From people that actually have ridden the actual board.

I tried the board myself and liked it. I think it is very nice and good for many conditions. What I find really annoying is how people argue like it was the Holy Grale of kitesurfing and even more unnerving is that nobody else in the hole wide world is supposed to be able to produce a board with equal let alone better properties. I like hipe and debates, but this sounds more like religion to me.
