Finally got my dacurve out in the waves. about head high side-off stuff. Only problem was that it was soooo windy, could hardly hold on to my 4.0. It was also 1c air and water about 3c, i was alone and the break a little far out so i wasn´t feeling super safe out there so i just had a few runs. But man that beast can turn!! a lot more difference from my old evo than i was expecting. I have a good feeling about this board. here are pics of the first waves i managed to ride on the dacurve.

Finally got to try the board out in conditions that were not too windy so i managed to try it out properly. Sailed a spot that has not been sailed before, waist to shoulder high and about 4 turns on a wave with marginally powered 5.0. Here is a Pic of my friend coming in when the waves had gone messy because of high tide, then he gets an electrical shock of one of the fences and looses his sail that goes flying
I would say i agree with what has been said before, takes a little effort to get it on a plane but once there it stays there a lot longer than my old single fin. On the wave there is no competition A LOT OF fun riding it, makes me feel like i´m a better sailor than i am with snappier turns and more spray then on my old single fin Great session, Love this board!!
