I have both a Tsunami and a Black Pearl Yellow.
Sure the Black Pearl is faster but for the price the Tsunami can't be beat. They ride pretty close, close enough that if somebody else is riding the Tsunami I won't bother changing boards when its my turn. I can spin the Tsunami nearly as easy as the Black Pearl. The Black Pearl looks much nicer...
I just picked up a Broadcast 5'6" for beginners and tandem riding. If you want my Tsunami and you are in norcal shoot me a PM:
mikeskiw@gmail.com I'd rather not go through the hassle of shipping.
