OK maybe I should of qualified this request by saying has anyone ridden a JL WWW yet ? AND has any feedback on how the board performs.
I really see little point in three video's and find the soundtrack nauseating and content bizarre ????? WTF is the lift one all about ????

maybe there trying to reach a wider audience in Asia , just follow my logic for a sec , on the JL marketing front , you can into a crowded line up still piss everyone off and still get waves ,you completely burn some surfer chick and get away with it along as you ride a JL, and now introducing JL world wide into high density multi-storey living , you can piss off people in lifts and stairwells . Mission complete!!!

I just revisited this thread to see if anyone had added a rider review.... no one has ridden one yet?

I see the point of the "Stair" video. in a land where most people live in apartment buildings, and have zero storage outside, the ability to take a SUP up stairs or in an elevator would be the defining sales point. No fit up stairs = no SUP

It would be great to hear about this board!!! Any delivered yet?

yep, i rode the 8'1in thruster in well overhead waves and loved how loose it was being that bit smaller than my 8'7 stun gun. That said, i was more confident dropping down the bigger ones on the stun gun. So like Hilly said i think they may be for the waves we ride more often at around chest to head high. If i had room in the shed i'd get one

Nice to hear someone's been on one, what other comparisons to the 8'7" Stun Gun can you give us? Do you think the 8'1" world wide was more or less stable? Faster, or slower once on the wave? Thanks

Totally different than a Stungun. More stable at a shorter size as wider and thicker. So you can step down a size. I went from 9 2 stungun to 8 5 WW with ease at 110 kg. The carbon model is super fast and easy to throw around on the small waves I have had it in so far.

Yep and, funnily enough, one gets a really good view at the board shape. I almost didn't notice the porn music, stairs and neon lights.

Besides, anyone who has studied film directing has studied Hitchcock and knows there are always stairs when the suspense is building. Which is also what this thread is about. Isn't it?

Damn! I'm gonna miss JP Auclair. I liked the way he took the stairs better.



RIP JP Auclair and Andreas Fransson.
