When buying some booties this winter I looked at a wingless squash Hayden board

It was really nice , super rational shape with a very nice looking glass job .
Have no idea what model it was .

I think Noel would enjoy working with a long time shaper analyzing what makes what occur on a surfboard .

What Noel projects as the reason for what he feels needs help -Very excited reviewer - glad he's found his niche

I occasionally watch Noel as entertainment....as a reviewer he has a major integrity problem in that he is never negative. His opinions would hold a lot more weight with me if he shat on a board or two but never happens. I mentioned it to him on ig and he pointed me to a review where was less enthusiastic, but that was it. I want shroff with a chainsaw on dog ci models - not a neverending cheerleader. That said he sure surfs pretty.

I don’t know if it’s true but someone on the forum once said that Salas doesn’t publish reviews on boards that he tries but doesn’t like. Makes sense, why would anyone bother to review a crap board.

Note that he’s never reviewed a Griffin. :p

I tried a 5'8 Hypto about 10 years ago. Thought it was okay. Turned kinda of flat but had a lot of easy speed.
Maybe I should have tried a 5'6?
salsa is 5'7-5'8 max, too short for you 5'8 or 5'9 sounds about right
