Haven't seen one in the flesh (none in stock around my area), but I reckon I'm after something like the Glide 14 GS and after some opinions. I'm 100Kg, not racing just interested in exploring, fitness and downwinders.
Anyone ridden one? are there any differences from previous year models except for looks? What's the price diff between the 2013 and 2014 models?
What about paddles? The default is probably a makani 8.5 vario
Any comments?
Thanks.

I paddled the 2014 14' x 29" Glide at a Naish demo day in Brisbane it is a great board, fast and stable. I currently paddle a 12'6" x 30.5" Fanatic Fly Race and the Glide was a lot more stable. I am 6'1" and 110kg.

OK good to hear. Stable as in less tippy or in terms of lengthwise tracking?
What price were they quoting?

Stable as in less tippy; however it did also track better than my 12'6". They didn't have prices at the time as they weren't available in the country yet.
