I bought the AHD 267 Pro Convert about a month ago and love it!! Its
very fast and manueverable. It alsocan be used in a wide range of
conditions.
I do know that Mistral makes a good board as well in the Screamer
design. I've got the Screamer 278.

Eddie:

I sailed the Screamer 268 for several days in Islamorada - using 5.5 and 6.5 M
sails.  It is a really easy board to sail and jibe.  To me is seemed like a
really smooth ride thru the chop - although there wasn't much to speak of.

However, I would not buy it without trying out the AHD 267 Pro Convert first.
(Talk to Darren who has sailed both).  My guess is that the Mistral is an
easier board to sail, but ultimately less capable that the AHD.
