Great good wave board for a big guy
As a 17 stone guy that can surf I’ve struggled to find a HPSB below the 7’ mark. Traditional high performance shapes end up too long when blown up to my volume, especially when I need a couple of extra litres for average waves in the UK, wearing a 5mm wetsuit. I’ve been to very good local shapers, but always end up compromising with a more hybrid shape to reduce the length and pack in the volume. Other than the Rusty Panda, which I couldn’t easily get hold of in the UK and some guy in the US shaping boards for big guys, this is the first high volume HPSB that I’ve seen for a big guy that can surf.
I’ve surfed this quite a bit now and for me it is definitely an excellent good wave board. It goes really well in head high+ clean waves and it is refreshing to have such a responsive board after years of compromise, trying to pack in the volume. As you would expect from such a refined shape, it is quite unforgiving and won’t go as well in not so good waves. You need to be able to surf and have a half decent wave for this board to really come alive.
To summarise, I would highly recommend this to a bigger guy that can surf, who is looking for a HPSB to use when the waves are pumping. If you’re coming down from bigger boards and looking to push your surfing I would not recommend this and steer you more toward more of a hybrid shape.

One board quiver
After putting on a few extra kilos and not seeming to be having as much fun when the surf was pumping I soon realised I needed a bigger board! After doing some research I decided this was the board that ticked most boxes and would be happy to use in any conditions home or abroad! I’ve only used it once and so far so good! I’m yet to test it in real good waves but I’m confident this will be a great board!

paddles so well and still surfs good
was persuaded into buying this board by Ian at boardshop, wasn't looking at it to start with just wanted more waves and still have a board that surfs good. Surfed it 7 or 8 times over the last 2 weeks its on fire, so so easy to paddle and catch waves on but moves like a proper shortboard, super stoked thanks guys
