Just nabbed this never ridden Akila Aipa off Craigslist. Pretty stoked as I’ve had one of his HP twins in the past and it was magic. This one’s a bit different with a slightly wider nose and tail. But also many similarities. Rails felt very familiar as did the rocker and double concave to vee out the tail that was present on my old one. A few more liters than my typical boards (28L) with it at 30L but I think with his foiled rails and rocker it’ll feel spot on.

Board works awesome. Had a few days of small surf in Puerto Rico. Definitely wants a wave with more curve and push but it Groveled decently. Crazy a board over 2.5” thick feels so thin with his foils. Loose and fast. Was a bit too tracky with the Lovelace piggybacks but the TA twins were on the money.
