It’s kinda crazy the Bobby is their worst selling board (according to a CI). It’s one of my favorites to ride when it’s under head high. I also rarely see used ones for sale. I’m already seeing G Skates for sale around SoCal.
I think its the marketing. I feel like the same thing happened with the Revo. Not a lot of "reviews" or "online marketing". It appears that the age group is 30-50 and since most of that age group have 9-5pm jobs, they get their information online or through social media and if a board isn't marketing heavily in those areas, it doesn't perform well. Unless of course, Kelly rides it.It’s kinda crazy the Bobby is their worst selling board (according to a CI). It’s one of my favorites to ride when it’s under head high.

This is just my personal anecdotal opinion about board sales.
THanks Scott!Just like any "journalist" they spin for interest.
To clarify, the BQ sells very well in USA. Top 3.
We limited the sales data provided to top 6 boards in each region, meaning Bobby Quad didn't make top in all regions, but still came ahead of many other models, so not "worst selling"
Not hard to land out of top 6 with all the other great choices...
Appears you got an internal memoTheir marketing is close but no potato.
Happy ending > Happy everyday
G Spot > G skate
Booby Quad > Bobby quad
Fish taco > Fish beard
Black booty > Black beauty
$20 hooker > CI pro
Sex sells. Food too hence the Fish taco model.
Lakey ripping and talking about her CI's
What's Imai riding at the North Narrabeen contest? Yesterday looked like a blown/chunky day at El Porto. I was pretty surprised they ran eight of the men's heats in the rapidly deteriorating conditions.Just spoke with Australia guys today, interestingly OG Flyer has been on a hot run over there, the best seller over the last couple months.
Then last weekend Imai gets 2nd at the Snapper contest on his Spinetek build OGF.
Something just jives with that board at those waves.
