I never thought I'd get the level of performance from a 
"long" board that the 8'8" is giving me. So many longer boards are for 
perching. I always knew hulls were different, but they are way 
different. This board has put a level of stoke back into my surfing that
 I didn't even know was missing. That 14-year-old's thrill of just 
paddling out and being a real "Surfer". 
I'll try the 1/8" 
back and see. Interesting that it's really close to the suggested 11" 
that you and Greg and Spencer said to start at. Moving it around has 
really taught me a lot about the board.
My friend Drew just 
sent me an email and commented  that he was impressed by my late drops, 
so I guess I wasn't delusional. At least for a few minutes.  ;0)
Thanks ,
George
