Infinity New Deal 9-0 x 31

Having fun on the Infinity New Deal. 9-0 x 31 
 Great float for my 190# frame, really stable paddling out and piercing through the surf and on coming waves. The rounded pintail make the board loose and maneuverable. I have it set up as a 2 + 1 fin set up. The board is really light with its ''SUPspention teck '' carbon fiber technology.
Its a longboard type model with short board characteristics in a SUP model 
Im blown away at the exceptional maneuverability the board display. You're able to glide along early on the wave so you're ready to set up down the line. I live the fact you and bury the tail and drive the rail. 
Definitely a board to have in the quiver. Great for those 1-2 foot days but does excels in the head high plus too. I probably could step down to the next size smaller but being comfortable is key waiting for waves.

Here his the link to the New Deal and Infinity SUP products. 

Enjoy and stay In-Joy

Infinity Wide Speed 7-11

Some pics on the new Infinity  7-11  Wide Speed. 
Great little board at 115 liters. Supports my weight at 185 lbs
Have it set up as a quad (med size) plus Nubster.  Loose and provides hold. Still getting use to the 
angled / or beveled rails on the bottom. They do allow rail to rail flow but standing waiting for waves its a tad tipsy. Still experimenting with different fin configurations. 
Why the 7-11?  I had ordered and received  the 8-2 Wide Speed at 125L and the squash tail on that board was way too wide. I could not get drive down the line and maneuvering the board it felt stiff.  Tried so many fin set up Thruster, 2+1, quads of different sizes and flexes and added center nubster. Could nor get it to move or flow.  Luckily I was sable to downsize to the 7-11 version at 30 wide. The tail was much smaller and was able to put the board where I wanted. Stability is a bit more challenging but it's so doable. 
Only had 6 sessions on the smaller Wide Speed. 
More to come... 

 Fun rights 

Speedy lefts.

Enjoy having the break to myself and surfing alone.

Its a floater!
