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

This is such a great everyday board that can grovel and excels all the way up to head high + waves. Fast paddling and fast turning. Always a fun board on most days.

This is one of the best shortboards i've surfed. It's in between a high performance and an all rounder. I would highly recommend this board as a good wave board. If you have a small wave option and are looking for a good wave board in anything from 3-6ft this is a great option. Also the manufacturing quality is amazing, it's 3 years old and looks brand new.

when I started surfing I was only borrowing potato chip performance board from my brother and I thought that’s what I had to learn on. Someone recommended that I get this board saying it would help me catch more waves. Since I bought one I have progressed leaps and bounds, and I am having so much more fun. It feels like it has the stability of a long board but at the same time snappy and fast. It looks intimidating and that it might be only for super good surfers but this will 100% help a beginner start catching a lot more waves. The only downside is it is somewhat tiring to paddle, since a lot of the foam is towards the front.
