Can anyone give me some recent reviews? Flatwater & Downwind. Pure vs Carbon Kevlar, where i could try one near the gold coast. Cheers

I think Scott's got them at Greenline
but I'd ring him first:)

More info here.. www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Stand-Up-Paddle/SUP/Theres-a-new-race-board-in-town/?SearchTerms=new,race,board,in,town

It's great board but as a flat water racer I don't think it's as fast as the 14' Javelin.. and as a down-winder I don't think it's as good as the 14' Glide.. But as an allrounder flat water racer that you can do down-winders on.. it's perfect.

Thanks DJ and Johnwest.

Just wondering if anyone has ridden one recently and often to tell me what they thought and if they have used them in any races.

Just looking at dj's photos in the other thread and wondering what the width is at the tail. Reason I ask is I wonder if when getting into surf stance on a steep runner the raised rails would get in the way.

I didn't find that they get in the way when stepping back.. But they do restrict you from moving forward.. I found that one step back on a runner there is a nice sweet spot and the board becomes very stable and surfs well but if you move back any more and it seemed to become unstable.. but that might be something that you just need to get used to.
