Bought one this week after careful deliberation; it's more than worth it. Did all of the things I wanted to do: rides in and behind the white water and catches up to the open face, nose rides so easy it's like cheating, sensations of super fast glide, trims super fast in the tiny surf, can steer from the middle or even from the nose to float sections, goes vertical super quick, feels like gliding and sliding even when riding white water lines. Paddles with glide. Never pearled the nose at all nor on any chop from onshores. No B.S. about this one. It brought stoke and motivation back into my life. Was hooting and giggling first session in super weak and small Cocoa Beach onshore waves.
Just got one and have surfed it 5 times in 5 days in shoulder high glassy waves here on Maui... I agree, this board is a blast! I cannot wait for some overhead winter swells to really test it out!
Picked one up last week.To me paddles like a 9'0. I've been on so many longboards & this board is the fastest I've been on.I can take off at Bowls look down the steep face as its closing fast & pump this board & make it! Can't wait to ride this at Haliewa Alii

I've had it a while now....I dig it man! Nice board
great review. If he made it in XTR i'd be sold.
Get it anyways, man!
Has anyone tried to knee paddle theirs and if so, can you tell me the dim's on your board and approx what you weigh?
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
This board is 9-0 x 23 x 3 @ 66-67 litres. Easy to knee paddle up to about 180 lbs. Doable heavier if you're a good knee paddler.
