Has anyone riden a JP All Ride? I am an intermediate sailor, currently own a 139L Starboard Go, looking for something a bit smaller for use in the bay and inverloch. Looking at the 106L All Ride, seems like the best choice at the moment, but not many reviews out there... any thoughts?
Don't know the 'all ride' but have a 2009 JP 110 Xcite Ride that I love. Great speed (for me) plus ability to control it in most winds. I am 70 kgs and 60 years, I can keep up to most of the guys around here (except for the pro speedsters). Would throughly recommend it!!
Cheers
I did have a chance to try out a brandnew All Ride 106 pro in Jeri, Brasil last november.
like the Excite ride instant plug and play board but a bit looser on the water.
Very stable through the chop and plenty fast.
Could be a good second board for you. With two fins you will be able to use it as a fast freerider and with a wave fin 27cm could do well in moderate waves. But don't expect to much of that.
I also have RRD freestyle/wave 111. This is the best board for learning better jibing and will take sails from 7.3 to 5.0 with ease. Very controlable board in the chop.
Not as fast as the All Ride!
