I have been banging my head about over a 75ish liter board for a year. just when i think i am there the quad comes out!
both boards are designated wave boards i know. i ride the 86 kode which is more or a freewave shape. i want a smaller board for higher winds.
what are the main performance differences between the kode and quad in straight line speed, carving, planing etc and which conditions are they most suitable to? what does one board "do" better at than the other?
is one of these more suitable to bump and jump?
they both seem to rip!
help..
