I bought this board last summer. Costume made including name and phone number for when you lose it and it was ready in 4 working days. Extremely good board, by far the best board I have ever tested, especially in choppy oceans. Huge upwind possibilities, good pop and very light.

My 136 was red, but I do prefer the blue.

I use self adhesive name tags from
www.sea-id.com with my name, mobile number, and email address.

Have to agree...wasn't willing to pay the extra money for a personalized at the time!
Also created my own stickers with name address/phonenumber and even email address...allows for reselling your board and able to create the fonts and style you like

Indeed SP boarding customs pads.
I have not had time to take the pads out yet.
At home I did notice they are wayyyy tighter and locked in then anything I have tried before.
For bare foot that probably works out fine. I am not sure how well it works with my boots.
It will fit but doing board-offs or getting into them after a crash might get tricky because they are a bit of a squeeze to get into.
I would probably buy one size larger then based on recommended their sizing next time.
