Hi

I would like to know impressions of RRD wave cult V8 mainly in bigger sizes. I've always liked RRD wave boards for its looseness, and particularly wave cult for it was so easy, friendly and all round some years ago in trifin setup. Don't know if the V8 (2019-2020) was similar, better or worse.

Thks

Thanks. Do you mean it was much worse than other wavecults in all points? Was it ltd or wood?

I tested the wavecult 2016 and I liked it very much. Easy and good carver. I see the v7 was much worse, right?

I guess the different tail outline you mean the wingers they include from then, right?

The version Mark is talking about, and which I measured slight toe out on the boxes, has a slight swallow tail.
Mine seems to work best as either a twin or quad although when I've gone big on the center fin and small on the thrusters it's done pretty well as a thruster. Definitely prefers toed-in thrusters.
