I made this video a year ago, but didn't want to pigeon hole the Ghost as only a Big Guy board, because it is not.
However, it is an amazingly stable and very capable performance board in the bigger Sizes.
I have sold many to first time SUPsters who learned to paddle on it, then had successful transitions to the surf.
Super glad that I made the film before I joined the "Skinny Kid Surf Team" because it would be a gigantic board at my current weight of 79 kg (176 lbs)... but I will make a followup video of me riding it again soon, at the current Guild factor of 2.14 to show it's versatility.
Hi Rick
How would you compare the Ghost & Creek?
Apart from the obvious forward fin placement, 5 fin option etc. looks like Creek has more rocker + better in juice, Ghost better in less power & more stable? Is there any difference in outline/shape?
cheers
Funny you mentioned choppy Rick, over here I think we would call it reasonable clean, youre very lucky to have waves like this

You are correct Saya Suka, the Creek is better in bigger juice.
They both surf totally different and share no relationship similar design features outside of the rounded Diamond tail, and neutral nose shape.
The Ghost is much wider size for size, with a small bump down in the rail at the front fins.
The tail of the Ghost is flatter, with very hard rails for instant release and speed in low power waves. There is a sexy snap out of a turn on the Ghost, that gives instant acceleration.
The Ghost is much more stable size for size... Lets look at two side by side
Creek 9'1 x 31.1 at 136 liters
Ghost 9'1 x 32.5 at 149 liters
Excellent quiver with just the Ghost and Creek, you have almost everything covered very well!

The goPro flattens out chop but you are on track, since I rarely surf any kind of onshore chop.. on Cape Cod I am blessed with prevailing offshore winds, so when in Florida I do something else when it is really choppy 
It is a big board , but I can see it surfs really good , might be just the surfer ?
