Personally, I love mine.

A great little board that is quick and nimble. Easy to throw around in mushy little waves but handles bigger stuff no problems too.

If the water is really choppy you will find it a little bouncy due to the short length of the board but if you edge hard and flex in the kness you won't find this to be a problem.

Initially I started using mine with straps but then took them off. Easier to swith now with them off. Have to be quick though once again becuase of the size of it.

I'd recommend it for sure. You'll love it in all conditions!
