Just snapped mine in half.As I stated before not strong enough.Great shape etc.



ahhhh, fricken bugger.
was it the board with/without the inserts?
where you riding it strapped or unstrapped?

i tried a wam last year, imo you can't compare the two.
the wam felt like a barge, didnt have a progressive feel (felt very bouncy/skittish) to it through the turn and sat too high in the water for my liking.
like how all the 'composite tech' style of marketed kite-surf boards feel.

just my take on that style of board though...
what are you gonna get next? another Wam?

It was the strapless model.Great board.Ive got my local surfboard shaper on the scene .He is going to make the same board but a lot stronger.I agree about your comments regarding the wam.But I don't have the the money to keep replacing snapped boards.Production boards like the wam and etc are bloody bomb proof.So I have decided to try another glassed board.see how it goes and if I do the same then I will go back to a production board.
