I loved the rare bird and wanted an all rounder that felt similar, the oh one is a good wave board that works best in steeper faced waves, it has a bit more volume that sits slightly forward and heaps of drive, I took this board to Samoa and it was great in the reef breaks and barrels at any size, the waves there are hollow, and the walled sections are steep so even in bigger days you don’t want a big board. The rails are slightly fuller and the nose is less knify than my other good wave boards, the round tail is great for hitting steep sections and has a very solid feeling.

Bought it for a stepup board when it's big. Board feels so safe on the take off when it's sucky and drives off the bottom beautifully. Holds its rail through turns you can depend on, very stoked with this board.

Great board for crumbly summer waves. Easy to catch waves in trash conditions. Great board for crumbly days making pretty fun.

Solid all round board nice and stable. But not great fairly stiff and not very lively I wouldn’t get another one. It hasn’t let me down but never feels great. The best it goes for me is in the tube.

I absolutely love this board. It’s perfect for the smaller summer stuff with a little less power. It’s super fast and manoeuvrable with a loose and skatey feel. It’s exactly what I was looking for in a fun board. Just keep in mind that it is a board made for smaller waves so once it gets a bit bigger or more bowly it tends to lose its rail a bit.

Really fast down the line board which loves going on rail and vertical the only thing I find is it doesn’t like releasing the tail which I personally don’t like but for guys who push really hard vertically they would enjoy the hold it has when pushing hard in decent waves.
