Hello friends, wow....
Last 4 days we have been hitting Hyatt reef, a wave that frankly I thought was too much to handle for us.
But I was wrong!!! See the images and judge by yourself.
Also starring our local Hero Oka Sulaksana (Top Indonesian Windsurfer for the last 15 years) on his 2nd day on a SUP!!! He is already showing the difference between a real champion and us common mortal.
Myself I was amaze considering that I'm not really a surfer!! I was catching the biggest waves ever without a kite or a sail.

Ciao DJ,
as I wrote in my previous post with my review the first day was a shock.
But now I found it amazing! I'm in love.... Specially when there are good and powerful waves.
I'm not much of a surfer so my experience is limited but this board really shine in the right conditions.
It is small and tippy, you can never really relax and always have to keep balance.
When is a bit raft is kind of a pain! With my 70 kilos it does paddle in flat water decently, I can keep up with my friends on the Mistral that is a much bigger board.
End of next week the Starboard shipment will arrive and I hope to be able to make a comparative test with all the boards around.
Bye Jankie
