Ah... The 92 GLobal....
I'd seen this little beauty in the shop and had been lusting after it for ages as it's one of the best looking boards I've seen - great graphics and a bamboo deck!!! What's not to love? Surprisingly it stayed on the shelf, I'm guessing because there aren't many mag reviews of it!??! Anyway, turned out I needed a light wind waveboard (see my RTQ review!) and the shop needed room for more new gear! WIn WIn

First impressions - I wasn't quite sure what to expect as its quite an unusual shape, very stubby, parralell rails, wide tail, conservative rocker... well it's actually brilliant to sail and perfect for what I intended. it's very easy to use, very fast - so great for jumping and the wide tail takes a larger sail size (5.7ish) happily and actually somehow makes it feel smaller. The thruster setup grips very well so it'll crank upwind but it also turns on a relatively tight radius, gybing beautifully or sailing on onshore or smaller waves. In fact small waves are brilliant fun, it'll pick up on the merest hint and accellerate away or stay riding at low speed.

....and when you're finished with your small wave session you can crack a beer and just gaze lovingly at your beautiful board
