Default Saw one of the Nobile boards but...

It looked awesome until I picked it up and then I wasn't so sure?

It seemed to have waaay too much flex (turning into heavy rocker on the water) and really did not seem as light as it should have for it's thickness. I could easily bend the tips with just my fingers which seemed like too much flex to me. I didn't get to ride it but I bet it would have trouble going upwind when the rail is loaded? Well, at least for my fat rear anyway.

Before you dump $900 on one you might want to do a test ride just to make sure it does what you need it to.

I am not speaking for all of them just the one I saw. Only seen one so far.

I am trying to find something to replace my anomaly (aka the punisher) and that board didn't seem to be what I was looking for.
