Potatonator or Spitfire or SP for summer surf!

[hwork50]

So I am either going to buy a 5'10 Potatonator or 6'0" Spitfire. Will be camping up and down the Pacific Coast this summer and wanted a board
that will catch small waves and just have some fun on.

The Potatonator will be NEW and the Spitfire will be USED! About 2-300 in price difference.

What do you guys think?

You could even throw a SP in the mix as I will have a longboard but need something for smallish waves that is fun not so longboard SLOW.

Would love to get all three, but that wont happen.

PN would be the happy medium all rounder.

Just read your sig, as you already have a Dom I'd prob go Sweet P.

Exactely

[prjwebb]

Or part ex the Dom for a PN :D

[hwork50]

Ok, I don't know if I could sell the DOM. That would be tough, but will definitely go touch and hold a Potatonator. You guys think a 5'10' would do it?

[iggy]

I'm ordering myself a 5'6"

[prjwebb]

Yeah 5'10 PN or 5'6" SP I reckon based on what you're riding now, but you could potentially drop a size on each.

Iggy keep in mind the potato nator is 70% dominator. I am not sure I would want a 506 on the east coast....i think i would likely ride a 508.

[iggy]

Despite the volume???Does it still has lots of foam under the front foot like the potato?.

[iggy]

I believe this board will be a killer in the river

[Chris]

yeah it does, but not as much. doesn't feel nearly as wide!!

[iggy]

All riiiiight!!!

[hwork50]

I want to go see a potatonator in person. Gotta see what it feels like .

[Fritzkat]

Baked potato...You have a Dom and Hell fire already, just work on your fin/skeg quiver after that. That should cover it all. Of course if it completely flat, grab a carver skateboard and street surf..

[hwork50]

I know I am totally intrigued by the baked Potato as well. I need to get my accident settlement so I can pre-order one for summer. I am thinking 5'7 with Futures RF construction. I still want to go and see a potatonator just to see it and hold it.

[Chance'um]

Had the FW poster with all the new models bit gave it to a grom. Is there something similar online? thanks!

[hwork50]

Yeah, I just got that poster it is pretty sick!

[Fritzkat]

The poster has some new Tech on it. I think ECO tech.?? anyways. I really want to start groping my next boards in the shops...Posters, are like Playboy mags, just a tease.

[hwork50]

Bought a 5'6 Sweet Potato tonight pretty much brand new! RF with FCS. Tough to find used ones so my summer dilemma is totally solved.

[iggy]

Now get it wet and let us know

[hwork50]

Stormy, windy and wet here so I am trying to figure out my best fin possibilities with the fins I have. Good times!
