FEEDBACK: CARTER 7’3

Pascal shares with us his point of view as an intermediate surfer on his new Carter in 7’3.

“Soft conditions, 80cm-120cm but clean. I should point out that I have been surfing for two years only so my opinion remains very subjective! I also have a BatMob in 6’10 that I use in this type of conditions.

Here’s my review (compared to the BatMob):

• higher wave count;
• obviously easier to paddle but I feel like I’m pushing less water than with the BatMob;
• it floats the same but I very quickly found the point of balance on the Carter, unlike the BatMob where I struggled a bit to position myself well, neither too forward nor too far back;
• the big difference I noticed is the speed and therefore the responsiveness. This must be largely due to the extra length? But I find the Carter livelier, “finer” in surfing and therefore less bulky than the BatMob.
