So I've had a Naish Nalu 11'4 for the past few years. Great fun board and a good allrounder.

I'm now looking at getting a 14' race board for race, ocean, DWs would like it to be fairly stable not sure what to get (budget $2200). So far I have been able to demo the Angulo Shaka (AST only) and Naish Glide and they seem nice but I have nothing to gage from.

Other boards I am looking at are Coreban Alpha (maybe bit tippy in chop?), DC14 (these look sweet but maybe over my budget), Hobie Elite 14' (?), 14' Orca (could be a cheaper option) or Fanatic Fly Race ($?).

Weight = 105kg.

Interested in any feedback on these boards or other models I may be missing.

Thanks.

Let the pimpathon begin.

I pick up a new DC14 early next week, excited about that.

If I wasnt getting a DC14 I would be on the Lahui Kai Orca.

I have paddled both and like them and I guess I like talking to the people that make the boards. With both of these boards you can speak directly to the designer and for my money that is a part of the value of getting a new board.

Who sells DC boards in Sydney?
