Hi Roger,
Serious About Waves #1. About 35 minutes into the film.
Even on much bigger boards, I find it tricky to tack if the wind is very low and the water is choppy.

Hi Roger,

I...

Andy, once practicing at shallow water, you may want to try to improve the low-wind gybe too. When tacking, the board can come to a complete halt or even sail backwards. The board gives you the least...

Thanks all, bought the Shark 135, hope it will work for me as intended. Missed the wind by half an hour when the board arrived and no wind for at last a week. Found though that I can uphaul on this...

Thanks Remi. I am more or less covered for the “8.5” days. I am now looking to expend to the days I can’t sail at all. A 115-125 is probably better, but I am not quite ready. My bet is that 135 will...

I see what you mean about the width. It would have been nice to have more volume if it can handle the same chop, I can uphaul at 140. The importer doesn’t have 2010 Carve though; a 2011 is about...

I am 120kg, looking for a board for gusty 8-16m/s choppy sea. Priority no 1 is early planning, no 2 is handling chop.
These boards are available for almost immediate delivery and I have to chose...

If you are lightweight, talented and only sail at the perfect spot, you don’t need it. Manufacturer’s info and magazines-reviews tell you all you need before you buy a new board.
