I'm going to write a review here to see how our North American boards stand up to the mighty K...

UPS just delivered the NSR 185...

198mm waist, "CST" sidecut ;)

The line-up so far...

That top-sheet is stellar. And a sweet project you have ahead of you this winter.

Very nice!

Why does it look like there are some raised ridges near the middle of the Kessler near the inserts?

Indeed. I dig the topsheet, it's a new stock design, done by Bruce's regular guy.

Carbon laminates underneath. Exaggerated by side lighting.

Why the difference in waist width? Wouldn´t it be better, if the specs of the boards were as similar as possible?

But anyway, very nice rides indeed :D.

Yeah, I was pretty loose on the specs with Bruce. I just told him to make me a copy of the one that I tried, which IIRC was like 20.2cm, so I figured that was close enough to the Kessler's 20.5cm. But this came in a c-hair narrower. I'm not too worried about it, I'm not picky about stance angles or waist widths. I've ridden and loved 18 to 21cm boards.
