What's it like compared your 8'7 placid ??

You make this board look so cruisey Rick! It becomes a beast in some solid conditions!

ha ha.... these are the conditions I have for the winter, I was glad just to get a session where I could sort of surf.
I am hopeless in small wonk.

I have found a break a few hours from me, where I hope to get a solid session on this board, to let me explore it's potential a bit more.

Cant wait to see your review on it. I have been loving the board lately its really fun.

have been playing around with the fin set up on my 8'8...finally got it in some juice at a near by break last week. I had been running large quobba fins as a thruster initially. First swapped out side fins for some C-Drives.....awesome great hold and drive. Next day tried as a quad C-Drives in front and small quobbas in rear. The surf was bigger clean and fast, I found the quads perfect and again it had great hold and this set up seemed to complement the rails of the board. Looking at the GPS info from my watch I was getting consistent speeds of low 30's klmh, the board didnt lose any of its 'sureness' underfoot and gave so much confidence even on late take offs. The Flow V2 makes a fat old bloke feel like hes charging like a grom!!!!

I just hope I'm surfing that well when I'm 72 years old!

I am humbled.... thank you Casso!
You will be ripping as hard as ever at 72... you are fit and stay very active.
72 is the new 50

STC, I'm with you! At 73 I'm so lucky to still be able to surf. My dodgy shoulder meant my prone surfing days were over but then ... along came Sups!
So many waves and so little time . Cheers, Jimbo
