Just had my first surf on my new jp 8/8 in 1 ft waves , it took a little getting used to as I've come
From a 9/6 alwave so I've dropped 40 lts or so and I'm around 100 kg .but I am super happy with
Stability . The board glides well through any flat spots onto the next section surprisingly well and is really loose . Can't wait to try it in a bit more size .

Any more sessions on the JP?
I currently ride a 9'6 Allwave and am ready for another SUP reduction.(97kg)
Looking at the JP 8'8 wide body

Surfed the 8'10 Allwave today and liked it a lot... very comfortable right off the bat, but I like to change things up when getting a new board.

Any new sessions and thoughts on the JP?

I've had a few more surfs on the Jp now and I am enjoying it more each time it's taking me a a bit of getting used to due to my lack of ability,but what I lack in ability I make up in inthusiasum . The biggest challenge for me is in side chop but I'm getting better every surf and the proformance and speed on the wave more than make up for it. Hope that helps a bit supthecreek

ditto to the remarks. Last weekend was a challenge with cross chop all over. Balance does improve and when on a wave, let the fun begin!
