    Well, I picked up a 7'3" last month and it sat in the shed while I tried to work out the Bing and the Fishcuit. It's not a light weight board...that's for sure. I was actually thinking about trading it in before I even rode. After riding the Fishcuit, I thought this board wouldn't really offer me much more and the weight turned me off about it. Anyway, I took it out this morning.

    Awesome board! Rides much better than the Fishcuit. I think the Fishcuit's double concave bottom makes it alot more skatey than I prefer. The Bull Fish is a flat bottomed quad and really worked well in the 2-3 ft choppy mush. I'm sure the weight provided some added stability, but the shape really allowed a stable feel. It caught the waves easily and turned really well.

    I'm a fan.
