Looking for a board to fill the gap between my fish and log. One option is the Neilson Cheetah model. Does anyone ride one and have feedback? Other options? Thanks in advance.

I don't know what the cheetah model is but my board is a Neilson. He makes great boards.

Neilson seemed to be retiring, but he's been making and selling boards ever since. Good.

Haven't ridden the Cheetah, but I know Tom mentioned it's a mid-length with performance surfing in mind.

Tom is still shaping amazing boards and doing customs, hit him up through his website:

I'll let him know this thread exists so hopefully he can chime in.

Last shameless promotion for Tom

The Inventory on his website is usually pretty current and he's got a 7'0" Cheetah on there along with a bunch of other mid-lengths you could probably go put your hands on and check out in person.
