It's like you're making money with the 25% off! I was already talking to Stamps about getting a carbon Varial build and this was just the sort of star aligning I needed to put the order in.

Comparison between DA and Varial carbon layup? Can you tell the difference?Resin tint on my carbon Aipa Wrecking Balls. I included the DA version for comparison and I’ll say it…for flex, lol
PS…in this model and construction, the Varial rides better

I haven't had entire platoons of each build like Dyl but I've had 4 DA and 2 VC so enough to compare. VC is a little heavier, more damp feeling and dents easier. DA are I think prettier, like more perfectly glassed. I don't know which is more durable but I would guess Varial since the core foam is stronger than EPS. I haven't had many dings with either build. No cracks around fins boxes on the twin fins I've had in either build.Comparison between DA and Varial carbon layup? Can you tell the difference?
If it's a 5'8 Contemporary Fish, I'll take it!!Speaking of Aipa, I just got an email from Akila saying my order is ready. When did I place an order
+1 on the cheater. works in smaller waves than I could have imagined.RNF96 + Disco Cheater would be a pretty good combo from barely surfable to your step up. Both has surprising low end and high end.
Turns out it was just a glitch in their system that spammed past customers. I got all excited for a minute and really started to believe maybe I did.If it's a 5'8 Contemporary Fish, I'll take it!!
Aruka pretty much covered it and I also feel the same way about them. The Varial definitely has more flex, weight and dampening. In general I would go poly(1st choice) or Varial over EPS, especially the longer the board isComparison between DA and Varial carbon layup? Can you tell the difference?
