This board remains one of my favourites. Its set up as a thruster which seems to suit it perfectly. Like most mini-mals it has a relaxed nose rocker and catches waves easily. I suspect that its balanced with a little extra tail rocker as its really easy to turn this board like a shortboard. It will top turn and cutback with ease. Surprisingly, you can also do cheater 5's pretty easily. The finish on this board was excellent and after 1 year of regular use there were very few heel compressions on the deck. This was probably due to the heavier Burford Blank (polyurethane) and the gloss and polish finish (Polyester). In all I could not fault this board one bit in durability or performance. It would make an excellent first shorter board.
Rating: 5/5
