Hi

I'm thinking of maybe getting one of these.
Anyone ridden one?

Cheers

Hey Chris,

Yes, the board is a ton of fun. Surprisingly easy to paddle for a competent rider, and carries a lot of speed, so great for all those average days. Snappy and fast.

Ride safe,

JB

Had mine for a few weeks now.By far the best board I v ridden. I m 82 kilos 53 and my last board was the hokua 8,3.
Not much difference in stability but much better in performance.

Chris, I've had this board for a few years now - I weigh 95kg - it a fantastic board for dumpy shore breaks - the length (& nose rocker) tolerate steep drops extremely well - I've only ever ridden it as a quad (Naish fins) & have been very happy with the 'skate' type feel they provide. The wood / glass construction is bullet proof - obviously heavier than the 'le' (2014) version (of which I have snapped one board) - but I'm content with the durability & appearance of the 'GT' - fun board!
