New Hobie model introduced today

I wish there was a low position for the seat, I'd feel better going in and out of surf if there was. I took it out stock with the ST fins and it moved along about like an Outback, bow is a little more piercing so a little quieter than the Outback. Turbo fins would be a good option to gain some cruising speed with a slower cadence.

I'm pretty sure I've decided when its time to update my Ride 135, I'm getting a Hobie.

Not sure that time will ever come, but when it does........

My son agreed about the turbo fins. We were side by side, me on my 2016 PA14 and him on the Compass. I was at a casual pace and he was spinning out. Other than that he loved it.

Interesting, I assumed the Compass would be a good amount quicker than the Outback since the bow is more aggressive. Thanks for the info.
