOL 08.
Wood core, gorgeous flex, round edges, does the job very well in waves.

Just ride your regular flat water board just with some bigger fins in the back. Does the trick and you don't end up carting around three boards everywhere.

North 2008 range features a twin tip surf dedicated: the X-ride 08.
Elaboration of the crossride 07 - already praised for its performance in waves-, the X-ride has smooth rounded edges and comes with small surf fins. Another very adequate option.

I'd say it might have been the brown stuff leaking from his wetty...

Awfully hard to pull the gun moves with a freshy wedged between your cheeks... or so I am assured

DELTA in WA make some great wave specific twin tips - great profiles and nice and rigid. I've abused one for about 2 yrs now and it is still going strong...

This is a 144 x 41,TT. Ends are is similar dimensions to my surfie.
Thruster in one end and trincer in the front, goes alright.
Bit too much flex for me 3 years later, now I have worms.
