I have just spied one of these in the shop and they look kinda nice. I was thinking of a Mana 9'5" but after seeing this board I am thinking that this will be a much better option for me. Has anyone surfed one of these puppies before? I know they are new but thought I would ask just incase.

I have recently tried the 9.0' * 30" stinger but its just a tad short on volume for me sadly (marginal) - will make life too difficult when the wind / chop gets up. Yes I am soft...................

Thanks.

Hey Ted,
Do yourself a favour and demo one, you won't be dissappointed.
Mines a keeper

A young guy here has a 9 x 30 stinger. He had a bash on my 9 x 33 this morning and was impressed with it in smaller mushy crap that we had this morning. His quote as he exit the water " I think I've bought the wrong board"

Can't comment on the Mana but I'm pretty sure it would go ok as well.
A previous thread said the Mana surfed bigger waves better than the Hero. Thats great if you are lucky enough to have head high every day.

DEMO both.

HAAK
