Any live feeds?
LoL just watched the pre -race interviews for the distance race , boothy calling for Connor to be DQ for unsportsman like conduct. He is obviously so good in part to his competitive nature and will to win , not the first time he may have crossed the line Adds a bit off spice to the Euro tour. Fanatics new board looks good , cant understand why they don't do a dugout though.

I reckon its because every other brand seems to. They are offering something different in the market.
2017 strike looks a little more user friendly from what I have seen.

was a good race I watched it live.
Rubbing is racing , Boothy did blow up, they are travelling together too wonder if they have left it on the water or not

Seen the new strike today and it looks awesome. It sits so low in the water that I don,t see the need for a duck out.

It's a shame that Connor use these antics to win races. And I can't understand that Starboard or any other brand keeps sponsoring him.

Let's not forget Connor was DQ last year in this same race (in the sprints), unsportsman like conduct once again. And let's not forget when he tried to push down Kai Lenny in the 2014 BOP.

For me Connor Baxter will always be a looser, I don't mind in which position he crosses the line.

I think Connor and Starboard are a perfect match.

Let's not forget that Boothy did the same thing to Connor in Lost Mills, however Connor was a good sport about it and congratulated him afterward. Boothy throwing a fit after the Bilbao race was poor sportsmanship, especially for a teammate.

There are also photos of Kai grabbing Connor's handle after he fell in the BOP 2014 race, so maybe check your facts first before making up random crap.

Id be happy to show you a photo if you didn't actually watch the BOP and see what really happened.

By your theory Boothy wouldn't have been first in "your eyes" when he won in Lost Mills if we were DQ people for taking the correct line. Since the race directors didn't DQ Kai in the BOP why should Connor have been DQd in Bilbao?? Your reasoning is quite flawed.
