The Taj Burrow Beach Buggy lives up to the hype. I really like the lower front and extended tail rocker which means the board is fast under front foot and will go anywhere you want it to in a variety of waves. This board has a lively and responsive feel and I am impressed with the quality of the build. By far the best of the three boards I have bought this year. Surfed it at the local reef breaks and Indo as well. Highly recommended.

A fun board for sure. Definitely a great groveler for the weak waves here in Texas.

This board was my first "shortboard" and I absolutely love it, unfortunately, it took 18 weeks to arrive and I was repeatedly handed different information by js staff members (nothing to do with board cave) all the boardcave staff were very helpful. in the end, I got the board which arrived with a free tail pad, some FCS fins some stickers a shirt and a cap from js as they had taken so long I rate this board 9.5/10

I am stoked, fun board to ride in all surf. Just got back from Indo and rode this board just as much as my performance boards. Is fast and easy to paddle on to waves, awesome feeling sliding the tail. Like on a skateboard. Great fun board to have in your quiver. Go the Twinny.

Turning is super responsive, generates excellent speed on larger waves but doesn't work great in conditions under 4ft. I ordered this board with less literage than I normally surf so it doesn't paddle as well as I'm used to but overall I love it.

The board felt good when paddling and stable under foot when getting to your feet, on the wave it moved easily and went where you wanted it to go. A great step up board to really get the most out of the wave for the average surfer.
