Severne Glide 8.5?

[filipl]

Hi,

I now have the Severne Glide 7.5 and I´m very happy with it, especially its light weight and its early planing power. I´m thinking of getting a Glide 8.5.

Has any one tried the Glide 8.5 and can say how it compares to the Glide 7.5?

Does it feel like a scaled up version of the Glide 7.5 with proportionally more bottom end power?

I´m specifically interested in its high end. When, in how many knots of wind, does it get backhanded and hard to control?

Thanks,

Filip
