Phatty or Super Phatty

Postby jpkiter » Tue Aug 01, 2006 11:19 pm

SO.... I have an Aggression 132x37.....now i'm considering going for a lightwind board....either the Phatty ( 132x43), or the super Phatty (132x46)....

I don't want to get one to close to the board size i have already..., but i don't want TOO wide either....


I'm hoping to try a super phatty...until then....any inputs would be appreciated....

Wendi..are you are there??? What's your take on it??

Thanks!!

Super Phatty for sure.

Don't even think about it. The S. Phatty will take you as low as you want to go, and you'll have your other board for all other conditions. DO IT!

YEEeeHHaaaWWwww !!

Got my new Aggression Super "puffDaddi" Phatty board yesterday + was able to give it a whirl..

Took a few rides to get used to it...I do have to adjust my stance alittle, but over-all....just glides thru the water NICE....and no problems motoring upwind in lighter conditions...

MMM mmm...glad I went with it!! :thumb:
