I have ridden this board to death! It takes the traditional fish and turns it up to 11! Paddles well, turns great, and will hold in surf up to about 4ft. It’s no the best in steep critical conditions bit what fish is?!?! If you want a twin keel surfboard but don’t want a bulky old style board this is the perfect fit.

Its a fun board in small surf but only if you size it right. I got the 5’10 and figured since I ride a 6’0 30L shortboard this would be heaps of foam, sadly not. It surprisingly does not paddle as well as you would expect from this style of board. Would be best ridden as long, or a bit longer than your shortboard. Once up and riding though its a ton of fun in 1-2ft surf. I rode it mostly as a single + side bites or straight single and it was flowy and easy to surf. It gets a bit hairy at 3ft+ but its not really intended for that anyway.

Great Board but takes a bit of getting used to. I didn’t mesh with this board for a while, it doesn’t really surf like a shortboard, but is more agile than a step up and paddles almost like a fish. If you want to love this board you will eventually, but if you want a board that will feel familiar off the rack then this may not be for you. It handles late drops comfortably and never skips out during turns. If I ordered again I would probably go an inch longer but same length and width for a fraction more foam to offset the heavier glass job and help with paddling.

Great board for anything from 2 - 6ft days. Grovels well on small days, really zippy & maneuverable. Can hold rail on bigger days too. Easy to paddle, and very stable. Fun little board all round. Riding as a quad. Definitely recommended.

This is my go to, everyday board for the east coast. Surfs really well as a quad or thruster and it loves a good punchy beach break in the 2-4ft range. 3ft is it’s sweet spot. Will be keeping this one in my quiver for a while yet!

Super smooth and drivey through turns and down the line. It really is a performance twin, I find it goes best on open faced waves from 2-6ft, and especially in clean conditions.

Love my Sweet Spot - its snappiness when doing a re-entry and its hold when doing open faced carves are excellent.. I've got a few boards and this is my favourite when waves are pumping.

Very happy with the RTT. I always travel with it. It has a versatile range, flat enough rocker to get speed in small gutless waves and enough hold to surf powerful hollow waves. There is a pivot/release point where the channel exits the rail at the tail. You can really engage this spot for some snappier turns. Upright or keel fins, works with both, mix it up for a change of feeling.I normally leave in futures K2s. If it were to break, I’d replace it, same shape, same dimensions.

Great one board quiver. I would probably not use it in 1-2 surf, it needs more to get going, and it also reaches its limits (or I do) when it's getting overhead. For big days I'd get something narrower.
