Dj, thanks for the sweet spot confirmation.

When you ride the new 28" 2015 Jav 14ft let us know if it gets the best from the V2 and V3!

Cheers!

I don't expect there to be any similarities to the v2 but rather an evolution of the v3... It will be interesting..  :)

The LE's are here.

I must be out of the loop, since when did Naish start using the "V" nomenclature? I find it easier to refer to Naish boards in terms of years produced.

Naish haven't… but we have.. I think we're up to version three now [V3].. no idea what the years are because a new one didn't come out regularly each year.

I'll try:  2011 and prior, - V1
            2012-2013, - V2
            2014-present, V3

I think there were a few V2's made and sold in 2014 colours.  DJ used to have one, or still does.

It ain't over until the fat board sinks....

Congrats!  It's a keeper...I love my v2.

Make sure you watch some of DJ's videos downwinding the V2 glide.
It has a small "sweetspot" for best results downwinding.. It's really apparent when you watch a couple of DJ's high wind runs when he was using his rear camera mount.

What should we do without DJ
Took it for a spin the other day. 1,5 mile upwind and back, and it surprised me on the upwind leg. I thought I would get pushed around a lot because of the extra nose rocker, but that wasn't the case at all. Actually it tracked pretty well.
