Hey all,

I'm looking to get a 14ft race board for some social racing on the flat, as well as some racing offshore and doing some downwinders etc.

I've paddled a 2012 Jav 14 and found it a little too tippy and considering the glide.

Is there any difference between the 2012 and 2013 glides??? I'd love to see even less nose rocker than the change last time.

I'm also considering the Starboard all star, fanatic falcon, JM 14, Deep 14 or Sunny King 14 pro.

Unfortunatley there's not a huge opportunity for me to demo demo demo as suggested here, thanks to my work schedule clashing with most people with demo boards availability.

The glide in gs construction looks like great value for $$$ as does the Sunny king pro.

How much will I suffer in the flat in the glide vs the other boards mentioned.

Btw I'm 5'10 and about 90kgs.

Thanks for your help guys.

I've never seem them over here, only ever seen them online.

Jimmy Lewis M14? Aren't the JL guys in Rrrrrradelaide? There's the new Gerry Lopez downwinder from Surftech too (Kaiwi-Kai?). There's a bit more around in that style of board this year.
