My uncle still rides them to this day . He has a 84 and a 94 . He loves them , use race sails mostly but wave sails when it's super windy and choppy . Eats chop and is no slouch . I've seen him do some pretty imprressive jumps as well . I think it's more a free ride board .

Used to own one, was a great board. Managed to get 30 knots out of it with a 7.7 Race sail. Liked big wide Jibes but that could have been to do with the size of the board...

They are long and narrow, so one would expect them to be fast, but the speed depends on other factors too. Rail, tail drag, a fin, and god knows what other laws of physics...

The size of interest is 103L, and that would be a small board for me (102kg).
I use that size in 25+ knots winds, so not much, and no point in spending '000s on a board that is used 5 times a year , but wouldn't mind something that narrow in high winds. They do have a good rap.

If anything, it could end up on the wall as a decoration

Hello,
with 20-25 kt wind, I roar in the 28-31kt speed area on the fin. Slalom or freeride, I am not sure what it means in this case, it is identified as slalom board. This one is the original 281x59x115l Asa/composite construction from 1990-91. It was my only board since 3 years with s-Type sail 6.6 and 7.8 for the 13-25kt wind range. I am 80kg. Now the replacer arrived as a third hand CA SL 70 2009.
