Just had a couple of spectacular sessions in the Gorge on 93L JP FSW board (with 4.3 sail) (I am 200 lbs). I am somewhat amazed - and puzzled - at how well the...
Yesterday, at Magnuson, I was given the chance to instruct a first timer (my 35 year old surfing cousin "Colin"). Well, we spent an hour on dry land standing...
Alex, I had a similar experience at Windfest this year. For me it was on an RRD FSW 95L. Same sort of thing, the board seemed to sail by itself, and it...
ah, interesting observation about the board coming down flatter (nose-ish first) - I am pretty sure JP FSW does it, too - tail doesn't drop down. It also stays...
