Never really enjoyed down wind paddles , but today converted me. I usually spend more time in the drink than on the board so I took my psh 12,6 instead of my 14 fanatic and only fell off twice , had some awesome long runs , it really makes a difference on a stable platform.I went from Kirra to Currumbin in a flash and caught a bommie way outside the rock into Laceys at the end.Ive caught the bug

Do you think the 12 is a better bet then the 14 as far as dw goes?

Or is it the board.

I just found the 12,6 way more stable , if a 14 was as stable probably would be better again , my 14 is a flat water board! The PSH is by no means a fast board but more than makes up for it in surfability and comfort.

Amazing conditions. The wind was gusting at 32 knots! Copped a hideous thrashing coming in at Talle surf club but well worth it!

Kinda thinking I missed something here.

Had a pretty good hangover, while you guys were surfing at sea I was surfing the sofa...
