Now that 2008 is getting closer I find it interesting to put a review on my 2007 board that I've been using in all kind of wind and in lot of diferent spots, from Perth (dutchies, crazies, scarbs...) to Maui (hookipa) and of course Margs and Lancelin (couldn't try it in gnaraloo, at that time I was still on the 2006 model)
And the only thing i can say is that i'm stocked with that board ; doesn't matter if it's onshore, sideshore or side offshore, underpowered or overpowered, the board always goes where I want it to go (that means : if I crash, it's my fault, not the board !) ;
when I started to sail on Goya board I was sure that it was Perfect boards for down the line waveriding, now I realize that also in side on shore they are awesome boards, from 3,7 to 5,3 I never felt the board too big or too small, the volume repartition is really good, and the deck has a specific desgin really confortable when going through the waves without planning, tacking or after the jibe
The board comes with a 21cm MFC fin and I believe that it couldn't have been better
in few words : My favorite for WA best wave spots!!
