2018 ECS Slab 7'11" x 28 3/4 review

[JEG]

80kg 5'5" beginner to intermediate and I can't do cut back yet

good package as it came with full carbon paddle and nice bag.

for a short board 7'11" x 28 3/4 it paddles well in/out of surf with parallel outline, wide nose & tail.
Its hard work on rough days but manageable.

I like thruster setup though quad setup somehow grippy and fast down the line.

its a nice design board and surfs well for a hack like me its shame about the board construction and material as I feel its poorly made.
