Hi guys, I have been offered some used Goya Custom Quad Wave?s 94 L and a 106 L probably built in 2015.
Any idea how they are speed wise in Freewave and bump & jump conditions? My weight is 75kg, Sail size 4.0-5.8m.

Hi Paddlezz,
I have the 104L Goya Custom Quad (mine might be a year or two older). It is a pure wave board and surprisingly nimble on a wave for a big board but it is slow (planes up quite quickly and goes up wind well but has a low top-end speed). It's not made for bump and jump and it feels very big when jumping.
As soon as the wind is strong enough I switch down to my 88L Fanatic Triwave which is much faster, better for jumping, and still wave rides well (I'm about 86kg and use the same size sails).

Goya One is great in bump and jump conditions. Much better than a wave board.

Perhaps the 106 might be a little big for your weight?
quad's (generally) made for waves so if it's bump & jump only then thruster better as have a larger single fin (option) and assuming the goya from 2015 does not have 5 fin boxes anyway?

Agree with above. It's a lovely board but it's no freewave

Goya- Quatro wave boards, are wave boards.

Thanks everyone's comment, you've helped me to put down my pink sunglasses.
Thus I have to wait for a next tempting offer...
