JS Industries Surfboard Reviews

The Black Baron twin is so fun! I rarely take out the thruster anymore, it’s my go to board in any condition. I’m running the JS FCS II Power Twin fin setup. Handles over head waves with ease. Easy paddler, and has lots of drive. Order your board a few inches shorter than your normal shortboard. You won’t be disappointed. The best thing about it is you’ll have more fun and you can still do your progressive moves or just lay back and throw some style into it. You may even be leaving your thruster in the closet too.

Great board for medium conditions, a nice turn on the edges and quite easy to get speed. Good responsiveness and not to heavy on the lip. Overall a nice board to cruise and to have a good session on mesium small size waves not too powerful.

This board is crazy fun, especially when the waves are sub par. Personally, I am a fan of the Black Baron in punchyish smaller beach break (Ocean Beach, SF when small). Even when it is sloppy and onshore this is my go-to. If you are considering this versus the new Red Baron, I would 100% go with this board. The paddle power is good enough to get into smaller waves and the speed generation off the epoxy and V in the tail is crazy fast. I would recommend some upright performance twin fins, as it lets the board get speed and keeps it a little tighter. The stab Black Baron joyride review gives a really great overview that I 100% agree with. Overall, ride the board from 1-5 foot surf, especially during the summer/spring. Exceptional pop, release, and maneuverability - I cannot recommend the Black Baron enough.

Super fun board! amazing in smaller waves on point breaks and surprisingly well in solid days out on the points, id totally recommend. 5 star board and service
