Very nice.  So does it become a "quiver" of one for downwinding?  You still going to keep the LE x26 and the v3 and v2 Glides?  Or have you already sold them  to finance your Naish habit... ;D



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

Thanks for the encore vid of that day DJ.
And thanks for taking the time to do the comparison pics of the old and new Jav's.

So I guess your V2 Glide is a keeper, eh?  Thought so.
Though you've convinced me to at least demo the new Jav - when we get them in next Spring.

Ha.. Yeah.. The Glide V2 is a keeper.. It's still early days on the new 2015 Jav.. It is very fast that's for sure.. But the low nose does take more work and will take a little getting used to.. That day was very messy.. very gusty.. and we had constant wind directions shifts so it was not a good for waves.. and not a good test for the new board.. Still it was lots of fun..  :)
