Here is a clip of my very first wave on a borrowed Naish 9'3":

If you click on the clip and go into YouTube, you can "watch it in high quality"


How good is this board? Just jump on and rip it up - easy!

A full review is coming soon with more video and photos. Stay tuned.

Here's a teaser of some of the photos:


Get down low and go, go, go

Great pics casso Looking very stylish mate, Still having trouble getting my knee that far extended after ripping it on the big bus a few months back (kalama) I used to love getting my knee like that pigdogging on my shortboard

Hey Casso
i agree its a sick board i jumped back onto a few other boards and found that i can't even turn them and i always feel like i'm going to nose dive. The shape the rocker and the board rocks.. I couldn't be happier
I bet the hardest thing was giving it back

That gopro Wide takes some fantastic shots Casso, I like how we can see the whole shot rather than just your fancy footwork. Can you show us how you attached it to your paddle?

Interesting point about the nosediving jacko, untill i get my new 8 6" my naish 9 6" is the smallest board I have been on, now when I get on bigger boards they also feel like they will nose dive and slow to turn. I never use to nose dive big boards untill i got the smaller one.

I've actually got it for a few days. Had another session on it this morning - too good, got a few super fun ones. Probably should give it back tomorrow .

Yeah how did you do that? Im guessing you just used the sucker and sucked it onto the blade?

I'm guessin' that would be way too heavy.. Those suckers are pretty heavy.. I'm thinking cable ties or tape.

Yep, that's right, I just unsucked it from the nose of my board and sucked it on the face of my paddle. I did it while waiting out the back, caught an few waves like that and then put it back on my nose.

Yep, that's right, way heavy. You get used to it after a while but it is a bit awkward. The paddle feels really weird when you take it off again.
