I'm loving the board!! I paddled it (Hobie 14' Elite) yesterday in the ocean for several miles. When you step to the back of the pad the board handles all conditions extremely well. I pushed thru a sloppy inlet with large boat wake and then went down coast with the wind. It surfed bumps well, but working your feet forward and back is the key!! I then surfed the board to see how it would feel on a down winder with bigger swell. I'll have to spray some traction on the back, but believe it or not I caught some great waves. It trimmed well on three foot peelers. I've been surfing 25 years, so the fact that I had so much fun on it in the ocean first time out is a testament to the design of the board.
