Are these boards usually durable? Any construction troubles that are common with Wind Obsession boards? ...
... Mistral Eruption (2.57 x 55.5 x 78l). The trouble is I'm a little bit lost among the wide choice of boards nowadays. I think a 70-75 liters wave board type can be Ok (I'm 75kg), but which k...

Looking at a 80 litre Randy French wave.
Any comments, construction, style for West Coast/ Pistol River/Baja type waves ?
It's quite funny reading reviews like that from about 98ish just before the first widestyle boards hit the scene.
Little did those guys suspect, but 70cm fins, 12.5m sails, and 100x250cm boar...
I will have to say that this is not something that we get with the AHD boards, could have been from heat or elevation/pressure damage but not something that is common with AHD. I work with a rental sh...
I am a university student on a budget. I need a smaller board now and am looking at boards around 100 l. Since my cash flow is quite limited, the boards that I have to consider are all older (from mid...
I have two boards - Tiga 270 SLR and Tiga 275 ACR. Does anybody have more information about the exact volume, widht, year of production and so on? Any opinions on a performance of this two boards?
Hi, these boards, tend to go soft and break, are these Custom Flows from 2001 or older boards, e.g. Screamers from 2000 and earlier? Regards Artur
I haven't actually sailed them yet but these boards (actually probabely the 8'4' Naish instead of the 8'3' vs. the 8'2' F2) are on my list for a big waveboard for me...
Interested in learning to shape and build boards. Any pointers for the beginner? Any good books/sources of info? Anyone in the bay area build their own boards?

...9;ve had alot of great sailing on a 7.0. It's not optimum, but it beats having to tote around 2 or 3 boards. Not to mention how much more fun small boards are to turn. I regularly sail 6-7m sails...

bOGO,
Why rewrite the wheel? Can't you just link to the Boards site?

For those that have worked with BIC boards (Veloces), can I use silicone rubber to seal the seam? Our boards weep a few drops at various sites along the seam and there are no obvious cracks or gaps. A...

I recommend deck up, rails down, especially if you are not using a bag, and especially especially if the boards will be sitting out in the hot sun for any length of time. I've seen some nasty rai...
