Has anyone seen a decent review on this board ? Does anyone own one and can do a review ? It's marketed as a light wind free ride board as opposed to the race board it resembles . Just wondering if it's some thing worth owning for a beginner or if it requires advanced skill to ride

... If its anything like a Sector then it should be a nice board and easy to ride.

I'm a wakestyle guy but I've ridden it. Found it super easy to get going on. Raceboards not so much... Give one a go if you can find a demo!

I tried it a couple of weeks ago in light wind conditions. I'm just getting the hang of surfboards (very unreliable foot switching), but didn't find it easy at all. Much harder to start as it needs to be mostly flat and its a totally different feeling riding on the fins. It flies upwind but is much much harder to control downwind. It is not a beginners light wind board what ever it is. Probably OK if you want efficient upwind cruising, but a nugget or similar is far more versatile.
