I really like this board, it is very fast in the flat and downwinder. In the time trials I got a time of 27:12 over 4.2km on the All Star and my pb on my Ace is 26:37 but that was in no wind, there was about 5 knots yesterday. So the All Star is nearly as quick as the Ace and its a really good downwind board. for 25 inchs wide its alot more stable than the Ace (also 25). This is thanks to the flat instep deck. Have a try on an All Star at Sunshine Coast SUP Fun!!!
