Grindwater ginsu
 
I saw a gins on close out at a local shop. The shape reminds me of the finless concepts posted a while ago. Has anyone ridden one before? How is it.

It is one of the favorite boards on our boat. Super fast and agile. It is really quite light as well. It gets used way more than our IS blue lake.

The only downfall is it is very fragile.

How big of riders do you have on it?
The last grindwater I rode had to much tail rocker and wise kind of slow for me.

Dan I could ride it at 120lbs. I think Wes is around 130'sh? Bigcat could make it work at a mere 150'sh and with a good wave (big wave needed for the bigger boys :D )

Mmm I'm 6'4 @200.

I think Duramat was sniffing too much gasket sealer during his thermostat replacement. Somewhere in there all 3 of us lost exactly 100 lbs.

So Dura was about 220, moocher about 230, and me around 250 at one time.

It will handle 250 no problem with a good size wave!

I'll have to see how low they will go on it this weekend.
It has a few spots where it's been man handled in the store so I can see how sensitive it could be.

I cant believe I made that mistake.....again LOL!

I think I'm in denial regarding my fat butt :D
