Enjoy,

I'd love the D2 even if it's not really the same old beast but it does look horny. Just the go for this weekends 5- 10K. Wife would kill me though and I don't want to see her go to jail...

The X-Wave will indeed remain unchanged for 2012.

The Curve line is essentially the same, but in an effort to simplify the range, they all come under the same name. Shapes are the same, 11.5", 10.5", 9.5", 8.5" (old minitanker) and the 3 smaller boards are the old 3X range which perform extremely well as light wind wave boards.

In the RS range, the larger two are essentially new shapes, RS5: 230*76cm - 122L and RS6: 230*82 - 134L whent from RS1 to RS4, only slight modifications were done to rocker, rails and wetted area.

The U-Surf Core will have 3 shapes from 70 to 90L as follow:

- 70L - 225*54cm
- 80L - 227*56cm
- 90L - 230*59cm

I love what they did in recycling the 3x and the Konas into one "lightwind" wave sailing line.
Do you know if they updated the FCS side boxes of the longboards to Mini Tuttle , like the usurf3 ?
It would make sense to have the sidefins in MT.
Stronger, light and more practical if you want to switch back to single fin.

I want to buy the Cross IV and S-Cross for the cool graphics.

I've had the late entry 2011 Cross III 114 for a few months. It has all the goods one would need for a one board solution from 12-16 pump to plane flat water blasting to side off with a 5.2 sail. Looking forward to getting the pro edition 2012!

My Exo Wave 105 is probably the best made board I've ever owned. It just seems strong, light, briliantly finished, great pads (almost too soft?!) and good deck grip. It'll be in my quiver until the day it snaps! Oh, and it rides great.

Always interested to see the Exocet boards (because of the above) but would like a quad. Having said that, I'm sure the U-Surf 90 would suit me (and Sydney) well...

Demo?

I hope it is just the camera but if that timber deck doesn't look like it lines up with the mast track etc. That would do my head in if if the deck looked crooked.

A few more pics of the Cross and SCross, just received today.

These will also be up for demo for those who are keen

SCross DT 116:

I wonder why the wood grain is not parallel to the centre line in the two boards pictured here when obviously it is supposed to be as in the brochure photos. I guess the guy doing the layup at Cobra was having an off day.
