If i'm 6'1 190lbs and a pretty good surfer should i go for the dominator or the potatonator? I'm probably surfing some smaller mushier waves but i'm afraid the potatonator won't be responsive enough for me. Which board would you suggest?

Spitfire!!!!it's a dominator with a more refined tail!. Still performs nicely on smaller conditions.How small are you planning on surfing?
5'10"
yeah actually i was looking for something around 5'10, will the spitfire be fast though?
As fast as the dom, maybe a tide bit more, and more maneuverable than the dominator
The spitfire definitely turns quicker and tighter and so helps get down the line faster at times when you need to make really quick turns here and there to stay with the pocket. For weaker fuller waves not much difference it's when it starts to suck that quicker turn might be the difference between keeping up or not.Quote:

i tried the dom and the spit. Spitfire all day BUT if you are riding mush all day, dom would be better. Spit shines in chest high to overhead IMO. I ride my Sweet for knee to chest high. Overhead + will be for my future board (hellfire or hell razor).
ALOHA!!
