Steve,

The new SUB you made for me? (Me: 6'7"/260lbs; new SUB: 11'x33"x5 quad)

I took it out yesterday for the first time, Little Dume, knee- to 
waist-high. I can't believe how well it works for me. Somehow, it 
feels as stable as the 12'6" behemoth you made for me two years ago, 
but it turns in flat water really easy, and oh my lord, I made a few 
drop-in/quick exits on several waves, and I can't believe how well it 
turns across the face. For me, it's as light&nimble as my old 10' 
performance longboard. The thick tail works really well. Paddles 
surprisingly fast, considering the quad setup. And you just *nailed* 
the buoyancy/volume. The floatation is perfect. Oh, and the loops for 
carrying it with the paddle... soooo much easier.

Thanks for such a great SUP. I'm really diggin' it. Oh, and people 
really love the glass job, too.
