I seen this advertised here and it seemed an absolute bargain so I got it. $1300 Delivered with a quality board bag. The Coreban TURBO charged space ship contraption thingyTook it for a spin this afternoon , first impressions will take some getting used too , Very fast board takes a bit to get it going but once you do it is very easy to keep at speed. Quite tippy for 26 wide but found it fine as I have been riding a 23 wide board for a while now. Its a little heavier than I thought it would be , better suited to a heavier rider. At $1300 bucks for a full carbon board I cant believe it was for sale for so long. Looks good on my car too

Good luck with that thing TT.

One of the SUP schools in Noosa had a demo for a while and they were taking bets on who could stay on it the longest.

It sure is a specialised piece of gear and in my opinion is difficult to master. Unlike Lacey's suggestion I would leave the side fins in, because if you take them off there will be even less stability.
These things are almost a twin hull, they are very fast but take a lot of effort to be comfortable on.

Good buy though at the price. Good luck with it.
