Just got back from a Maldives Boat Trip to the Central Atolls. We were on Emperor Virgo with 9 good blokes, good tunes and beer that would eventually run out on the 2nd last night. Swam with sharks, a whale shark and dolphins that wasn't mentioned in the brochure!
I got the new Starboard Pro 7'5" only days before I left and gave it a good work out. In short this board is a rocket...and sticks like glue no matter how hard you throw it into a turn. A great improvement on my old 7'7" Pro which you will find in the "Buy & Sell" soon.
Thanks Paul and the guys at The Zu and Starboard for helping me out! Got some waves on a 5'10" Starboard Amp which was sick.
