Anyone help me decide which one to buy? Both boards received great reviews.

I sail mostly in bump & jump & some onshore conditions so looking for a hi-wind/wave board for those honking days 5.5 & smaller. I weigh 194lbs/~88kgs.

Any other board suggestions welcome- Thanks, G

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. I'm 25 kg lighter than you, so the intended range of use is completely different (mainly 5.0-5.8 wave sailing but must work as a single board for wavesailing destinations. ). But, although i'll have to use the board in small surf or on flat water as well, they got my focus because these seem to be real waveboards instead of high-wind b&j boards. Not so sure wether they are really great when it's honking. Possibly just too loose and squirrelly on one side and not enough planing power on the other one (something a rider who doesn't sink the boards like a stone hasn't to worry too much about).
