Going to the Dark side
« on: February 28, 2017, 08:13:02 PM »
I got a used Ace-GT from one of my friend.
I think that it will be a nice distance/touring board.

Thanks. This is the city side. There is plenty of more natural settings around :-)

This is a great justification and it is a very nice board to paddle on your own during the winter for longer paddle out of sight (with warm booties as feet get wet).
