The G&W Bora is my main piece on the F now. It is so comfortable and flexible, and provides a large, focused sound with the ability to play into the stratosphere and play the low stuff as if you were playing a Porker on a CC.
The Churada is even better for solo work, but I like the all around feeling of the Bora on my F tuba. I have been using the Churada on my bass trombone and am making sounds I didn't think were possible, and playing up high for a b/bone. I can play Bb above middle C easily on both the bass trombone and the F.
Of course, I can play even higher on the Yorkbrunner with the Bayamo. Who knew?
