Skater should be at the same time as the kites. Naish usually launch boards in the fall as far as I can remember. I can't wait to see what the changes are.

As someone said above the Dash is a mid-season release. The one that is out now is stellar IMO.

I have put my new 8m Pivot on top of the 2017. The only difference seems to be the trailing edge. No dacron anymore, but doubled with canopy cloth in that shark teeth fashion. Looks like that this year it is about weight optimization. I am curious if I will feel any difference when flying.
