So the new toys have arrived
Only ridden the board once so a bit early for a decent review but one things very clear, its very different to the twin fin and a very capable wave board. hows those concaves....




ice sails are the expected North quality out of the bag and looks like wind this weekend then off up north for some proper testing

would be great to hear more detailed opinions on this board.

in my experience the fanatic wave shapes tend to be very early planing and quick, having sailed an older newwave single, the 09 twin and comparing it against my jp twin. but not sure about the quad due to the serious amount of tail kick its got?

I still have my 2010 86 lt twin fin and there was no noticeable difference in speed just very different turning characteristics. my understaning is the deep channels are there to maintain speed given the extra rocker which seems to have worked.

I think Fanatic and North have nailed their designs this year (as in graphic). That combo looks the goods.

Chris, you may need to change your nickname to quad man. You were going real well the other day on the 4.7. Seemed more radical and season is only getting underway.
