SUP General / New design,Wide Speed, Infinity

« on: January 23, 2022, 11:01:48 AM »

Its been awhile since I've posted but still cruise around the zone reading all the stories. Thank you all for sharing..
I was on the Infinity SUP / Surf, site. There is a New design being offered; 2022, A Wide Speed Model. Offered in 8 sizes from 7'-7" to 11'. I had seen a 8-2 x 32'' offered in this design. Similar specs to my Starboard 8-2 Wide Point, which is the board I've had for many years, which is no longer offered by SB. ( discontinued ). I was going to call the company for info on the new model. Be happy to share their info.
Just wondering if any fellow zoners have insight or info on this new design..
Thank you for your time and energy for reading and / or responding.

I have had the HN 7-8 for two years now. I have a 16' Brushed Carbon and a new 18' Starlite model.. I live here on the East Coast where the waves are not the best that lack power and push.. I ride the HN in the small to mid size 2-4 ft mush and slow rolling waves. It floats me well at 186 lbs. Its light weight allows me to pump and skate across the wave making sections that collapse in the slow waves. The board keeps me in the power section on the slow flatter waves and generates speed when i needed it. I ride the board on my front foot sort of a skate style. The HN allows me to have fun in our gutless waves. In waves of power with top to bottom shape and size, i have discovered that the board gets hung up with late take offs. The boxier rails and wide tail doesn't allow me to stay in the arcing pocket pushing me ahead of the section where the wave is flatter. When I step back on the tail in the steep conditions it slows down and loose speed. Maybe due to the super wide tail? I'm not really a fan of quad fins boards even though many favor this fin configuration. I'm a thruster or 2+1 fan with a heavy back foot surfing style. Bury the tail drive the rail type surfing.
When the waves are flatter, slower and mushy walls its my go to board. When waves are punchier i ride a thruster narrow tail SUP model .
