anyone know anything bout the 9'5' naish soft top
« on: April 27, 2011, 09:13:08 PM »
thinking about getting one.  I currently have an 11 ft nsp and am surfing it in small waves but it's starting to feel too heavy and long and not very manuverable.  Any thoughts?

Pretty sure it's a 10' Mana softtop and I've used one a few times and liked it but I think the AST version is much better.

 The Mana is a fun board for sure, and really shines if you don't want to worry about banging it up. The bottom layer is about 1/8" thick, foam-like with a hard bottom skin. My weighed 31 lbs, but is nimble in the water. Lots of rocker, but still paddles faily straight. Haven't been out in waves, but it tries to get going on the smallest of boat wakes. With me (200lbs) and my dog (65 lbs) we are kinda maxed out on volume, but not quite sunk. I couldn't find any decent pictures of one when I was looking at them, so I have a page with some different angles here:

Hope this helps!
