How much do you weigh?
How floaty is this board? Does the extra width keep it from sinking so
it seems to have more flotation? My old ChallengeFlex was this way
where it was fairly wide compared to an 8'8" ASD and it had very hard
rails so it actually slogged really well (compared to my 8'8" ASD RKT
which is short for "ROCK" it sinks so fast) for me at #220 even though
the board only had 158 lbs of flotation.

regards
Kirk
