New sled arrived. 5’9 20.5 x 2.6 36.6L Vesperdia variant with a more effective tail area. I wanted to get something similar to the Bom Dia with some extra width and volume for average days. Pretty stoked! Its flatsville around me this week so hopefully I'll get some rides on it soon. I took a few shots of it next to the 5'9 19.88 x 2.56 Bom Dia for reference. I'm planning to unload this one in the future for a stretched out 5'11 (same width/thickness) of this but it is currently my favorite board. Feels like this new one is going to be the bees knees though
.....trying to line up the tail pad was fun and pretty much hurt my brain

Sick sleds. If its your favorite board, its really good, then dont sell it bro. You'll regret it if you sell it. And I say this from personal experience.New sled arrived. 5’9 20.5 x 2.6 36.6L Vesperdia variant with a more effective tail area.

Selling a fav board that you can still ride might sound like a great idea… until you actually do.
I'm not selling until the new one comes in. Been there done that
I sat on an ”old one” for 3 years and eventually sold my “new one”. Still have the OG.
don’t sell until you’re too fat to ride them.
Yeah, I sold my CI Pod because I was too fat to ride it.
Then I lost weight and want it back.
Difficult question: How much do you like your Lucent, and how much do you use it compared to the other boards?
Seeing the dimension of your Plasmic (mine is 5´3), Matt recommended a 6´4 Vesper, so yours would be around 6´6.
I think that the BomDia needs a wave to work, like the Twinsman RP, but is more user-friendly. For smaller waves, I prefer my Plasmic or my Twinsman AP
What do you want out of the board? I own a BD and have held a Vesper (never ridden), and to me, the BD is more HP than the Vesper. The Vesper that I held was for a bigger guy, so dims were beefier than what I would order, but it still felt overly chunky and I personally didn't like the deep swallow tail. I think they may have redesigned the tail since then though. Would probably be a good point cruiser though.

Lol, your quiver is already too filled with Albums so just buy them both as the cherry on top.
