My most frequently used board is a 2004 JP Super X 82L, I use is with 5.6-4.6 sails and find it is a great all around board which is super fast. My problem is for me at 69kg or 145lbs it is a rough ride in choppy waters like Crissy, 3rd or Rio and becomes a real handful to gybe. Has anyone used the 2006 86l version and seen any difference in its handling? I would love to keep the speed, range and planning ability but have a board which is easier to gybe and ride through chop.
Cheers |

Most guys our size who are into going fast and jumping high use the FSWs for its easier handling and smoother ride....especially if youre inclined to sail Crissy-Sherman-3rd ebbs.
Probably faster when powered on ebb tides, FSW just does everything nicer....for SFBay sailing, anyways. |
