Here are some of my thoughts about the L41BW. 8'4x31x4.6x130L for my 195Lb As Caribsurf mentioned, the board is sluggish but I already knew it going in based on the rocker and shape dimensions so I wasn't disappointed.
It was meant for late take-offs and faster waves with steeper sections and for that it was everything I thought it would be. I felt the board could perform a lot better than what my mediocre skills could push.
The built quality was pretty good overall but it was prone to denting on the standing area.
The reason I sold it was more related to the fact I wan't using it much because of foiling and the quality of the wave in my home spot that changed after a big storm not offering too many opportunities for that shape. Trying to work this board in slow gutless conditions wasn't happening for me.

The Omen boards are good. Very mini simmons esque. I like them a lot.
And you can't beat that construction either. My Omen lives in a car exposed to heat and sun for months and won't take water.

I guess the argument for paying the price of these new materials is that a wing may last a few seasons. Yes, it may last longer so you could almost argue it’s worth it. But, imagine using a wing that is 3 seasons old today, means your using a V1 Wasp, or maybe a Slingshot with an inflatable trailing edge (what were they thinking?), but one thing is for sure it has soft handles. Who know where the designs will be in 3 years, I doubt anyone with that kind of disposable coin will be willing to ride an old design.
Your point is valid when it comes to many wings on the market. Also makes perfect sense for racing and competition and its development over the past couple of years. That said, if my F-one Strike V1 was built with the same materials as the AA wing and kept the performance over the years I would happily keep using it. I'm pretty sure the Strike V1 would have been a much better wing if the designers had access to the current Aluula high-end materials. Perfect for my use case as I do not race nor compete and I couldn't care less about tricks.

I was just telling someone the other day that I thought foil design was going to plateau pretty soon. I guess those words are as good as eaten. Looks like wing tip breaches all over the place though.
...We are certain to find the shortcomings of each .
This design is fascinating Wondering if you ran any flow analysis with mast included in the formula? It reminds me a flow issue I ran into a while back running three vertical objects in such close proximity.

Big upgrade to the Ocean Rodeo: The Price
I fixed it for you
You are probably right. Given how much I spent on bagged-out wings this past year, the price seems compelling
