Great board. It’s very versatile, I have ridden it up to 5 feet in a solid cyclone swell with no issues. It also works well in small surf. I have the EPS and I have tried it as a quad and a 2 + 1. I like it as a quad best with the JJF fins up front and the QD2 rears. I have also tried the Rasta quad and the Rasta 2 + 1. I probably could have gone a couple of inches shorter as I didn’t realise how well this board paddles. I am very happy with the Pyzel quality and I have since bought the Ghost.

I got this board off the rack for winter surf at my local. The first thing that's unique is how the foam is brought forward up into the nose. More than your average HPSB but looking at the foil it's well balanced overall. Riding: the first thing you notice is its paddle power. Great for spots with long paddles and gets you into waves better than most HPSB boards. If I got this custom, I would definitely drop the thickness by 1/4" but honestly, once surfing off the tail it's easy to forget about. The tail rocker and foil through the back half are refined and makes the ride smooth and maneuverable. I've ridden it from chest to overhead and it's a solid ride that makes you feel confident. I rode Futures JJF and Captn. Fin Dane fins and while the Dane fin is solid and predictable, the JJF fins feel freer and responsive. Overall, it's a nice good wave board that can handle power.

With the right wave this board absolutely flies! Equally as good for turns and barrels! Highly recommended!!

Bought this board from Boardcave 5 years ago and finally getting around to throwing a review on the site haha! I recall wanting a board with a shorter wider outline that's good for punts and punchy waves. Opted for a custom a little wider with a round tail, I'd recommend sticking with the stock dims. Overall this board was great and fit the description. Gave it a good belting and it lasted. Boys at Boardcave do an unreal job too, great service!

This is a great board. Easy to paddle and will turn on the rail. Surfed it in Indo in 3-4ft and was unreal. Highly recommend it, especially if your on the bigger side like me:-)

I prefer this board when the waves get around head high with a bit of push. Then it is a fun, turny board suitable for most wave types. When the waves are smaller it sticks a bit.....but that's probably because I am old and heavy. Was great in the Mentawais.

This is a great performance board of excellent quality. I did a lot of research before I picked this board and dimensions and I must say that I am really happy. It simply delivers. A really quick board which can drive even out of white wash to the open face. Great for late takeoffs and slabby beachies.
