Hi, there is a 105litre hypersonic for auction here, for US$250. Cheap enough to buy for a laugh, but just expensive enough to ask your opinions first.

My problem: I am 100kg. This means I will be limited to waterstarts, which in turn means it will be a board for medium to strong winds only.

Can anyone tell me if this board will suck for such a heavy guy like me, even when I am in strong enough winds to waterstart?

I should add I already have a Carve 121 which is good for me in lightish to medium winds, so the hyper would be for when it blows properly. Tell me, will I have fun?

Very interested in your responses...
