Can anyone who's ridden one of these boards comment on their performance, as all the dimensions seem to be what I am looking for but I notice they have a square tail and I much prefer a round or round pin as I have found most square tails not as loose as round ,pin or swallow tails, would be good to also know your weight and how stable and or how they paddle onto the wave, e.g. good glide etc.
Any feedback would be great.
Thank you

I think Piros did a review on the Lithium a year or 2 back.

Hi Wheels, I have a Lithium it seems pretty quick to turn and is fast, if your near Safety Bay catch up with Jason "WOK" he may have a demo to try then you will be able to get the answer you are looking for? love mine!

Thanks for the replies, CoID do you mind me asking you height and weight?

29 x 4-1/2 -120 litre. (but the new web site says 130 litre ?)

This is the video review I did a couple of years ago :-

I use both the Nitro and Lithium.

85kg,

found the board to be more maneuverable than I would ever need. I would think that the board will not be the limiting factor!

good waves to all

I now have one of these and got in some half decent waves today and it seems great on the wave, the only thing that pissed me off a bit was the shop I brought it from reassured me it was 130 litres when I asked as someone had mentioned it was only 120 and now as above according to Piros its is only 120 you would think corban would get there specs right. Any way I can stand on it in choppy water and it seems loose as on the wave so all good. Thanks for all the feed back above.
