the 05's Dragons looks promising, the largest one is 43cm wide, how would it be as a light wind board and would it rank as a fast board?
How would it compare to JP Large?
thanks
North Dragon L 2005? Anyone ridden it?

Don't know about the O5's but I ride an 2004 M and there is another rider I know who rides a 2004L (he's around 210#). Dragons use really deep fins and like more rear foot pressure compared to other boards, but when powered properly they truck upwind and pop with the best of them. Light and durable. Biggest gripe is sea grass getting caught on the steep angle fins (like windsufing fins). One blade of grass and the fin is useless. Pain in the ass.
