EVo or Acid for 4,7 weather in Denmark - Page 3

Hi Ola. Here's some feedback. I tried the Evo 2008 70L today. I went out in a little overpowered 5,2 condition, fin 22cm. I were possitively surpriced with up and planing away with greath speed in no time. The board really flowed through the impact zone like magic. Out behind in the choppy mess - and much more overpovered - the board where easy to controle and gain some hight with. In the jibe the board both keept controle and speed at the same time. Back in the impact zone - both front side and back side riding were super smooth and controled.

Greath board and a very good advice to go with the 70 liter version. After the first couple of hours on the water I can only find one thing - the front footstraps are very narrow/ thieght - even if I have put them as loose as possible. Would you have any advice on how to open them up further?

I wounder if I will ever be back on the 80L again :-)

Yours Lars W.

Thanks for that good piece of feedback. Some people find the 08 straps a bit tight, yes. Usually they will open up easier after some use. To speed up the process you can "massage them", the pull them open and repeat a few times.
