Finally got some wind to try this out.The ride is







nice and smooth through the chop and then accelerated well , when in the flatter water.
Very easy to control ,used a 33 vmax fin and a 7.0 sail. (cambered)I felt it maintained its average speed well and picked up a 2 sec peak of 34.66 knts. in a gust.Looking forward to trying with a 6.4 in stronger wind.

I think that the grass in the park could use some work Gav

Hey Gav how does it compare to the iSonics and JPs that you have had ?

The 92 is a bigger board for me ,i think on a par with the others ,but softer and and nicer in the chop (smaller tail),think starboard and jp quicker in dead flat water. conditions,but its the average speed which prob keeps it on par,

Off the subject I know , but do you often sail holding Uphaul and is there a reason your doing it in the pic ?

On upwind courses you get a better angle and you can keep your sail more upright which contributes to speed also ... This is something that came to slalom from formula.

Really, I kind of feel like im being told to grab the long weight from the tool box
But I will give it a go tomorrow.
Also PS , I love the new AHD, looks sweet.
