Great video! Are you still loving this board? Can’t decide between this and the 7’7. Would you recommend the 8’1? Does it feel lighter than other boards this size. I normally ride down to the beach with my board under my arm.
These boards feel kinda heavy tbh, think they are glassed to last and they have a double stringer, but I really enjoyed the feeling of a heavier board going down the line. Hard to say what to go for the 7'7 might be easier to duck dive haha, both would be a ton of fun tho, great board!
As far as I know PE is lighter and will have more flex, I had PU and I think PU is an easier repair and less likely to get waterlogged when dinged. Either construction will be epic it depends on what you want your glider to do, if u sizing up to make it a long big board in ure quiver the weight of the PU is kinda nice to have, more momentum down the line, if ure going for more performance style turns and sizing it in that mid length range maby go with PE?
So many good sessions. Keen to get back to it
Great review! Which fin do you have on the center?

PU or PE construction? Which would be better for a longer length version? Thanks.
