Well I'd buy the fusion but as it will be my last board for a while I want to make sure I have crossed most avenues. The 9'6" Coreban was easier to ride more glide I liked it, but did feel alittle bigger than a 9' as I am not used to 9' boards. The Fusion rides good but in comparison, I have only ridden a Starboard 9'1" in Bali some good waves with Pete from SupBali that to was great. Both boards on the wave were great. But I am no expert surfer / paddler judge

. Just waiting to demo both side by side. I was about to buy the Fusion when my dealer said he's getting the PSH9'2" in that stuffed me up but I would not buy the bamboo PSH as they seem soft press your thumb into the deck to see it flex is what I mean the other PSH material is stronger . So now I have to try one now.

The other day I was back out on the Fusion in a cross chopp I was debating on wether to go out but there were some good 5'-6' waves. paddled out thinking I was going to spend more time off the board. I took 3 good waves and about 15mins before I got wet. My Paddling and balance is improving.
