Nice!  Is there any way you can re-upload the photo or attach a link so that I (we) can read the text.   

The top looks like the regular 14' glide but the bottom is totally kayakified.  Is this for flat-water applications, downwind or both?

It looks as if it got less rocker than the current 14'. I am thinking a 14' for flatwater?

[redfour]

Very nice! Any idea when these will become available DJ?

Sorry that's the only pic that I have but I'm sure it will be up on the official Naish site soon.

The current 14' Glide is a down-wind board.. The 14' Javelin is a flat water race board.

redfour.. I should have one in a few days and they should be available in the US very soon.. It will cost about the same as the current 14' Glide.

I can't wait.. I think it looks fantastic.. I love the nose shape.

Nice one DJ.
I would like to hear about the stability with that narrow width. Let us know how it compares to the other 14'. 
This looks very interesting to me. Looks to be very fast and racey.

Its hard to just order one without testing it first. I am used to an 11' x 29" noserider, which is quite stable.

Angulo has a 14' on the way soon.  angulosups.com
it going to be 30" wide with a displacement nose.

I would recommend you try before you buy, especially if conditions you plan to paddle.  I've had a bit of time on my Glide on flat water...no problems, but I'm really struggle with the stability in open water/choppy conditions.  I'm sure with more time things will get dialed in, but it can be a bit frustrating.
