Good call Jeff. At first I took mine out in some pretty crap conditions because that's just what we have had. There was one day that wasn't bad though. Like chest high and kind of mushy outside bar to steeper running inside section. It didn't have as much fishy glide as I was hoping. It catches waves fine but I wasn't able to hold a high line like a fish and also felt like I just couldn't get much drive off the bottom to make it around sections. I got a couple waves where I linked a few turns but never felt like I found the sweet spot or really clicked with the board. I eventually came in and grabbed a different board and had a great rest of the session. My hope is that it was just a little too powerful for the board even thought it was only chest high. The board is on ice for now since we have swell and I'll wait for a good small day to bring it back out.
Hey Aruka, thanks for the info and what fins/set up were you using.
I am planning on starting with tri-fin and my Futures Stamps.
Figure a tried and true will be best to baseline.
-although I did just get the NVS C-Drive fins in the mail can't want to see how they feel.
