Which Board?

Guest · 22nd April 2007, 02:41 PM

Not sure which way to go, Have only one board, a '03 fanatic cross100 and sails of 4.7, 5.3 ,6.0 and a 7.0, this set up enabled me to have just the one board but when she blows 30+ i hangin for dear life on cross and she takes off on me a hell of a lot, Sooooo any suggestions on what ishould do, Buy a cheap 75 - 85 ltr board for the highwind speed days or trade her in on a modern 80-90ish litre board as i enjoy the higher wind sailing a lot more and get a120 litre board and maybe a bigger sail later? or another modern board with a bigger range.
Most enjoy flat to choppy blasting and gps speed sailing so was thinking of an SType 93 ( can i put all my sails on this one). any help or advice would be appreciated

cheers Lenny

Hi Lenny,
the 93 S-Type should be a great choice. The comment of Kevin Pritchad on the board: If you ar going to be blasting around with your friends, jumping and having fun go with the Stype. I am an Stype fan and the 93 is a great summer Kanaha board in my opinion.

The comment in the actual test in the German SURF: a fast, direct, "Freeride-Freerace-Hybrid" board with greta control and excellent jibing qualities, a borad for sporty freerider and speed blaster

and if you really plan to go super fast, just take a sailsize bigger , enjoy it
