Looks good Tardy. The only problem is when do you use the spx. Lol

Hadn't thought about that , 3 x surf SUPs is a great number I'm looking forward to getting the kanga in bigger waves ,

it is more of a gun compared to the SPX ,it has a nice glide on the wave ,the SPX recovers quicker after a turn .it doesn't loose
as much speed ,

Great to see the new stick getting wet. How does it compare to the flow ???

Lol. Yep, I have the same problem myself. The 8'8 sp25, 8'5 infinity RNB, 9'4 Hobie CM pro. Love them all. And that's the only reason I'm not getting the 8'10 Ghost. I'd have to part with one. Lol.
Happy surfing Tardy.

Yes it was a long wait but now its wet ,two totally different boards Dave ,The flow is a bit faster and more free on the wave and feels a lot shorter .The Kanga feels longer even though only 1 inch longer ,but it is narrower and the rounded rails is a totally different feel than the trimmed down flow rails ,The Kanga feels almost like a mini long board to me .its only my second surf on it ,but I feel it is going to be liking slightly bigger waves ,the kanga is a rounded pin so first off I had to down size the fins I was using ,even the ones I have on in the vid I feel I will go smaller on the rears ,it is quite nice on choppy faces and Bumps and paddles out through waves so easy ,nose rocker is low but never felt like diving , the flow is quite flat bottom ,and does slap a bit but it never looses speed the kanga has a double rear concave so forgiving and a bit slower ,but no means slow ,it took off on a big set wave .

The flow is a more dynamic board and snappy ,Kanga is forgiving and a more straight forward board ,I would of flicked off a few of those waves but the Kanga just was just happy plodding along till the wave was nothing .,Its pretty smooth ,

everybody who sees it just has to touch its ,its such a nice finish .well done to the boys at the Sunova factory .its almost a wall hanger
in a pub .nah its a surf board .It is similar to my 9,1 acid I had ,but better in some ways .so it fits into the quiver nicely .3 boards now
8'7 ,8'8, 8.9
I don't feel I need bigger or smaller anymore ....for a bit anyway
