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.
