One board quiver

[Wandi]

In this age of extensive quivers, High performance boards, hybrids, fishes etc
If you could ride only one board for the next year what would it be?
Hard one isn't it
I think I would choose my 5'10 Hell

[iggy]

Agreed on my part

My 508 Sub has been a good 1 board quiver for the last 5 months or something. Not ideal in all conditions but it's been working.
I think if I was going to pick one it'd either be the 600 x 18.75" x 2.38" Michel Bouzez or the 511 Hell Razor. I'd like to add 1/16 thickness to the HellRazor though if it was going to be my only board.

Keep in mind that I surf trestles 90% of the time and I stay away from lowers. I surf lowers probably 3 or 4 times a year. Middles, Uppers and Church can all get as good or better than lowers in the right conditions.

For me it has been my 5'8" Dominator. I only use my quadraflex when it is really good and I only use my fish when it is really really bad. If I had a hellfire or razor maybe it would be one of those.

I second that on the Dominator, although I think if I had to pick it would be a 6'0" Spitfire. I don't own one but my Dom. has been so good to me that Spitfire can only make things better.

Yeah the hellfire is good but I want to try the spitfire I think it will cover more just going by chito's reviews. Maybe a custom spit with a slightly narrower nose and I reckon it will cover from ankle snappers to nearly double overhead.

The Spitfire's weakness for me is the low entry rocker and a bit too much volume in the tail. I don't have the leg strength to boss that thing around and my lazy paddling means I'm usually taking off pretty late. I couldn't imagine riding it in nearly double overhead conditions. I think the Hellrazor and Hellfire would combat these weakness for me and because I'm a little lighter on my feet I think it'd work in the Spitfire conditions also.
I guess for a slightly bigger guy the opposite could be said, in conditions where I'm over-foamed on a Spitfire, they have the power and weight to muscle the board and keep control in more critical sections, but in smaller days where the Hellfire would still work for me, they need the extra foam from the Spitfire.

That pretty much sums it up for me, though I don't have a spit. I've had my dom out in solid surf a couple of times before I received the hellfire and it was ok so I expect the spit with its tail will have even more more bite and won't need to be nursed quite as much. In fact I have plans of using a spit to replace my one board quiver that I have at my in-laws up in the tropics.

I am all legs, so it would work for me. I have a 6'2" hellfire and I still prefer my DOM for the mushy stuff around here. Have not had a good enough day to take it out. Cannot wait!
