Evaluators said:
“nice shape, good noserider, I liked everything about it”
“nose rides, good speed on the nose, a little stiff on turns”
“wide like a table but doesn’t bog down, very maneuverable and easy to surf”

Summary: Our lightweights and inter/expert middleweights rated it well in surfing. Not good for mid- or heavyweight beginners.  Most common comment: Noserider!
