your momentum is 132 x 41, my dlx is 134 x 41. i'd say, stick with the momentum, get some sessions on it, and then upgrade to the 136 if you're struggling. the momentum has some rocker (definitely the most in the Naish line of that year at least)....give it a shot and see how you like it.

Wait Rob, you have the green one right? That's 136. The red one is 140.

That's funny, but how does it perform on the mud? I'd like to have a smooth ride back to the beach when it's low tide, upwind if possible
