Absolutely loving this board as my step up but can still take it out in all conditions. The board comes into its own when riding anything above 3 foot whether it pitching or crumbly. Great to paddle into waves and I have never had a board that feels so stable under foot.

The Ando goes really well in waves around 2-6 ft. The outline is a little wider than your standard shortboard which I like for progressing my surfing in most conditions. The rails are a little fuller than I expected but this board still works really well!

I'm an Ex-Skateboarder. This is the board I've been looking for the whole time I've been surfing. I've ridden a bevy of seconds and store bought performance and fish models. However, nothing compares to to my inaugural custom shaped performance model from Hayden Shapes - The Ando. There's no other way to describe it apart from being my Magic Carpet Ride! Through each top turn/hit it allows me front foot grace to draw necessary speed into the next turn to re approach the lip again and again. The finesse and suitability of this design has allowed me to progress my ability and massively enhance my style in a short space of time. I'm a Dad of 2 kids born 11 years apart and my time in the ocean has varied over the last 2 years. Any chance I get these days I'm frothing, not only because I can get out there, but cause I can get out there and really enjoy my time performance wise. On a trip down south to Diggers Camp, NSW, my mates commented how comfortable I looked riding the back beach of Sandon Point, saying how much they felt my enjoyment. The Ando is definitely the shape for me. Got me Riding for my Life! Cheers to Hayden Shapes and the Boardcave for proving that "you can't buy happiness but you can buy a surfboard" and in every turn its the same deal! :))

I surf the ando around 2-5ft beachies and reefies and I'm absolutely loving it. It has heaps of take off speed but controllable to do turns off the lip and in the pocket, I recently landed my first little re entry air which I couldn't get on my old board but the ando flus over the lip, sick all round board.

I use this board as step up from my 6ft DHD Skeleton Key. I’ve only surfed the sweet spot 4 times but changing between boards is seemless. The waves were quality, powerful, head high to 2ft+ overhead. The sweet spot performs exactly as described. It feels good through turns and holds its line perfectly in hollow sections. I’m more than confident it would go even better in bigger surf.

This board is awesome.. Use this board for the bigger waves in south west oz. I added a little width for a bit more stability, don't know if I actually needed it but the board rides sick. First day out on this board the wave gods gave me a little over head high barrels. I got cover many times and made it out on all of them! How could I not love this board!

Really easy to pick up waves, excellent stability on take off, great manouverabilty. This is an excellent board for 40 - 60+ surfer who wants to continue with a performance board. The volume and extra width make it easier to get into the wave without loss of performance. I snapped my board by landing on it from 6 ft up (not the boards fault), I ordered the same board as a replacement.

This board is excellent! At first I thought it might not be wide enough for someone of my age but I have been pleasantly surprised. This board has outstanding maneuverability and paddling is a breeze. Simply put, it is an outstanding product of Australian craftsmanship!
