Well...I finally pulled the trigger on a soft top board. Eight footer too.
I have an eight foot fun board but it's a traditional fiberglass and foam board and sometimes having the extra bouyancy a soft top offers gives you more options for our smaller summer surf.
I'm an Amazon prime customer so it will be here on Thursday. Normal delivery (for normal people) would have been 1-2 weeks.
Here's the model I chose.....the rasta livery!
