there good upto 25kts/ head high... then they get a bit of a handful after that, probably cos of the wide ass tail.... so for 90% of the time they are sweet.....the rest of the time I use a pintail.
never have probs getting mine (fish86) on the plane, ever and i'm 90kgs.
i seem to keep up with other wave boards maybe a tad slower, but the thrusters will give you an extra 10 deg pointing
great on jumps and thin rails good for the ride. may have to offset back strap if you are light on.
best point is that there a piss of piss to get on the wave in marginal conditions....also if you muck up on a section there very forgiving and normally can get u back on.
worst point ..yeah suppose there a bit slow,
espically getting to the lip, mind u that could be just me ..i'm a newb and it's my new yrs res to drive it harder .....
oh yeah and the footstraps are ****.
yeah 07 boards WILL be better but i only paid $450 for mine in mint and a newby will set youu back 5times that. which will be good for you, if yer like me poorboy.......
mind you after saying all that i wouldn't say no to a new board santa
i've been good.
ahhh i suppose those thieving *&*#$* ######### in cash conv have still got yer acid!?!?!?!?
