Fanbatic Falcon 152 and Exocet RS7

[joethewindsufa]

I have always had an interest in the Fanatic boards..
Have Fanatic Ultra CAT longboard from around 1990.
This is a true FUN longboard, but the market is too small
for Fanatic to revive the race version - MEGA CAT.

I also have a Fanatic BEE LTD 124 from around 2000.
As a heavyweight in a light wind area, i barely get to use it.

My windsurf buddy has a 2010 Fanatic Hawk 135.
It is a bit fragile, but flies !!!

Now in 2013 Fanatic has released the Gecko.
This is apparently a freemove board to compete with the RRD Firemove.
They are short, wide , thin, narrow tail early planing and manouverable
boards.
Interesting boards, but i am waiting to see how these do...

What surprised me was, I discovered there is a Falcon 152 with 90 cm
width. This goes in direct competition with the SB US and Exocet RS7.
Unfortunately i find little information on either of these boards - Falcon 152 and RS7
Anyone have any experience with either ? and how they compare ??

Joe,

There can't be many people that have sailed the Falcon 152 yet as it is brand new for 2013. I don't think any of the shops even have them yet.
