This Vid is not even half as good as a DJ vid.

Hey folks,

Im sick to death of seeing DJ post all these lovely vids of sunny windy DW vids, cruising some lovely windy waves with great camera angles (insert sarcasm font here).

What I think you really want to see is some Down under Dirty water over cast 25knt downwinders with terrible Cam angles and full wetsuits!

like this one. Although I do think im the first to Vid and post a NSP 14x 26 in use...... correct me if im wrong.

so here goes

That was great.. I love seeing other peoples DW vid... The conditions looks good..

Also interesting to see how the new NSP/DC resists pearling.. The board looks nice..

Thanks Dan? I enjoyed that, that DC 14 sure submarines well looks like you don't have to worry about the nose not surfacing.

One negative comment though from me. That music was awful.

Thanks again. ET.

Can't please every one and If i put JJ cale on there Dj would sue me for using Music from his collection.

No dissing JJ he was the man!

Thanks for your comments folks, the waves were pretty short period, and getting back quick was the key but then it was a nice little balancing act between coming off the back and plowing into the one if front, Love every minute of it!

Wow that board looks amazing. I have been paddling the NSP/DC 12'6 for a few weeks now and love it for every condition, but seeing this has got me very excited for my new 14 to arrive! Thanks for the Vid awesome conditions, we had 30kts today in Adelaide so I'm still pumped from my paddle!!!

arrr 30 KNTS sounds like heaven!!!!

Yup bigger swell or a longer fetch before we get in would have the board humming along really well, It was only hampered a little by the shorter swell period, anything bigger and therefore longer would be just insane!

The board turns well. You can bury the nose pretty good too, but it does slow you down a bit.

The most surprising thing about the board is how mush speed it holds from runner to runner. Once I got tired it slowed but it can link runners very nicely.

Hopefully more to come!
