I bought the entity for more solid surf and haven't been disappointed. It draws the same lines as a fish, while allowing for deeper, tighter turns. I tried it with futures f6 + blackstix fins and HS generation series quads. The HS felt looser while also giving the board good drive (the blackstix felt a bit sluggish to me). Solid, quality construction, these boards are made to last. Highly recommended.

I am very happy with the the board so far. Looking forward to getting some better waves with it. This is my second Gary McNeill and I am again happy with the build quality.

I ordered this custom through Gary. He was easy to deal with and prompt with communication. I offered suggestions as to dimensions for a step up Entity Pin. He thought they sounded good so I went ahead. I got the stringerless PU with carbon rails. This board works so well as a step up. In bigger, hollower waves it just sticks on the face with the rail holding in. It still turns easily and is manoeuvrable, just less so than my daily shortboard, but that is to be expected. It also doesn't float/paddle as well as my shortboard, but that's a firewire helium that's insanely light and buoyant. It does duckdive a million times better. The quality of this board is excellent. It was packed perfectly for transport and my nearly hundred kilo weight hasn't compressed the deck in any way. Thoroughly recommended.

I've ridden over 70 boards all my life and the Entity is by far the best board I've ever ridden. Paddles easy, goes great in small surf and it's outstanding in bigger surf, I feel like everything I try to do comes out perfectly when I surf it. Addictive board.

This is a fantastic board for just taking out without knowing what its going to be like because it works in tonnes of different conditions. I would say that I find myself often wondering if I would've liked going a bit longer in order to make it work better for waves on the very small and very large end of the spectrum.

Without a doubt the entity is the best board I’ve ever owned. Gary is a magician when it comes to shaping boards. I’m so impressed I can honestly say I don’t think I’ll purchase boards from anywhere else again

This board is great! I've bought it as an all-rounder and have not been disappointed. Paddle power is better than expected and has increased my wave count for sure. The outline is a bit different in that it's narrow enough through the nose and has some tail lift to take steeper drops but rounder through the body giving some forgiveness and drive in smaller days. On top of all that the artwork is amazing and SPC construction seems really sturdy. Thanks Gary!

Super fun board. Despite it's small size, it is a really drivey solid feeling board. Doesn't get up speed that quickly on flatter waves, it seems to need a hollower or bigger wave to get that tail lift happening for it to feel loose, once you have a bit of speed though, its really fast and responsive and holds a solid rail through turns. Paddles really well for a small board.

Beautifully shaped board! Super stable and a paddling machine. I got it as a five fin for the versatility but have been riding it mostly as a quad which gives it awesome drive.
