The Stealth Grenade has got to be one of the best value boards going round! The PE core is generally suited to Mid- Cool Climates and water conditions, but with all the features of this board it should be suitable for most conditions, and is the perfect board for those looking to take their riding to the next level. Double Stringers ensure this board will take a flogging. It also comes with channels to aid performance in hollow waves.

I went for this model because of the claimed, 'PE core is a favourite among those who like some extra flex in their board and is also great for cold waters when you want extra flex in the board right away.'
I live in Tas, where in cooler water temps, other cores can sometimes feel too stiff. I took the Stealth, TOUR - PE TENSION TECH out for a run first up at my local reef, at pretty punchy 3 to 4ft. Although the board felt a bit slippery (as new boards always do, even after a warm shower and good coating of wax) it's smaller size, (I went for a 41) manoeuvrability, and flex, slung the thing and me, through some deep tubes. What I noticed about the board was, it felt really sure and steady in the hands and held surprisingly well in the barrel; it seemed very fast through a bottom turn.
I haven't used it again yet in other wave conditions, but I suspect this board will be a go too in solid, punchy stuff, but I'll opt for something larger in lower quality waves.
Rides exactly how it's described when in the barrel the board comes to life, yeew! yeew!
