Bit of Background.
Long time surfer.
I have been Kiting since 2005.
Riding only surfboards since 2010ish when I got onto a Rebel.
Location Central Qld. So mainly wind slop.
Weight 90 Kilos.
Board Marty Littlewood Revamp.
Dims 5'11" x 18 3/4" x 21/4" Quad
Unstrapped.
Conditions 14-24knots.
Side On.
1 metre swell.
7mt Neo fully depowered. Should have been on my 6.
Beautiful thru the water.
Smoothed out the chop really nice.
Pops over whitewater smooth and easy.
1st wave impression. Fast but controlled.
Smooth back hand bottom turns.
Nice drive.
Can still bust the fins out in a cutty if you want.
Points nice and high.
Speed speed to burn.
Can be laid over in a forehand bottom turn so hard.??
When coming out of toe side turns you have sooo much speed.
Feels like no other board I have ever ridden on a kite. And I've ridden and still own a hell of a lot of boards.
I seriously cannot fault this boards performance.
The ability to point so high allows you to chase down more waves.
Marty has certainly waved the magic planer over this one.
