    do u have a recomendation out of those boards which is most versatile? people seem to like the spitfire in almost all conditions--do u have a preference in rapid fire vs the other?
    What shop?

    I think from what has been said if your a good surfer the unibrow is the most versatile, Chris says it goes in 2ft if it has a bit of power all the way up to a couple feet overhead depending on the wave. Think its for slightly better waves than spit but can grovel still but I'm assuming not quite as well as the spit, i guess if performance is ur priority go unibrow and if u want slightly better grovelability then go spit, in sure u will love either though good luck
