The 2000 Naish 8'11" (103l) works really well out there. You can save some
dough on this otherwise expensive board by grabbing last year's model as I
did (check with Boardsports or mail-order houses). It's light, stiff, and
maneuvers well. This year's 8'9" should perform similarly, but has slightly
less volume (and no discount). So if you are on the borderline for sinking
at that size, that difference might matter.

My 100L board incorrectly displays a manufacturing date
of 198x. Any suggestions for a board that, in order:

1. Is smooth and light in chop
2. Slogs comfortably out to the wind line
3. Quick to plane and easy to jibe

At Crissy Tuesday there was a 1/2 mile dead slog out to
4.5 conditions, so guys were rigging 5.5's on
100L boards, lots of JP's like the 267 Freemove. Any
other favorites out there?

Thanks,
Bob Dow
