Hey Guys,
Looking at recommendations for a newer model surf SUP.
Currently on a 128l 9'3" Ripper and want to drop down to around 110 litres.
So many options.
I've tried the Slate and Raptor at around 105l and really missed the glide and easy wave catching that my current board has.
What other models should I look at?

I'm currently riding a naish 8'3. X32 130 liters and just ordered a sunova flow 8'4 by 29 and 3/8 113 liters can't wait will be in Australia mid January but worth looking at the Jp surf range 8'6 113 liters or fanatic 8'4 103 liters

Don't worry about the loss of glide and ease, after some time on a smaller board it will feel just the same but with the benefit of surfing way, way better. Keep the bigger board for when you have a lazy day or it's bumpy. Seriously, both times I went drastically smaller I hated it for about 3 days and after that it was totally fine. Just my 2 cents worth!

You should check out the 8'5" Mana..

The Naish Mana boards have amazing glide.
