Hi guys,

I've been to Bali and got a full two weeks with riding it!

Now, it's not easy for me to write an review but in a few words it handles small chop magically since very flexible.

It a wobbly board and for me being 59kg this is actually better. I have a bad knees (43yo) and landing is so soft like a butter. Was a bit worried about braking it but no problem at yet.

Also, having rounded tips there is no spray what so ever. Tested my Nrth XRide at the same time and spray was significant, actually can't ride it any more.

It also goes upwind like crazy. You need to drive it with your legs I would say more than XRide, Shinai (that's the name of it) being more flexible. What I noticed is that for going upwind it doesn't really matter how big the fins are. When I flatten the board than it matters and also with 1" fins can't ride it toe side. Need bigger fins for that.

This was on light Bali wind and can't say how will perform in stronger winds.

good to here your board works well db. Don't worry about it snapping. it wont, bamboo is very strong and very flexible.
