Hey everyone. I have a question I'm hoping someone here can help with. I live in Florida and am in the market for a new longboard. I came across a 9'0'' Watercooled 2+1 longboard brand new for $399 (us). I've never heard of watercooled before but after a little research heard they are popular in Australia. Trying to find some review on them but have not come across any. Does anyone have any experience with these boards and how do they ride?

Thanks a lot guys

Thanks guys. I went and picked up the board today. There was some small knee high surf this afternoon so I got a chance to try it out. I think I'm going to like it.

Here she is.

Looks great, should go well..Not sure about the noseriding, looks a bit narrow in the tail but will turn great..Try it out with an 9" single fin and lose the sidebites and see how it goes..Happy surfing..

Ya it turns much easier then the 10' BIC that I had been riding. The tail is a lot narrower then my buddies 9' Waldon. I'm just getting into longboards. Up until now I'd only had shorter ones but I really think I'm going to enjoy this board.

It came with a 7.5" and 2 sidebits. I'd been reading different setup between the single fin and the 2+1 setup. Also reading up on how far forward or back to set the middle fin. I'll have to pick up a 9" and try the single fin setup also.

Thanks for the info.
