I've been a surf bum for better than 40 years, This is one of the funnest surf craft I've been in, on, under, whatever. You can really surf the thing, none of this take off hit a hard turn spin out and bounce around in the soup stuff. Rather, take off, make your turn, and get on down the line. I finally added fins to mine. HOT DAMM!!!! now I can hang on the wall like a cockroach, crank turns off the bottom straight up to the lip, into a cutback and repeat. I'm not sure where the limits of the boat are. You NEED one.

Ralph has used my comments comparing the boat to some of the boards I've ridden on his site
