I am really liking the 14' Search.

I want a 14 footer that can downwind and surf waves equally well. This design looks as close to perfect as I've seen yet.

My M-14 surfs pretty well but the shape leans a little more towards the downwind side of the scale. The Search is thinner and a bit wider which equals it out nicely for both disciplines and like the M-14, the fin placement is right where it should be for surfing.

Is there any chance these will be available in the States anytime soon?

The Sunova? I saw that too and even my landlocked ass is interested. Creek recommended that or the Venture over the last few days where someone was checking something out and I saw them both from there. Not sure whether to thank him or not.
(whoops, of course. a sunova board, only noticed the "topic" to start)

Great Jim, I'm pretty sure I'm going to want one.

Hopefully I can sell one or two of my present boards to cover the cost before the Sonovas are all sold out.

Luc,

Creek & I have experience with the Venture and everyone who paddled it in a variety of conditions LOVED it. We sold everyone we could get our hands on. The Search "looks to be" a bit more glide but less stable but neither Creek or I have paddled the SEARCH

The Container with Ventures is due in Late Feb. We could squeak other boards in if you want call me 484 515 5758
to discuss
