just a quick note here on this point:
Dani was involved on the final R&D on the 2014 boards, on all sizes including the smaller ones - being involved means not deciding alone how boards go into production, but he had a leading position in the R&D, assisted by a group of riders including PV, who gave input. Feedback at the time, as well as now, is that the bigger boards with newer cut-outs are considerably more free and faster than the previous versions. Perhaps you need a different trim, but certainly so far sales are actually better than on the 2013 board and rider feedback is more positive, even with only smaller changes.
I think it is not very fair to write on an open forum about the work of someone who is working in the industry since some time, who has had already considerable success with World Champions riding his shapes etc....but that´s up to everyone on an "open" forum and certainly each is welcome to his opinion. (imagine you read the same comment about yourself/your work on an open forum). We could not be happier with Dani´s work and committment. And we´ve been in the business for a few years.
