What size is yours Kelvin (if thats not too personal a question!). Apparently mine has 73 litres (despite being called a wave 75), and
certainly feels really small. The tail is really narrow which makes it feel really twitchy, and its max width is ony 52.8cm.
I had a nother session on it today in pretty meaty waves, and it just loves to smack the lip really hard.... I'm beginning to enjoy it,
but it was only just powered up in 25 knots with a 5m today, so it probably won't get on the water quite as much as the Mistral
Heat.

At least it will last you a while then, and its still good to have just the right board for those conditions anyway.

Inspired by Als recent spending spree , picked up a F2 8' 2'' last week . Got to use it Sunday and its a little cracker , the reports
of "scary fast " that i,d been given by a few owners of them dont ring true ,shure its a fast board as it rides lively on fin , but
from my experience so far its great .
