Hi Clones,
Are you guys going to test the 2010 Freestyle boards anytime soon?
Thanks

Just buy a skate, the new ones are unbelieveably sick.

hows the new tabou twinser freestyle? looks cool but does it have any real benefits to it???

The chillis have always been great. Is the new Rodeo classified as a freestyle?

I bought the new Tabou Twister 100. Only had the chance to sail it for one session before winter hit and gave us freezing temperatures and snow for weeks. The session I had was perfect flat water, gusty wind, but perfect for my Reverb 5.2.

The board has a lively feel to it. It pops with ease, and slides and rotate as a freestyle with a short fin should. The deck shape makes it possible to stay comfortably in the straps going up wind. I´m used to running 16 to 20cm fins on my 100 liters freestyle boards.This makes going up wind special. With two 16cm fins the Tabou goes up wind much better than a single fin. In this one session I found myself up wind much earlier than I´m used to and that put me in a position to do more moves. It felt early going, but I was sailing alone so I had no comparison.
Carving was also nice. I had no problem going for strapped 360s with speed.

I´m looking forward to a little warmer weather to explore it more. My first impression is that it takes the advantage of a short fin single freestyle but has better up wind capability.
