Adam Brightwell commented on jason beakes's blog post 'Review of the Axiom 8.5'
I agree, the Axiom is a sweet boat. I was finally able to get into mine (9.0) for the first time this week since I bought it back in March, as I am recovering from a broken wrist. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to play in the surf with it…

While TRR's growth is exciting, what has been inspirational is the…See More
