Not on your list but Kinetic has some interesting wave boards including
a new
8'7" you can check out at the Kinetic warehouse/shop in Oakland (Vision
Sports).
I just sailed 4 of the last 6 days at Berkeley on the new 8'10" w/6.5
sail (~188 lb.).
Lots of fun. Some info at kineticsports.com. The Berkeley season is
officially open!
Would rather have been on 5.7 or so today and on Sunday, both late sessions.
