I'm looking for the 1 board does it all quiver for down here......


This it a touch wider than your 12er 1.5 feet shorter and lighter. Used it today for the first time all the best parts of the old 10 6AA and 12er combined. Turns so well for such a big board the really thin tail helps. This is a classic board. 10-6 Any Kine 10'6″ x 29 3/8″ x 4 3/8 not super stable but that translates into better surfing. Great glide. This will be my go to board in tiny waves and bumpy conditions big and small.

Vacuum bag construction would be lighter and more buoyant but not as pretty.

+1.
I was pleasantly surprised with this board. Very loose off the tail.
I rode the new 9-5AA in the SPSC comp yesterday. Smoking board in the steeper sucky drops. Even managed to snag a set wave from Goatman Now there's a feat!
I believe there is not much these AA's cant do over the rippers and the added stability is a real bonus. They are truly high performance All-rounders. 9-0 AA is the goods for me though in good conditions.

Interested in your thoughts on Wood Veneer construction Hilly. Holding up nicely so far on our demo boards.

As for the new Yeti SB95 - this bike is a game changer in the 29'ers
5.5" going down and tight as a you-know-what when its going up.
Frikkin awesome bike!

Feels much tougher than the old factory construction. No heel dents at all. Very solid under foot. Have not given it a real wack with the paddle yet will soon :) Looks like the rail colour is under epoxy??

High quality finish on the bamboo.

Which one?

9 7 here www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Stand-Up-Paddle/Review/2012-Vacuum-Bag-PSH-9-7-Ripper/

Edit got it the 10 6

Reckon the 9 5 AA might be better with the other 2 you have.

Hilly into page three I am impressed. If I had any idea how to post a piture I would
But for me the Dc 8/4 channel bottom and the dc 8/7 pin gun love it
But they are light weight and they don't like being dropped .
But you get that . The 8/7 is going to get a flogging tomoro north you know that secret spot with the big puddles must have being low tide when you went through .dont take the far left track that's we're I came a bit unstuck for a second
