Ian from Auswind kindly sent a couple of demos over our way for a 14' speed test we have planned shortly. I took a couple of snaps of the sexy Ace Pro. Video to follow.
And here's how it compares with the Fanatic Flat Water 14' and the Starboard Pierce Touring 14'.
Easier to work out which end is the front than which way is up. One of the guys at RPS suggested they'd put the deck pad on the wrong side.
Before I read your comments, I was thinking along the lines of "two boards in one", kind of like a reversible jacket...A Down Wind Board one way up, and a flat water board the other way up !! ![]()
Nah, in all seriousness, looks like a pretty nice board. Looks fast and light.
Hey Woody,
Are you doing a flat water test with these three boards? are you putting them up against any others?
Look forward to seeing the results, thanks for the nice pics.
Cutting edge looking shape, putting performance over aesthetics.
In all seriousness, how would you kick turn the Ace Pro? It has no rudder and no deck pad aft.

board looks great. can't wait to give it a try.
what mount are you using for the Go Pro on the board?
Looks like you could stand a bit forward of the handle to dig that nose in? seems you're pushing a bit of water...
Hi PT
If you have time would you please make some comments on the Tourning Pierce. I think you might have the first one. Weight if possible? I am more interested in the 12'6" but hearing about the 14 would be great.
thanks,
John
