I picked up one of the new 5'5" caution surfboards a few weeks ago, and got some really good sessions on it this weekend. I got this for my high wind board, but found out it has killer low end as well.
Construction: The board looks to be bombproof this year. Built super tough, but feels like a normal surfboard
Feel: Very fast and lively board. Very comfortable to ride. Played with different strap options, and found out I like it best with the back strap in the most forward position, and the front strap in the back position.
Low end: I took it out last week in some 15mph winds on my 12m kite, and it was fine...very suprised on how well it does for being such a small board
High end: was pretty lit at times today on my 10m in some super strong west wind gusts, and it ate up the gust fine... think the high end is unlimited on this board...
Bottom turns, smacking the lip, etc..: perfect.... fun...a blast...etc..
Definitely recommend this board. Interested to see how the 6.0 is, although I don't know if I would need it....
Here are a few videos from the Caution site on the boards... love the video of the girl ripping it up...cool song...
