After the fun morning session the wind came up, so the new race board got tested. Here it is. 27 3/4 wide x 4 3/4 thick. More stable than board number 1. More rocker than board number 1. It felt perfect in the 18-20 mph wind today. I caught many runners and two really long rides. Both of my best runners came when spinning the ball, as taught by Todd Bradley.
You should try your race board #2 to surf the waves in your video. I've had some of the best surf sessions on my 14' and 12'6" in glassy small wave conditions. The length of the board gives it a new challenge to turn and you can catch the wave forever. It also feels like the board speed is faster on the long boards. Not sure if that's the case but that's what it feels like.
