I think you forgot how well it slices bread. I think this thread has got a
little excessive. Board prefernce is like asking someone what is the "best"
flavor of ice cream. ASD has a lot of fans around here and I think most
everyone will agree they make good boards. My suggestion is to to go visit
them. Talk to them to find which board they recommend for your
ability/sailing experience, etc. Demo boards from them. They are pretty
close to Coyote.

Now let's move on to somehting more constructive, like how to make the wind
blow:)
