Best board i have ever owned hands down.. Bought as a step up with the Pin Tail as we had some travel plans and i paired them with Garys Quad fins.. The fins with the board just work. I havent tried anything different and i won't. Covid stuffed my travel plans but whenever a big swell hits the sunny coast i reach for this board. I messaged Gary after my first surf. Mindblown at how well the thing paddles, how it turns, how stable it is and how it just loves sitting in the pocket. I Have had some of the surfs of my life on this board already and couldnt recommend it enough. i got it in PU Construction with a thicker deck glassing and Garys suggested Dims for me. He hid the foam really well. Just go get one you ll love it

Awesome board. Easy paddle due to the deceptive volume under the chest with the rolled deck. Fast, carves turns - just a great board. Had plenty of comments about a really nice shape. Love it!

This is a great all round board. Good volume under the chest for paddle power and stability when its small. Trims nicely. Decent rocker and turning power on steeper bigger swell but still a sweet solid ride. Tucks in nicely when its hollow too. Stunning artwork and top quality finish like all the Gary boards. A whole lot of fun and makes me feel like a better surfer than I am :)

Great board for the bigger surf. Solid under foot and draws beautiful lines. I’d ride it in anything over chest to head high. I was seriously impressed with the construction methods. Strong and durable delivering bang for buck and better for the environment.

Amazing board. Immediately increased my wave count without losing anything in terms of performance. The Gary McNeill quads are a great addition to this board also. Cheaper than the Rasta quads and better quality.

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.
