Hi all,

I'm after some opinions on the Hobie boards.
I've got the opportunity to buy a 9'6" Hobie. My ideal board, if price tags played no part, would be a McTav Fireball.
I realise it's a bit hard to comment specifics without more info/pictures. I'm just after general comments about the brand/quality.

Cheers

Just like any other board, If it suits your height, weight, style, level of ability and the places you like to surf, it will be a winner

If "no" to any of the above, it's performance will diminish, directly proportional to the number of "no"s

But in general, I don't recall Hobie making too many duds.
