I've got one, gets me out on those light wind days with a 13m kite (PL Venom) so I haven't needed to get a bigger kite. It trucks up wind and loads up nicely for some ok jumps whem normally you'd struggle planning on a smaller board. This board really does plane early, it surprises me how it just jumps out of the water onto the plane with minimal power. Best off demoing one first though, I demo'd one from Airborne, if your in Perth.

Cardboards will do you a custom shape that works
for light wind. I have just ordered a 136x45 which will be perfect.
I have a 140x44 now and haven't ridden a better light wind board.
