Nice one Sanjay. 09.21 not sure what to do. 09.45 f**k it i'm having it. I've got the 135 and love it.

Spot on :-)

You just forgot: 9.55 S**t wonder if it's the right board, maybe I should have demoed it first :-))

Flat, fast, you need weight and power to tame it, but at 95kg sounds like you are good to go..?!

Flat is good for the purpose. It is supposed t be the board I use when I cant ride on my smaller board presently a Hadlow 138x40. Then I would hope this flat 137x44 will make the difference as I dont want some door type board. I ride unhooked and attempt some freestyle always.

Thus when it gets to much I would change to a smaller ride with more rocker.

 

I hope it fulfill the purpose as a 15/18 knot freestyle board

So upwind is god right ?

I should be at 137x44 with flat rocker? Otherwise I am stock with a 2010 board

sounds right up your street - very early planing and very good upwind! Lots of pop, it is very good for lightwind freestyle...

Rode the 133 a while ago and liked it a lot. Didnt think it was that flat myself, nice concave and rocker. Good in waves, great pop. Pads are good too.
