Great board, but not long enough for the lower waves to do noseriding.

Tried the WIR 9 ft woodtone yesterday for awhile. great board felt very stable and was easy to manuever. little on the heavy side but not bad. great looking board.

Amazed and suprised at the maneuverability of this board. Catches everything and allows me to noseride with ease!!!

The WIR reviews here are an excellent example of how bogus this rating system is. The statements are very contradictory, except for the few which are accurate ......and how would you know if you haven't ridin one. However, anyone who rates the WIR as the #3 board in it's class.had better change the class name from "Longboards' to something else.

I have a 9 ft WIR. Horrible first longboard. Difficult to get into position and turn...and everything else. Extremely hard glass and extremely dangerous if it hits you...anywhere. Would never take this thing out in anything over 1 foot clean groundswell. Tuflites are notoriously slow.

This is a great board to start out with. I bought one 14 years ago and still enjoy taking it out there. The board floats well and is easy to paddle and stable. The extra little 3" kick in the nose helps to keep the novice from pearling and get into more waves. I'll buy another one of these boards in a heartbeat.

Looking for an easy paddling board for smaller waves & offshore wind.
