Prone sprint, excellent!
I love the ease of set up and pack away, so handy to be able to train for the summer season lifeguarding without the bulky hard board, no need for roof rack or a permanently large storage space.
Really lightweight exceptionally easy to maneuver. Tested a recovery with a medium size human and can confirm I am able to use as if it's a full size rescue board. The bag with backpack style straps is excellent, and it makes the effort to go out for a quick fitness run next to nothing compared.
5 stars for customer service too as I received a pump that was obviously damaged in transit, and a new one was shipped out the same day as contacting Cs.
It does feel different in the water compared to a hard board, with the tiniest amount of flex that gives a kind of suction to the surface of the water - however the lightweight, fast travel and maneuverability on stationary turns is more enjoyable in my opinion. I have yet to try this in proper surf and catch a wave, but I very much look forward to it. I love the fact I can attach a leash for no worries fun in the more extreme days. I do miss the divot/cutout on our work boards where I brace my knees against the side rails on a fast kneeling paddle, but to be fair it's not worse it's just different. The grip rubber is excellent, in fact it's so grippy I think I need to wear my longy as it's easy to get red raw knees and shins. This is my first session in a long time so I imagine my skin will harden up again after a few goes.
