10'1" x 30" x 4"
Have had this board for a week and have surfed it 5 times in small, clean and also larger lumpy conditions.
I am so impressed by the way it surfs. Very stable and catches anything you want.
Direction change while standing near the nose is easy and nose riding is particularly stable. Transition from back to front and back again presents no unwanted surprises.
Turning off the tail is exceptional, and cutbacks feel so natural, with the board maintaining momentum right through the turn.
The back third of the rails has quite an edge and there is plenty of drive when looking to make fast sections.
"Nimble" would be my one word description.

There is concave but reasonably subtle.

Very nice. I have been contemplating waxing my next Deep board, but have read some negative comments on waxing SUPs. What's your thoughts?
Such a shame to cover such sweet art........

Wax is good for the first few surfs but you'll get over it and topping it up on a 10 foot board. If you have a dark color car forget it during summer. A good option is 2mm 3M backed EVA. It would be a shame to a nice tint or carbon work.

I'm a bit torn Brenno...........I'm using wax on my minion with no probs and like the feel you get on this board. I have ordered a deck pad but still not sure whether it will be used or not.
