Does anyone have any experience trying both these boards? I don’t need a board, but dancing with the devil of gear temptations and thinking about either a 66l Emissary or 65l Armstrong mid length mk2. (I’m 78kg in bathing suit; intermediate winger). If you’ve had a chance to get on both, what was your experience? “Pros/cons”…I know they are both excellent? Strengths of one over the other as you see it? Thanks.

Plenty of froth for the 65L army

I ride and love the Emissary. With the current sale going on it's impossible to ignore the price difference. I'm 90kg wet on the 66l and have tons of fun with it. Happy to answer any specific questions you may have. I considered the Armstrong and tried to get a demo but the price was too high for me.

dont wanna hijack, but B, have you tried jumping back on yr 65L Pilot Mid for compares since you got the Omen?

I ended up selling the Pilot Mid. The Omen ended up being the winner when I compared them. Not a shocking upgrade, but I think it comes off the water a little easier, foil box is better positioned, hyper stiff. Both are nice boards but I give the Omen the edge for those two unless you are really focused on weight where the Omen doesn't win. My buddy bought the Pilot Mid off me and has been loving it.

Damn those are some good prices on the emissary boards. I've got (what I think is) an issue developing with my super K 2 and I'm a bit nervous that my board will snap in half outside of warranty and leave me swimming... Also tempted to think about maybe getting a 60-ish litre for strong wind days...
