Evaluators said:
“Turns good; nose rides sweet; a little tippy”  (Intermediate Male 190 lbs.)
“Easy to catch waves; speeds up well; not easy to balance–great intermediate/advanced board”  (Beginner Female 140 lbs.)
“Great for noseriding! Turns good; little tippy; would be better in big waves”  (Advanced Male 210 lbs.)
“Beautiful to ride; smooth longboard feel; fast–holds rollers until they break; excellent acceleration; races down the line; and easy to catch swells”  (Intermediate Male 170 lbs.)
“Easy to get to the nose; feels just like a Takayama longboard (awesome); a little tippy for a 10’7″ but who cares”
“Too tippy for small waves–let’s take it to some big ones–I’ll ride it!  Easy to turn, narrow”  (Intermediate Female 150 lbs.)

Summary: Highly rated by all testers for surfing.
