WOW!! Fell in love with this board when I borrowed it. It was fast, stable, smooth, and beautiful. It tracked nicely which was nice because I was able to paddle on the same side for a while then switching. It was also very light and pleasing to look at. I loved the cockpit area where you stand. It was recessed downward and made the board feel more stable. It cut through the water effortlessly. The VMAX was just awesome! I've demo'ed a few boards now and really love the cruiser/touring/race style board from Cruiser. I have really got more excited about SUPing now. It's really fun to go back and forth on the lake fast. This is a board I can grow into. Watch out, I'm coming for ya!
Pros
This board has it all. I loved every aspect of this board. It was really smooth and quiet over the water. Very peaceful, but fast. Now I want one, but don't have the room to store a normal board, so I am buying the VMax Air which is the inflatable version. I know it's not quite the same performance since the hard version has a v-style hull and an edge down the middle for better tracking vs inflateable version has a flat bottom, but is still pointy to cut through the water. Supposed to be Cruiser's fastest inflatable at 23lbs. Add in a Cruiser carbon paddle and a Bravo high pressure electric pump and I'm set. I will leave a review on the iSUP when I get it shortly.
Cons
NONE. Actually, one problem, I don't have room for it!!! LOL
Usage
I got to borrow this VMax from a very generous woman on the lake one day. I felt honored to use the board for a bit and fell in love with it instantly. It's definitely a racing board and I would love to win some races with it!!!
Love this board! Very good…

Love this board! Very good glide and stability. I take my dog (40 pounds) and the board compensates well when she decides to hang ten (actually eight). Love the looks of this board and the bamboo totally rocks! Can't wait to try it in surf. The board is a comfortable ride; even for a full day on the water.
Pros
Everything; this board is the total package!
Cons
At this price, it should come with a leash.
Usage
Exercise, fun, and bonding with my dog.
