I'm 100kgs and ride a 5 9 BP. For me that's the perfect board... Depends on what experience you have and your fitness level.

Well I will be selling the PN very soon as this is all round fun for me. I find the full nose perfect as the PN used to pearl to much. I can't say much more but dang this board is all time!
Now for those thinking about purchasing a Sweet Potato, save your money and head straight for the Baked. I kid you not having ridden SP and a PN, the BP is hands down the perfect stick for me. I...
Been surfing a 5 9 BP and its waaaaaaay better than my Sweet P. I would sell both my Potatonator and SP cause its got so much more control and just as much speed.
Funny cause I have always found quads or twinnies frustrating on my back hand, hence why I prefer thrusters. I must say the speed from quads is great,especially on weak full waves but as soon as it...
im 100kgs, ride a 6 2 PN so would be interested in how that All In fin set up would go? Drag? Tracking? I have just taken a spare rear trailer, and modifying it to the knubster deimensions. I would...
OMFG Medina got the sickest unmakeable hut, and netted a 10!!! This was sick!!! Possibly barrell of the year so far haha
Bourez is gone, Freddy P surfed really great, and Michels wave selection wasnt on point. Hopefully he can surf Chopes better :)
Froth!!! :)
How did you find the weight and flex characteristics between the fst and rf?
Awesome! Thanks so much for that. :)
Does anyone know the actual weights between 5 8 Sweet Potato FST & RF? I know it's trivial But I'm fussy in that respect. I'm assuming the RF would be lighter?
Cheers JB
Hi guys,
A few weeks ago I wasnt a fan of the PN, and was actually critical of this board. But since breaking my SP (pulled a fin box out at a very popular point here on the east coast of...
I would say the MS paddled easier but the Sweet P was a lot more fun and added a little more performance. Tyler Warren is sick, he surfs great and probably one of the sweetest guys to watch. Remember...
Yeah it would be more mini Simmons like. Its all about having fun :)
So why did you chop the tail on the SF? Since doing this, do you find it easier or harder to: bottom turn, release off the top,...
Yeah like all board dynamics but I'm interested in what a little hack can do. Like I said the board has been snapped and bashed to hell.
I've actually had a snapped longboard and rode the back...
I guess it would shorten the rail line a bit just wanted to take some volume out of the tail.
So has it improved the performance of the SF?
Hi all
Probably gonna get flammed for this but seeing my Sweet P has been, snapped, chopped and dinged galore over the last 14 months of use, I was interested in hacking about 2 inches off or even...
Just seen the Activators in my local... Very nice indeed :)
i hear ya CC, Im frothing for a Baked Potato with butter and sour cream haha. No I cant wait to get one but if i ride a 5 8 SP, what do I get in a BP?
TB needs to get back on a FW! :)
Look at Kelly, he had like 30 sec left, and he did what he had to do!!! Nailed it actually. I dont like the way Taj is riding at the moment. In my eyes, Adriano was underscored in that final (QS...
Taj had a meltdown, he surfed poorly but congrats to our local boy Otto!!! :)
Have to agree, after a snapped board and the count down on, he pulled out a sick AR in the bowl... OMFG!
John John just cleaned up Wilko! Slater vs Muscroft... hmmmm. Im really liking Freddy P, his back hand is on fire, and reminds me a little of Bobby. Very different from Ace's backhand, which flows a...
