GEAR : feedback CM 9' !!!

Raphfly shares with us his impressions about the Couine Marie 9′ :
“Hello,
After seeking advice on the forum, I ordered the CM 9′ Monday morning, received this morning, two days later. The GONG service is still effective.
The first unpacking impressions :
-Bag is really nice, the class, I love elastic for the pump. Really big improvement in quality.
-The board is beautiful, more beautiful than the old pad. The finish of the board is better, different plastic compares to my 12’6 CM.
Inflation :
-The pump is much better than the older, faster, scales well pressure (that’s normal), but especially the new gasket that holds well the pressure that blew me away.
-The Board is really concrete to the touch.
Test on flat water :
-I took this board primarily for surfing and training on the flat when I have no time. It is in this configuration that I tested it.
-It fits very well with what I expected. The board is stable as soon as we are in the middle (more stable than CM12’6). More row but that’s normal, I can refine my rowing technique. About the speed, it goes slower, obviously, but that’s normal.
I can not wait to try it out to sea to test it in its dedicated program.
The slight rise in prices due to the euro-dollar parity is largely offset by the significant increase in quality of all proposed. The value for money is simply unbeatable. Nice team work. In the spirit of the forum, I would not make a comparison with the boards of the other well known brands and more expensive, but it would be crazy to spend more.”
