I really liked how the board paddled and took off.

Todd,

I bought a 6′ 10″ x 21″ x 3″ Big Chief back in April. I was not able to get it out for a while due to a new baby and flat surf. I finally got it out in some pretty small stuff a few weeks ago. Although I was pretty out of paddling shape (my wife having 2 little girls in three years has slowed me down),

I really liked how the board paddled and took off. I am super happy with it! It makes it even better knowing how much pride you take in your work.

Thank You
