Hey Hoppy Step up to the 8'5" pro and I can help you out. It is more stable than the 2012 model and it is a treat to ride with heaps of drive and easy to break loose off the top. Once you get used to it you won't look back.
hi Mike i have tried the Pro and found it a little unstable for me 85kg on a good day great board when the surf is on but i need the stability out of interest Mike what do you weigh?
I am 82kg and it did take a couple of weeks to get used to the pro but once I did I was glad I made the step . I enjoy the challenge but we are only out there for fun so an easier board is definitely worth while. Hope you find one. Cheers
Good luck trying to get one hoppy rare as rocking horse s--t when they make a good all round board like that and don't change the design crew just hang on to them This may be the only guy who may sell his but he's in gnarloo for a week or so more
