I've had the 10'2" paddler for about 3 months. I vary between 95 to 100 kg and am 185 cm. The board is Freakin amazing.

I will try the Hull rippers when they are released but the stability, manoueverabilty and the price on this board was unbeatable. They are good in virtually any conditions but the width is a bit of a problem in suckier waves. I have a couple of construction complaints though. The cheap price means that the materials they use are quite heavy and chip easily a bit of rail tape is highly recommended. It has now improved my surfing to the point where I can hold my own against anyone when I'm on. At 53 that's a nice feeling. It's a lovely transitional board and would suit anybody that wants a true all rounder.
