Just incredible
I bought one of these 2 weeks ago after having a really fustrating surf I was getting so annoyed in a crowed line up not getting into waves and not enjoying surfing a short board so after 2 phone calls with Ian I settled on a 6'8 I weigh 84kg and normally surf East Coast of England so our waves are not the best I have since surfed this board in all types of waves and I could not be more happy in over head clean waves it felt so good fast flowing carves but step on the tail and you can still hit the lip in waist high waves it was super smooth it paddles like a dream getting me into waves early and easly maintain speed and flow I even paddled out one day on some onshore really messy shoulder high waves more to just get in the water but was amazed at how well the board did just seems like there is nothing this board won't do so I have now sold all my other boards as I just know already I am never going to take them out over this and bought my self a new long board that way when I get to the beach I have very easy desicion to make under waist high I am going out on the long board any thing else I am out on this. Massive thanks to ian for his advice after trying loads of different boards over the last 2 years I have finally found the one and could not be happier

Wow
Great first experience of Boardshop! The buying process was easy, even during these strange times. Had some good advice from Matt and my new OBE 7’2” arrived intact wrapped in a cocoon of bubble wrap and cardboard. Finally got some waves after an interminably long flat spell.
I surfed on two consecutive days in crowded, average 2-3ft waves. The board lives up to its billing! It is a fast paddler, so you get loads of waves and it is light and responsive to surf.
On Matt’s advice I fitted it with two FCS II NEO Glass performer quad rears and a 7” FCS II PC Connect rear fin. Having started with the rear fin in the centre of the box I moved it right forward and felt this was best for the conditions. Very impressed and I look forward to getting out in some bigger surf.

Couldn't be more stoked :)
When i received the board I was so disappointed... DHL had f~##ed up the nose. Fortunately Boardshop runs a tight service ship and they handled this like true gentlemen.
This morning I picked up my 6'6 from my local repairshop, slapped on a tailpad, installed a 6.5 single with 3.5 sidebites and waxed that beauty for her maiden voyage.
The 1.5x overhead sets with 30m/s onshore wind bashing the Dutch coast were the perfect conditions to put her to the test.
Paddled like a longboard, ducked like a shortboard... from the get go I felt in control and she handled like a dream on my first wave. This is a brilliant board and perfect choice for me! I'm 1.79 m, 75 kg, my go to shortboard is a Pyzel Shadow 6'1 and I couldn't be more stoked :)

Mark Phipps OBE 6'10 4+1
I'm wary of writing surfboard reviews for a few reasons. They are unavoidably subjective, inevitably they contain an element of confirmation bias and most importantly I don't believe I know enough about the nuances of board building and riding to advise a prospective purchaser on how to spend their hard earned cash. That being said...every bit of hype you've heard, watched or read about this board is probably true. It GOES!

Feel like I’ve progressed my surfing more this morning than in the whole of last year.
Hey Matt and Dave,
Surfed my new One Bad Egg today over here in Ireland - so happy with it! Particularly on my back hand, the speed and control is insane. Feel like I’ve progressed my surfing more this morning than in the whole of last year. Also had a few comments on my surfing/board which has never happened before.
Thanks for the advice on fins too - they feel perfect.
Have a good Christmas!

Took my 7'10"OBG for its first surf today in less than ideal conditions for the type of board, but good enough to get a feel for the potential. The board felt refined, sensitive and very fast. Overall a quality product. Mark replied to a question regarding fins overnight!

7'6 One bad egg
Matthew advised me to go for the 7'6 as Im 17 stone and what fins to order. Surfed the board in waist high clean conditions but did not get on with the board, found it hard to paddle into waves and once up it seemed to lack drive to make the section. Second surf in slightly above waist clean waves , felt I had better paddling speed after I adjusted my position on the board. More paddle speed meant more waves and started to feel the performance in the board as its narrower and thinner than anything I've surfed before!!
Third surf was today in head high with the odd bigger set and clean again, the board flew!!! Paddling into waves before the short boarders ,much better paddle speed, good speed down the face and even managed a few back hand turns! Definitely felt that the board was living up to the reviews by the guys at Boardshop. Thanks Matthew for the advice on the size and fins , will be keeping the board for surf which is head high + as it came alive in these conditions. Also it duck dives like a dream !!!

Outstanding surfboard
Within half an hour of surfing this board, I was already thinking of selling some/all my other boards. It catches waves like a longboard and rides like a short board. I haven’t been this excited about surfing in years!

Best board ever!
Thanks to Boardshop.
Great company,
My board arrived Thursday and I have to say it looked amazing.
I had it in the water Friday and it was so much fun to surf.
Looking forwards to two weeks in Cornwall!

Great service, great board
I have plenty go short boards but was looking for a replacement of my mini mal, something more responsive and agile. Went for the 6:10 in grey and the board has not disappointed so far. Easy paddle ins, holds loads of speed and is loose enough to smash it off the lip, cut back or just charge down the line. Used in shoulder to head high surf, looking forward to trying it something a little bigger. Thanks again.
