Used ripper. the graphics are faded so we sanded them out. Th eva foam deck is very comfy on the skin, and ahas excellent grip when wet. This board is the first board wher all components and footstrap positioning actually fit kids properly. Fast and stable. Ideal for kids to learn on ( flat water) ages 1-9. Ideal higher performance board for all ages up to 14. excellent short board for mom and da and bigger kids who sail on footstraps and are comfortable waterstarting. The rig is a 1.5 - 2.0 sail designed for kids, very light, with a special purpose adjustable clamp on boom, super light mast, all the best stuff for kids, the same good stuff we use in our successful camps.
