hi again, the local surfshop here informed me that the X32 will arrive at mid april!I really need a board cause i am heading for marocco beginning of april.
now the question is , should i go for the JP wide body or should i wait , go without , take my kite stuff and wait till it arrives ???? what would you do ? all help is welcome..... greetings
Thx DJ, my head says Naish indeed, can't wait to get my hands on one
,got anymore vids about the X32 DJ?
Hi, I have 2013 Naish 9' Hokua, 10 ' 6" 2014 Narlu and a 2013 8' 2" JP Wide Pro all excellent for their purpose all used with a methane paddle, love the lot
More to the point what do you want.
i purchased a x32 for the conditions i surf in.
if the conditions you surf in are the same as where your heading ... win win
i would never buy any board.... because i was impatient .
just my thoughts 
quess what!!!!!! the board will be delivered next week !!!!!! woehoeeee.......together with a Naish Kaholo adj. 8.0 paddle...........the Harley ingleby quad fins are in as the knubster and railsaver pro.................could' nt be better ! Have a nice weekend folks !

totally agree..................rest my case ............i will wait for the X32
Yeh fully agree with weiry. Waiting will save you money. Try to demo it first. I rode the Hokua 8'3 X32 the other day because of the good wraps it was getting, but I was really disappointed. Seemed heavy and stiff. Surf was bout 3' onshore but maybe goes better in faster waves.
windra you must be on some "breaking bad" drugs man - get some balls and put your foot back near the rear deck pad kicker and this board is insanely fast & loose on any sloppy fat wave or sucky beach/reef break up to double head.
you must be surfing it to way forward like some big fat horrible 10ft sup - or if you are a light weight dude and then its not for you, as these boards are for very heavy or tall dudes who like a very surfy feel on waves - peace man 
PS- always test as a quad as the board comes alive THEN - the standard thruster set up " big rear old mans fin and very **** plastic small fronts" are sub average at best unless surfing solid 5ft reef breaks AND THEN IT WORKS WELL (with decent front large glass fins) as it slows every thing down & handles a good sized wave if you like a skatey feel.
PPS - 2 months on this great board - I reckon NAISH should drop litres to 118/120 litres then the 8.3 would be even more perfect for a 6ft 5 inch 95kg dude like me.
Johnno I'm looking at getting the 8'3 x32..im 6ft and 94kgs..advanced skill level coming off an 8'6 Allwave..with jc fins..wanting a lighter board with more performance ..would this fit the bill. Hard to demo boards in nz? Your feedback be appreciated
Cheers

im 6'3 and 95kg and ride the 7'10. awesome board. loose and fun and fast in pretty ordinary waves. u can get on ur back foot in weak waves. i like it
I'm only 77kg and I think the 8'10 @ 130L is easy to throw around, not heavy and stiff at all in my experience. Super stable and I can throw it around easily so there's no reason a bigger guy can't. Unless like Johno says, toughen up and get your foot to the back of the board ;)
