Hi folks
Just wondering about further feedback on the 9.0?
Have the 9'5 and really enjoying it a lot-it surfs surpisingly well .I intend to keep it.
Looking for something a little more surf orientated,in particular less board to manage on a wave etc, but still able to manage the occasional flat water paddle with my wife if she is on the 9'5.
Considered the hokua but I dont think I need to be that shortboard orientated(will just surf).
My questions are really:
1.Is it 'different' enough to the 9'5 in the surf to be a good second option for better surf?
2.Would it be OK for the odd paddle in flat water with my wife?
I like the naish ranges for there finish,covers,resale etc
BTW I'm 70 kgs.
Thanks for any input

From what you have just written i think the 9'0 Mana will be exactly what you are looking for.

Hey thanks guys
Confirms what I am thinking
By the way i enjoyed the blog NC surfer -found it when I searched the 9.0 mana
Cheers Rod
I have the 9.5 and have paddled both the 9 mana and hokua. The 9 mana is a sweet board and will be fine for flat water and hanging out back. The hokua is also a sweet board but gets a bit tiring after a few hours in choppy conditions.
