Try the Fanatic Bee 260 CDS. It has 85l. It is smallest freeride
board from Fanatic. It got very good notes from div. magazines.
It comes with two fins (30, 24) from Maui Co., a mustbase and
soft pads.

As I bought it this spring I was really afraid to have such a
short board. Fortunately, a friend of mine (hello, lev!) managed
to convice me to buy that one.

I sailed it in Gorge and here. It is great! If the wind is more then 20
(like this Sun) there is no alternative in the size for me (163#).

BTW, I think they are still on sale in Berkeley Windsurfing for $999

PS. I'm not from the shop. I simply bought my board there.
