I was lucky enough to get to demo the new 9'6 and 11'4.
Just a quick review even though i didnt get to surf on them, because the surf was still solid 5ft, didnt want to wreck a demo board.
But i think the 9'6 is very stable maybe even more stable than the 10'6, Very responsive doing kick turns. A few guys in the 90 kg and over range were demoing it and they seem stoked with it as they thought a shorter SUP wouldnt float them.
The 11'4 is a great looking board, i think it would be a great entry board for sumone that picks the sport up quick and wants to surf it. At 30" wide very stable and i was trying some freestyle like those crazy french man on it and it was very responsive as well.
If u want to view some photo's from the day they are in the slideshow on this page www.kitesurfinggoldcoast.com.au/

Thanks to Ang and jacko had fun on the new boards today the 9.6 is the pick of the new boards I am going to pick one up for sure.
I will be getting a 9.6 to put in my quiver at 92 KG it is still a very stable board it is worth a try.
