I have not surfed this desing yet but it has most of the great things I have seen in other desings. My only concern with this desing is that it may have to little volume in the stern.

good -> extream kick in the bow, good pearl recovery like infinity wave skis.
good -> very pronounced hard rail cut back on the top, like the mako extream.
bad?? -> low very thin stern, like dick wolds boats. Sometimes when you are taking off the wave will cacth the stern and spin you 45 degrees off your track.

Sorry for any spelling mistakes, this confuser has nothing with spellcheck.
