Cube away, 13/7*(2) seems too passive, letting opp anchor too often. Much better looking single hit seems to be 8/2*(2).

The double hit 13/7* 5/2*(2) looks ugly with all these holes. Opp often enters at least one and we will often have to hit loose, risking getting hit with equal boards.

I'd go with the classic blitzing choice of an additional point instead of 2nd hit. 8/2*(2). Looks safer long-term, and the board is a big asset in case of hit exchange, too. To me it's worth extra 5 shots now. I don't think it wins much less gammons than the double hit, as opp dances a lot right away.
