I posted chris's 10' with the glass on tri in here a few weeks back when he wanted to sell it. The speed master is off of an old Skip one of the Moonlight glassers got from @Hanger18 a while back. It's wider than the chris craft from what I've seen and is more of a speedshape than a "big board". Personally, I like my boards heavy and the Chris Craft felt funny to me as it was 11' and felt really light (i like the rail engagement when turning to be less cork-y). Speedmaster: It's definitely more maneuverable and made to give you paddle power as well as that long trimming rail without sacrificing the turnability that you sometimes get with boards over 10' If I think of any more info or end up riding one I'll update, but for East Coast I'd probably go with the speedmaster with tri fins(?) for the maneuverability in beach break conditions. Edit: TLDR thinking of a Chris Craft under 11'? Think abt getting a Speedmaster. The 11' CC felt like it was 10' when compared to my 11' eagle. Click to expand... This makes sense. I'll throw it out there and correct me if I'm out of line but the Cliff Pin had a lot of glidery feels to it as well. I ran mine with a smaller fin in soft RI summer waves and it was a trim machine. With a bigger fin it started to inch more longboard-esque.
