The nose is pointed and now also very flat across the water, which reinforces the sporty impression. This board is also the standard board for the N1SCO class, in which national competition series as well as European and world championships are organised. The side construction has been reinforced for 2017 and is designed as a "double rail", i.e. in double foil, as is the case with many other brands. The board is definitely one of the sportier tourers, so it's no wonder that the options for transporting luggage are not the main focus. The large fin ensures good directional stability, making the board fun all round; tight turns over the narrow tail just take a bit of practice.
PLUS Stable when paddling; very fast; access to Naish's N1SCO unit race class; sporty and fast feelMINUS Carrying handle unpadded and tightly sewn on
Conclusion: Very versatile board for sports and touring, unless you are travelling with a lot of luggage in difficult conditions.
