That looks like an RRD X-Fire "wave" board as well

Wonder how they'd go through the tumble cycle.

i reckon the board would do better than the rig.

i had the pleasure of watching a formula rig go through the tumble cycle and it didn't fair well.

great photo

Is this actually an end of a slalom race ? I watched some of the PWA slalom footage and races somtimes finish by coming through the breakers, could be a bit weird sailing your slalom kit down a 6 foot wave

As opposed to the 5ft waves in the Lancelin Marathon?!
