Inferno, FYI a few guys down here ride Naish Floater TT in the surf. its got volume and fat surfboard-like rails.
BigR's right, i recently was at Jetty Park in cocoa. Winds dead-onshore west at 15-20mph . Id catch a wave and kite fall out of the sky unless i did cut-back...looping kite would help but i need more practice looping. i was using my 5'10" twinzer custom w/strapped front foot and my GK Sonic 11m(not a great kite for waves IMO) i much rather ride sideshores and ride waves downwind/get a ride back up....that way my kite stays moving and powered while riding the wave.
