Got the 6’6, 39L meant to be a step up board. Only used it in wave garden settings with 6’feet hollow and very clean waves. Great paddling, glide and speed and good manoeuvrabiliy for this size. Could very easily be a great one board quiver. Can’t wait to try it on a point break. Great manufacture and excellent service from Boardcave, thank you guys!

It took me a couple of sessions to figure this board out, and my experience with twins in the past has been so so, but this board has made me a believer! She paddles really well, and once you're locked in it's off to the races. I surfed it in 6-8 foot barreling beachbreak and it handles the tube well, and also allows you to get vertical on your turns (more so than other twins). I love the way it looks without a track pad, but make sure you wax it all the way down the fish tail. Sometimes you'll actually pivot off of those tail corners. The praise for Gary McNeil seems to be on the money here, and this board has me wanting to try other more high performance shapes, like the Entity.

Helps me catch waves even when conditions are subpar. This board is an everyday board you will catch all your daily waves on this. Perfect board if you are more bulky ir swole than the typical surfer due to the design if the board.

Super fun from the get go. Fast, loose, and goes on rail great. Best Performance twin I’ve ever ridden, Prefers clean conditions, doesn’t handle chatter well. Order volume over what you like bc they measure it before the take out the channel, at least that’s what they told me on my custom and from speaking with others with this board most say they wish it was slightly thicker for paddling. That’s the only gripe
