Another glorious, sunny day, saw the wind building from zero to mid/high teens.

Finally got out on the 9m Edge! Doesn\'t take long to inflate as the struts are so small, and once in the air - fast....! It felt at least as quick as the 7m OR1, and even in the lulls with the wind in single figures, it was easy to generate power by keeping it on the move, and I stayed up wind. Rich was out in his 13m Instinct at the same time, so thats some wind range. Can\'t wait to try it in some higher winds - 25 knots at the weekend please!

mate dont forget you are on a bus of a board.

I beg to differ oh wise one!

My sleek, svelt and totally sexy 666 is merely designed for the more athletic build, its not the wide plank of a corpulant pie-eater's board that some of our lardier chums favour.

Anyway my 9m is blue, so its obvious it would be great.
