Such great analysis Reuben, thank you! I bought the AllStar a couple of months ago and find it the twitchiest board I’ve paddled, yet has amazing secondary stability as you say. I’m committed, and do really like paddling it, though it is a bit of a challenge. Also, is straight up sucks to carry this to/from the car to the water. Really not sure which I’d have picked had I seen this report first. Love your reviews!
Hi Fletch, Thanks for your feedback and glad you love the reviews. Happy paddling Reuben
