I have a custom made one from Tarifa.
It's 145x44 I think and has a bit more rocker, has more channeling, and it's stiffer than most boards of these size.
I really like to train kitelooping in light winds paired with my Enduro 14m but past 15 knots turns into a really rough ride, time to change to Shinn Ronson 138, that's it.

Shinn Bronq Q XL is amazing in all the three sizes 146x46 148x47 and 150x50
Google it, some boards are still to be sold, Shinn doesn't renewed it!

If you are in Europe check
https://saulcustom.com/
you can contact the guy and tell him exactly what you need, and get a carbon board with the size and properties that suit your style of riding.

Hi mass898.
Did you buy a board?
bought the epic oxygen. Fingers crossed.
Feedback time.
Went out today for the first time with the epic oxygen and EVO SLS 11m. 12-14 knots conditions, maybe even lighter.
SO FUN
I was basically the only one that could go upwind (except a lady with a 12m kite, i suspects she was also 30kg lighter..)
People of various weight with 14m and 17m kites and struggling big times.
overal seemed to be a perfect addition.

Happy to hear you liked the Oxygen! Like the Nobile XTR or the Bronq Q XL mentioned earlier in the thread, the wide but short boards I think are magic for having actual fun in light wind!
