Great How to for Beginners and even some Advanced ,  Saturday, 24 April 2010 Even though I\'ve had several years of stand up paddling and consider myself an advanced surfer and paddler, I learned various paddling techniques that make me a much better paddler. And of all the videos that I\'ve seen, Dan and Nikki\'s Ultimate Guide to Stand Up Paddling is by far the most comprehensive guide to date and a \"must have\" for everyone considering to stand up paddle.

 Great All Around!,  Saturday, 02 January 2010 I Love It! The board is highly maneuverable and still let\'s me noseride; it\'s shockingly stable for its size; paddles really well catching waves; and has surprised me on how durable it is. What surprises me the most, however, about this Rusty Stand Up Paddle Surfboard model is how it keeps its speed through and through. The typical stall after hitting the white wash on a cut back is non-existent (the board shoots right through it and holds up the pace) and you simply fly when pumping down the line. The pulled in nose isn\'t that conducive for hanging tens, for instance, but it still let\'s you get some nice fives and the lack of volume on the tip allows you to draw pretty sharp turns.

 Great noserider with a touch of turn to it,  Saturday, 02 January 2010 The board works wonders on small breach break, excelling on the stability to walk the nose and the glide and lift you get once touching the tip. The glass and resin work are outstanding, unquestionably featuring some of the best craftsmanship you\'ll ever see on a surfboard. But if you want to crank that longboard off the tail, trying to drive some performance out of it on the turns, then this is not quite the longboard for you. It\'ll turn and work fairly well maneuvering the chops of a small beach break, but don\'t expect to draw very sharp turns. All in all, the missing link scores as an outstanding noserider with a touch of maneuverability to it while displaying basically unmatched craftsmanship.

 Excellent Surfboard Bike Rack,  Wednesday, 30 December 2009 SUMMARY. If you\'re looking for a bike rack that can manage different surfboard/board sizes and tote some extra material (like a towel, wetsuit, and more), then this is by far the best rack that I\'ve ever put to the test so far.

PROS. The fact that the Quiver Kaddy has a hitch that attaches to the seat bar, it (unlike the side rack) does not offset your balance, does not easily throw you off course from wind gusts, and allows you to travel at much faster speeds without having to worry about stability. The wheels on the kaddy are incredibly stable, and the axes extensions allow you to ensure that the kaddy does not tip as you are travling along (but obviously you have to go easy on the turns, as always). The pouch allows you to carry important surf accessories, like a towel, wetsuit, etc. And the racks can be adjusted to fit basically any size surfboard, from shortboard to stand up, and even to kayaks.

CONS. So far, I honestly don\'t have much to say on the negative side. The only problem I had was initially with the hitch that latches onto the seat bar. During my first trials, it broke. But Mark from Quiver Kaddy quickly replaced it and that problem hasn\'t happened again since. Overall, and here is the important point, if you\'re looking for a rack that can handle long rides and haul different size boards with some accessory in it as well, Quiver Kaddy is the choice rack.

 Excellent Stand Up Paddle Surfboard!,  Sunday, 25 October 2009 SUM. This is a perfect all around stand up paddle surfboard. It works excellently both off the tail and off the nose, offering a great mix between maneuverability and noseride-ability. This is a perfect match for riders seeking to take their performance to the next level.

PROS. The board is incredibly stable for its volume and dimensions (remember, relative to my size/6-1 and weight/190) and yet offers outstanding performance, being not only maneuverable and a fairly good noserider but also keeping its speed throughout all the ride. This surfboard, unlike your typical stick, does not stall when hitting the white water on a cutback and its always driving speed.

CONS. In the mix between maneuverability and noseride-ability, it leans more toward maneuverability, due to the relatively pulled in nose when compared to a traditional California noserider. Despite of easily allowing for hang-fives, hang-tens are relatively difficult to execute in comparison to boards with fully rounded noses.
