Rode Cody's Blaster today with the CarterB full front/rear mods, big pump tunnel, and footholds. First time really riding a Blaster since 2013 when I built my first standup. Since then anytime I try a blaster its a 5 minute ride and I'm done... Too bulky and slow handling. This ski was amazing! Slashes hard like a standup, recovers easily from sloppy riding on the face of a wave. Flips and rolls like a standup (I can check those off my bucket list now) unbelievable how well it handles and how it changes a blaster from a big slow pig into a nimble flickable surf weapon. For a second I even considered owning a blaster again while riding it. Stoke level was high!!
