love the displaced hull on this board, cuts through wake great. and it’s stable enough to paddle with my 70lb dog, too.
But the plastic coating started to show small bubbles within a few months. i called Yolo, and they made note of it.
And now, a couple years in, the plastic “hammerhead” coating is loose from the board throughout much of the board. YHIS BOARD IS GARAGE KEPT AND CLEANED OFTEN AFTER EXCURSIINS. too late now for a warranty. I can still paddle it, but very very disappointed in the short life of a “hammerhead.”I have a Boardworks board with a similar plastic shell that is still adhered and solid, and it is 3 years older.
I would consider another one of these boards if I could guarantee the construction.
I love what Yolo stands for, but not impressed with their construction.
Perhaps it was a covid era fluke.
And this is my heaviest board. would like to see it slightly lighter in future models
