more details from the German Surf Magazine Review on the carve 111 -

i think they liked it!

It now delivers super sporty jibing qualities. The extraordinary top speed still exists (10 points out of 10), but pimped with a tingling splashy feeling while sailing. "Light and lively" are the key-descriptive adjectives for the new CARVE 111. Especially a sporty sailor will have a lot of fun on this board.

The jibe line can be changed at any time during the turn, so any type of jibe can be executed. The name "carve" is absolutely true for the pretty looking, fresh designed board. "Get your board on the edge, let your body fall inside and drive inside the turn with full speed! " No other board can compete with the CARVE 111 in this test-group.
