Sweet Potato in Crossfire for me and my CBD Taj, unless that counts as 2011.
Sweet Potato in Crossfire for me and my CBD Taj, unless that counts as 2011.
I need a new 'traditional' shortboard to complement my hybrid (Spitfire) and grovel (Sweet Potato) boards.
5'11" HellRazor or 5'8" HellFire or 5'10" MB
Really having a tough time choosing, hopefully some Nev videos come out soon regarding the new boards.
5'9"/176cm - 75kgs/165lbs - Intermediate - 5'8" Hellfire: SA3 thruster - 5'3" Baked Potato: Elevons quad - 5'4" Potatonator ???
Its a toss up```` possibly , 6-6 Michel Bourez, 6-5 Activator or the 6-9 Hell Raiser, . I want to see them at a surf shop in Oahu hopefully...

I'm gonna have to get on an El F one of these days!
6'0" - 77kg - 170lbs
502R FPT - DL front DS rears
506D RVG - Soar Powerbase DL
600Q FTJ/CBD - Soar Powerbase DL
604R FFE - Soar Powerbase DL
In my opinion the El F ticks more boxs than any of the other boards in the firewire range , I never have a bad surf with this board and have used it in a wider range of conditions than the others as it never lets me down.
Agreed Rusty, I think it qualifies as a magic stick.
Perhaps the Potatonator will be an equal board.
- aurf
5.10 Futura - What else do I need?
5.5 Baked Potato - Well ok, I need this.
5.11 El Fuego - Oh ok, just one more.
6'1"@whopping 150LBS
Mediocre surfer, ie; typical.
* XM Clear Grip as a wax alternative.
Well got a Dom and a Hellfire, so I figure the Michel Bourez should be the next board for me!!!
stoked rusty and Aurf.
hanalei did you see the new dims added to the Michel line?
