Love it. Goes good as a trusta too!YakAK said:FresnoRipper, How do you like your AO Twin?
Wow!! Beauty...Straighty said:Resurrection of this thread to show my new toy - 6'2" Russ Short model.
Those bottoms curves.....
Ridden a few times, all under head high, mix of point breaks and beach breaks. Still getting the fin placement right, but plenty fast! Loves driving through a cutback, but feels stiff off the top, and I think that the outline is the reason for this. Would love to try a more modern shape in the bonzer set up.....(one day maybe!) Will definitely be getting pulled out for some decent swell though.
Hey Fresno - what size is that pod? How does it compare to your other bonzers? Thanks!FresnoRipper said:

Cool - thanks for that. Very keen to hear a comparison between the pod and egg. I'm debating which one to get next for a new bonzer fix.FresnoRipper said:Hey B-Man,Bman76 said:Hey Fresno - what size is that pod? How does it compare to your other bonzers? Thanks!FresnoRipper said:

I'm only able to offer a limited rundown. The Pod is 5'10" and was probably my favorite of the bunch for slower, fattish waves. It didn't go rail to rail quite nearly as fast as the Octafish or my AO Twin, but was so smooth and buttery on a slopey burger. Just something about that rocker profile and round tail that made it so much fun to ride.
The Octafish is better suited to the beach breaks I'm usually riding.
I've since sold the Pod to pay for my 7'2" Gibbons widow maker and a deposit on an Egg from Malcolm, 6'6".
