The sure thing combines the movability and speed of a performance board while giving the wave catching ability of a fun board. Holds up in surf from 2-6ft. Only downside is the quality of the stock PU glassing.

Very good board I bought it for a indo trip and it’s great for sharp reefs because it doesn’t ding is heaps fast and an overall great board but big for me though

Super fun reliable board, helped me to improve my surfing a lot. Very easy to turn and is excellent in anything from 3-8 ft. Only critique is it can sometimes feel slow in smaller conditions. However still one of the best boards I’ve ever ridden.

Hands down the best board I have owned and really helps smooth out your style and add fluidity between turns. You can do the tightest turns with good flow linking a series of good turns together on a wave from start to finish.

Ride with JJF techflex futures in medium. In smaller surf feels smooth and controlled but no spark to it. As soon as it is overhead with a little more push the board comes to life and really takes on its own personality. I am a massive fan, I ride the gremlin and phantom as well and between the three I am a very pleased customer. This board itself is great once it starts getting a little bigger and heavier.

Awesome board, glad I didn't go any smaller as the volume would have been a little lacking for the smaller or weaker waves but in these dimensions is great. Riding with futures blacksticks large fins, board is mint. Great control and response on the wave and rides with a bit of spark. Certainly a perfect fit between the gremlin and the ghost.

Excellent board for paddling power and manoeuvres. Ideal board from beginner through to advanced. Good for knee high waves and above. If you only have one board to travel this is the go to board which suits most conditions. Get one now and have fun!!

Brought this model 5 yrs ago then changed to a monster box with similar volume. Got back on the Monster DHD due to repair of my other board. Wish i never got off this board as ive now put the monster box away and cant stop riding my old beat up DHD Monster. Ive found the rails are way more forgiving and has a faster release! I dont know much about board design but i know that this board Farkin goes that good i will hopefully get a new one soon!

Great board for bigger hollow waves, holds rail nicely Easy to paddle into bigger waves early and also has enough foam under the front foot to get through the flat spots. Down sides only come on smaller mushy waves Doesn't generate heaps of speed and isn't too loose when turning Which is to be expected, better off having this as a good wave/step up short board rather than an alrounder
