Yes I have one but not ridden yet due to average condition of my knee.

Looks the business with really nice rocker and foil.

Will be good for up to just overhead waves and bumpy days I am hoping. The stability of 31" will be needed coming back from knee injury. Good weight.

Hope to ride soon will update

Only ridden mine once in really small crappy waves,it seemed to go as well as could be expected.Paddled well,stability was really good,and the couple i got with a bit of face,it turned pretty ok.Will give an update when i can get some decent waves.

Sounds about right at 31 wide rail to rail is not going to be startling.

Should be stable though

Had my first paddle today. Shoulder high very windy.
Really impressive board. Bit of yaw with the width and running small quads. Once used to that all good nice and responsive for it's width.
Thin tail helps and the v in the back third aid rail to rail transitions.

For what I got the board for it is ideal; up to head and a half lumpy bumpy fat waves. The acceleration through the cutback is a highlight

Hey hilly thanks,more or less how much do you weigh? As I'm wondering if the board will float my 220 lbs? Have you tried it as a thruster yet? PBD

108kg about 235lb heaps of float but I am pretty experienced. Normal board is a 9 9 Mano.

Have not tried as a thruster. Whacked my knee so may be a while.

Pitbull, i tried mine out in some decent 3 footers last week,first surf in some decent waves.This sup turns much better than i expected due to the width,and was really good down the line.I'm running quads at the moment,but i will be looking try out a thruster set up soon,i just get the feeling it maybe the better option.I'm about 88-90kg and really bought this sup due to neck and shoulder probs,and to give me some rest from 9ftr,but for a big guy like you i think it's plenty of float,4 3/8"s is still pretty good with the 31 width so you should be able to apply some real rail and tail pressure.Goodluck and lets know how you go.cheers.
