Thanks for all the info. I’m looking at the cruise carbon 12’. Is it worth buying the newer model cruise carbon over the older model (which is available heavily discounted here in the US)? It seems as though the specs and main features are fairly similar. Thanks!
Yes and no... The newer boards are a fair bit lighter, which makes them much easier to move around. But it all depends on what year of boards they are selling?? The ones we reviewed in this video, the weights were pretty good. But year before that they were alot heavier! Does this help? Thanks Reuben
There are no current plans to review the iRocker / black fin range yet, however we do have the iRocker Ultra in the compact iSUP test coming out on SUPboarder PRO in the next few weeks. We always suggest you reach out directly to the brand and ask for SUPboarder to review products as this sometimes helps give the brands a nudge. Thanks, Beau
We put he Nitro in one of our latest Performance Touring tests on SUPboarder Pro and it had a deflection of 10mm which is pretty stiff. Watch read full test here on Pro : supboardermag.com/2024/07/29/14-x-28-performance-touring-isup-2024-supboarder-pro-head-to-head/ Hope that helps Reuben

Great video! Do you plan to also review the new irocker/blackfin range? The ultra series seems interesting.

Not sure if being thick, got a cruise 2023 and the paddle I can’t twist the clasps to tighten like could on original model?
Hey ,ok they might of changed them, so you will have to tighten with a screw driver instead. Thanks Reuben
Will you be reviewing the new 2023 bluefin boards?
Which board would you like to be reviewed? This video covers the range and gives an overview of what to expect. Thanks,
@SUPboardermag they now have the extra light one out and kayaks, would love those reviewed too. Not much info on them on their website 😊
