yea the darkarts look nice but I only have one pyzel that I rarely ride as a step up and the stock dims are nowhere close to what i need so it makes me very hesitant. I'm the same size as Matt and have ridden a lot of losts and they have always gone well for me so that gives me a lot more confidence to pony up the extra $ for either the varial or black dart techI think the choice comes down to brand preference since Drew and Justin work with different labels.
We need all three compared: Black Dart, Varial and Dark Arts.
DO NOT STEAM YOUR KALE. THAT IS WACK. TASTES LIKE KITTEN P1SS THAT WAY.Raw or steamed?
THIS. PIN THIS. NO MORE QUESTIONS TO BE HAD. THE D HAS SPOKEN.Lol!!! Give me a couple/few more weeks, got a 3 pack of Chillis from Drew coming soon to add to the Mid Strength I already have. The Black Darts feel more like a traditional poly/PU. I feel they paddle a little better, they have more of the forward glide/momentum that a poly board has, but that could just be in my head. I’d go BD for good wave thrusters, step ups or midlengths. Dark Arts have more pop that pretty much never goes away. They feel lighter and the bottoms are stronger, no finger dents from white knuckled duckdives. If you’re an air guy I’d go DA due to the weight. And I think DA is the call for stubby grovel boards and fish type stuff, especially if your usual spot is a beach break.
With Futures?Hey @griffinsurfboard, is it possible to get your models glassed by Drew in Black Dart, cork, etc?
Just get an Inferno72 and you'll probably snap the nose off like everyone else, hehe.You're a smaller dude get a sharpeye and ask zouvi to chop da nose!
Solid black glass for the fins. Can see the way they’re foiled there‘s no carbon. I prefer all glass, look forward to trying emDA middy. Also new Futures fins. Are the fins fiberglass or carbon? I cant tell.
Middy looks alright altho stock dims are mad chonky.Link
