I wasn't very lucky with my front Longboard. It picks up a lot of surface water and accelerates it
up the mudguard where it comes out the sides just at the right height to deposit it on your feet.
Keeps the underside of the frame clean though.
It's also pretty wobbly at the bottom and mine eventually snapped off. I attached a large
mudflap and it deflects the water much closer to the ground so it never reaches my feet.

I'm just about to replace my Chromoplastics with Longboards. The C's have served me well but only after I fashioned my own mudflaps to be quite a bit longer than the standard ones, which particularly left my feet prone to getting wet when there is lots of surface water, hopefully something which the Longboards will deal with better. Not used Bluemels but looking at them I reckon the Longboards will give better coverage.
