Now online..Not much change but i wonder how the two formula boards will compare head to head.

From the website...."These boards are slightly longer but quite a bit thinner through-out, especially in the rail. This makes the board less powerful and much easier to ride.
Keeping up top speed is more relaxed and requires less physical strength. With their extra length they are easier to jibe and more forgiving. "
And yet, if you look at the specs all 6 boards are the same 235cm length. Great proof reading there!!!! In their defence they MAY be talking in comparison to last years boards, BUT if you were doing so wouldn't you mention that at least???
*Edit- I just checked....all last years boards are 235cm also
Nice one JP
Yeah sorry Elmo I didn't see that. Still a bad oversight. And seriously, will 5cm extra length really make that much difference???? That wouldn't even be in the water 99% of the time.
Tried the JP Formula POWER on the week end. Very fast and points up wind like a demon. The deck up front looks very flat and scary, but it glides over the Botany Bay NE chop with no signs of spearing the rolling chop. mmmmmmmmm very nice.![]()
I have the new 108 and it is alot better than last years 112,much easier to ride and faster in the chop,a better board i think.
