High quality manufacture and made on time. Love this board not only does it look great it has tons of speed, grip on the rail and easy to turn and holds the rail. It is surprisingly stable which makes it less twitchy while the shorter length still allows for easy speed adjustment and turns.

So nice, I bought it twice. The creme of the crop, as good as a performance board can get. Absolute awesome board. The rails hold the pocket on steep super sucky waves so well. Perfect amount of rocker allowing for late drops and carving on a dime. The board loves straight "up and down" style surfing as in coming straight up to a snap then dropping to a quick smooth bottum turn and hitting the lip straight up even harder. It surfs soooo fast. Awesome drive and loves to be sent off the lip. My Airs have gotten bigger so I creased the last one. The newer one I got has been made to a higher quality than the last and I'm in love. I'll be soon to order another so I won't be left without again. I've ridden high end performance boards from JS, DHD, Al Merrick and this is by far the best. I'm a bit more of a front foot surfer, surfing mostly dredging beachies and felt right at home on this weapon. Its not a great board for below 2ft mush, but surfing under that isn't much fun anyway. Can't recommend enough, cannot fault this board. Couple it with the Toledo M fins and its a match made in heaven.

Set mine up as a quad. Easy to paddle, picks up waves nicely, gets up and goes down the line, nice and quick with forward foot placement, move back on the tail and it snaps around. Great overall performance. Very forgiving.

Fun board for mid range 3-4ft beach breaks, super stable, great for sitting in the pocket, getting barrelled and just cruising.

I found the Churro to be a solid construction and the glass job held up very well under some bigger waves. Also the turning ability is spot on and it is quite a responsive board

Fantastic groveller. Best board I have had so far. They really nailed it with this board. I found that the turning ability is surprisingly fast but solid and holds well in anything between 1-5 ft

This board was described to me as Stacey's attempt of creating a skateboard surfboard and it delivered in some of the worst South Australian coastal waters very well! It holds it own when the waves get bigger but I would not want to have it in anything over 4-5 ft waves with power as the thick rails can be abit too skatey and not grip too well. I found the difference between twin and thruster werent too significant but it may also be due to the waves I surf regularly. as a fish it works amazingly well and would suit a beginnner hoping to discover more pumping ability and turns.

The Fling is a hell of a fish. The tail exit assists in creating fast turns for the thickness in the middle of the board. I found that for my weight the 5'8 even worked well under my feet but I could even go for a 6 or higher
