Hey Magnet, the hellfire is a great choice. It's fast but can handle pocket surfing well. Great option for an intermediate surfer pushing advanced.
The alternator is also there, but I think if you are a practiced longboarder stepping down, the Hellfire is the one.
Cheers!

I have the Hellfire
The Bourez is on the way
Do I need the Razor
I know I want it but can it be justified
5'8 Dominator
6'1 Flexfire (Round Tail)
i'll be adding it shortly..probably dont NEED it..but i want an extension of the HF feel.....
with a 510 HF and a traditional shorty, we would fill them out with a spud or variant and one or two guns...but the razor gives you another way to ride most waves...hard to resist..

the Michel is more of a shortboard feel than the Hellfire. More sensitive.

Hey Chris, I am about to pull the trigger on a CBD Michel Bourez. But wanted to check if the rocker is the same as the Taj was or more like the Flexfire. The Taj rocker was a bit too much for my liking.
taj mate...but was it the rocker you didnt gel with, or the overall twitchiness..??..the MB is thicker foiled and fuller in outline...not sure what tweaks you have made too...

I'm pretty sure it was the rocker on the Taj. It just felt a bit too sensitive. I'm used to drawing out a carve, it just felt like the board was doing all the work if you know what I mean. I guess I'm used to flatter rockered boardsOriginally Posted by core personal training
i know exactly what you mean...i was over-cooking it at first too...and i like rockers...!!..upping to 6'4 lengthened it out a bit...but a lot of that sensitivity comes from the foil too...it's wafer thin at the ends.. i actually like that...the MB on the other hand is not a "sensitive" board...volume thru the tail and the fuller outline (width up front) which has more rail in the water take care of that...the rocker will still go beyond vertical and come back around under you again, but you need more weight/strength to do it...
