Good to see Naish evolving last year's shape rather than coming up with some completely new and untried design. I'm more tempted to buy a design that has gone through a couple of years of development in international races and through extensive user feedback, rather than a totally new design that is not much more than a shaper's best guess as to what will work.

New construction sounds interesting too.

I paddled this at the demo on the weekend. Had plenty of glide and was nice and stable. Havent used it in the bumps yet.

How does the black construction cope in the sun?

It was the 24. I've since paddled the new Falcon in 24 also. Both nice boards. Unfortunately the demos were in flat water. Hoping to borrow the Naish to try it in the bumps.
