OK, one last question, I think!!!
From what I have read and been told by all of you on this forum Naish makes a great product. I am definitely getting the Nalu 10'65". I know the GT is bamboo skinned and GS is not . Is there a difference in the way they paddle or surf, and can you tell me which one might suit me in the future when when my skills get better and why? Also, does the bamboo wrap around the rails on the GT?

GT. Bamboo is on the deck only, the GT has a thruster fin set up & so will surf better in the bigger waves that you mentioned on your other thread.
The GT has thruster fins.. The GS is just a single fin.. I think the center fin is better on the GT.
The GT has a windsurfing option.. The GS does not.
The GT has a pine wood deck.. Not bamboo.. The GS is just painted yellow.
The GT is slightly lighter but they are both the same shape and feel the same once in the water.
The GT is a better board IMO but they do cost a bit more.

Only small number models of GT are/were Bamboo... these are from china and are being phased out. Most of all the GT boards use pine of some sort.... the rest of above is right.
GT (wood) will last much longer under normal use.
oh yeah.... GT come with a board bag, GS doesn't
No, the 10'6.5" Nalu has never come as a bamboo and none are from China.
Only the very small volume stuff like the 7'6"
