My Comments:

The NJS is a 'sweet" raceboard in every way...

Very fast under foot
Lovely to gybe & tack
and the board just sticks to your feet and wants to go fast.

New riders will find this board easier to master than most - but they will find the top end speed very scary until their skills develop into potential this board offers.

Experienced riders - This is super easy to ride - but also a ultra high performance raceboard in plain clothes.

The fins suggested were perfect.

I reckon anyone who already can ride a 70cm raceboard will get alot from this board and anyone wanting to compete seroiusly will get into the Gold fleet unless you stuff up on the day.

This production board will become a " classic" design and will endure for many seasons.
