Matt knows how to design the right board for what your needs and goals are; I told him my level, as my current challenges and how I was desiring to ride.
(I was present so he was able to see my size and take that into consideration to best customize the size and shape of the board).
The best board I've ever had! and although I didn't quite believe him when he had said (regarding it's versatility) I wouldn't need another board, I now have experienced that to be an accurate statement :)
Upon first viewing, in full transparency, I was a little concerned as I thought it was too narrow for my skill level; but it's actually exactly what I needed.
Even in the initial paddle out, I could tell a difference and that this was going to be a great board! ..and it is!
It took me about 9-12 sessions to get acclimated to the shorter length,
but even during that curve I was catching more waves. Fun board! Great board, and nice looking board!
Matt was right (on all counts); I need only this board :)
Trust him; he knows what he's doing! read more
