novenove chameleon 5xch 2017 versus fanatic triwave/grip

hi everyone,

I can get a very good deal on a brand new 93 novenove chameleon 5xch from 2017. However i have no experience with novenove. In one of de older posts it was briefly suggested it is similar as the fanatic triwave. I have sailed the 95 triwave before and liked it very very much (but can't find one second hand). I'd like 'to make sure' before i buy the chameleon since i can't test it.

p.s.: I do not like the fanatic stubby model: or maybe it's my lack of technique ;). I sail in the north-sea.

Thanks for any feedback on this,
kind regards
Nicolaus

Thanks Nicko,

That was the post i read . The review talks more in debt in comparison with JP and only briefly mentions the same shape as the triwave. So i'm curious for more info.

I've got a review of the 85 newer model. It's in German though. Maybe you can get it through the google translator and get something out of it. My german is only so so. The review mentions that the shape remained the same as the previous model:
