Now it works, thanks Bryan. By the way, had a chance to ride my new Skywalker yesterday that I picked up from Scott. Did Picninc Is. Went upwind well but I think I'm probably more impressed with it being so lightweight and its board strength. Its a little shorter than the FLX52 I normally ride and therefore I did find myself with a couple of face plants on transitions but after an hour or so, got use to its shorter length. Overall, the weight makes for a better lightwind board compaired to the Underground but its sure hard to beat the Cadillac feel of the FLX52.

Anyway, thats my $0.02 for what its worth, after just one session....

Glad you are happy with it, Gary. It is pretty light, isn't it?

I am confident that the SW smokes the 152 in light wind in terms of how fast it planes and especially its ability to go upwind in the light stuff. I debated keeping it, but once it hits 12, I can hop on a smaller board and I have a Glide.

That SW is basically a continuation of the Airush Exile since Dimitri is now with SW and left A.R. It was just too big for the Donster (who it was for originally).
