I like the feel of EPIC V10. The L model concerns me for bigger waves. Want to keep weight below 26lbs. I'm in a Fenn Mill. (spooky in big waves but havent tipped. dont have fun in it. want more stable.) Is the Huki S1-X spec. as fast as Epics I hear they are real stable? I really like sitting up and getting over my paddle.( like in a K-1) Is Epic V10s the only ski like that? I will be looking for a HPSki in Jan. I like the feel of EPIC V10.

Like is 25 km/h gonna make a wave way too small to surf? I can't afford to go to the island anymore so help me out! haha Hey I was just wondering what kind of wind speed/direction and swell direction you need for Ambleside to start working?

Its been really great to pull- very smooth, and good stroke simulation. I would definitely recommend the SpeedStroke. Cheers, and have a great winter cross-training!

The 3 things together- dehydration, myoglobinuria and NSAIDs could be very bad for some. Especially in those of us who now find themselves in the "Masters" category. In addition NSAIDS have an effect on the stomach and should be used with foods to avoid ulcers and gastric bleeding. Regards, Craig Hi,
