Have been playing around on a new Aboard X series 134 x 39.5. Im an intermediate rider who prefers boards with lots of pop and wow does this board pop. It holds an edge really well with similar construction style to the Nobile 666. Its quite stiff of the water and requires a relatively forceful style to get the most from it. Handles the chop but not as smooth as the Nobile 555 or the Naish Sol. Great on the flatter sections. It has a single concave with sharp ABS rails. Graphics are cool and I'm sure the construction will outlast me. Fins are 35mm and I think I prefer 50mm for my style of riding. After showing a few friend they were impressed with the construction, not your old style methods with a wood core and carbon throughout that you can see through a small window on the top of the board. If you get the chance have a ride, it's a great boards worth a look.
