My first board was a 6ft chilli Cherry Peppa. Heaps of volume, really hard board to stop using because of the paddle power.. eventually I finally moved onto the holy grail and it changed the way a surfed. Always loved pumping down the line because the chilli was so fast but stepping up to a more performance board really made a difference in how I progressed. I was able to drop in later, get into more hollow sections and begin properly surfing more up and down instead of straight. Would highly recommend!

This board rips. Got this board as I wanted something with a more volume to surf a little more on the wave and it hasn't disappointed. The board travels and turns so well on the wave, from 1-5 foot and even in pumping Burleigh, held its form and was awesome to surf on. Highly recommend this board, it's a must add to the quiver or if you want the board for all conditions.

Second pyzel I’ve surfed, gains speed super Quick and cuts through the water nicely, very manoeuvrable board that could be used by any intermediate and above surfer, caught some absolutely killer waves with this board and only surfed it 4 times!!

Great mix of high performance board and twinny. Has the speed and paddle power of a twinny but can still lay into your turns without feeling like It’s gonna spin out. Love it

I first rode the blakbox2 in hyfi and loved it, but thought it was a smidge wide. But when the waves are small or even big and fat, the blakbox is my go to. But when the waves turn on, the monsta box has that little bit more performance without losing all of the great qualities I found in the blakbox hyfi. This board In hyfi is so light and the paddle power is amazing, especially for an old dude with manoeuvres still left in him:) Love this board.

I have been riding these boards for years, I different boards and always go back to the Hypto. They paddle like a dream so you pick up heaps of waves. I ride it in beachies, points, Indo and Sumatra and have taken step up boards and never used them. The Hypto performs all sizes and is the perfect 1 board quiver. Make sure you don't buy to big or you wont like it, use the Hayden Shapes chart and buy the board for your weight, plant your back foot as far as you can go and it will light up.

Very fast and more high performance than an allrounder. Loved this board when the waves got good but unfortunately it snapped after only a few surfs. Not so good in smaller mushy waves however i probably would have bought another if not for getting a Baby Buggy that i loved even more.
