Tried out Carve 99 I'm buying from Worldwinds. Rides very much like the 111, but feels like it tracks better. I hated the fin, and couldn't jibe or really feel 100% confident because it felt like a wrong twitch would break it loose. Ended up buying the board right away because I liked the 111 a lot. Hopefully the 99 will last longer. Mitchell should graduate to the 111 pretty soon.
