Got one and love it. Wave count went way up and have done probably the best surfing of my life on it. It gets into waves so easily. Ignore the thing at the end about 109kg dude riding 34.5L. That’s actually a joke. 0.316L per kg of body weight is stupidly low. Aim for 0.35-0.37. The overwhelming majority of pros will fit into that so if you want a little extra go 0.38. I’m 95kg surfing 34.5L in my rad ripper. 0.36 per KG for me and 0.35 on my good wave board

Board looked too small seemed to bog and rail line was lackluster

[briacfourmigue]

the explanation was better than the other joyride keep it up

[roostersurf]

Those sizes should be in perfect waves I’m 5’9 165lbs I ride Lost boards at 29L in average daily surf. 28L when firing.

5'2"?!!! Holy shit at 140lbs any wave is gonna float ya. Also, looks like he's fighting the tail in some of those turns. I wonder how that size planing area can really turn in the smaller pockets

[andyblanchard]

The main take away from this video is that Mikey C rips!!!!

[bonsummers]

Looks like the board should be longer or wider or both.

Paddles like a dream and super fun but my 5'5 has been dinged pretty bad twice in my first week of riding. Have only been in max 3ft beach mush. PU stock dims but definitely think it needed to be glassed thicker!!

Cool board.
Nive you got the oompa loompa to test it out.

[MrBiggestEggs]

Pffft 6'1 and 200lbs on 30 litres? Maybe if you're a world class shredder.

[surfteam]

when you say Milcheal is 140lbs, is that with wetsuit on?

[dayatparko]

If i 5.8 120 lbs, what size and volume should i ride?

[dane]

haha, they removed review from the title becouse people never read the video descriptions

[buildyourdream]

mase rode this at stab high. must be good for airs?

[JohnCarrFitness]

Looks like his volumes too low honestly

[JeffFadness]

That board looks good under your feet.

[Jetty-xdyc]

I love a good front side no grab punt as much as most. But you youngins need to stop chop hopping and go back to learning how to lay down a rail first.

[genwoyt]

What does "Zip" mean? Can anyone explain it to me please

[felipebrock]

for a 5, 7 guy 143lbs who surf nothing above 6 ft beach breaks, what's the size to go on?

[Hibbard]
