    *** Official Snow Surfing Thread ***

    I am predominately a skier, but from my experience in the BC splitboard is the clear winner. My friends with splitboards seem to ride them just fine on them compared to their inbound setups, and since you will be spending significantly more time climbing than riding the weight savings is a...

    YOLO ALERTS

    True YOLO for me in local "off the rack" and not a custom order. I rode a friends NPJ last week and was totally taken back by the tremendous drive. The fin setup never made any sense to me which proves, yet again, how little I understand about design. A little on the heavier side with gloss...

    Album Surfboards

    Great - Thank you for the suggestions! I grabbed a set of the NVS Bom Dia quads, guess they may also work in the Disorder combined with the upright twins.

    Album Surfboards

    DA Twinsman RP hasn't worked well for me but I will have another go at some point with different fins. Twinbender has been very good in a variety of conditions great speed and loose. Going to give plasmic, disorder, and bom dia a go next. Any fin recommendations for the bom dia? I have...

    Sad Pads

    I had some magic shapes from Ezera and Scott was always a pleasure to work with. I still have a few tucked away but imagine they are not nearly as user friendly as today's boards.

    Pyzel Pyzalien

    Glad I am not the only one - Had my PZ2 out at a reef pass with some push and had a bit of a shocker session. AM2s didn't work for me, very fast but out of control, which made me rethink what I thought I knew about fins. Board had previously gone well with P8 vapor cores but in slow slopey...

    Album Surfboards

    I had nearly given up on Album as I had a few duds but gave it one more go with a varial twin bender. Went a little larger, and now I have dropped some weight, so it may be a bit oversized but it is my go to board as of late. Loving with Album/NVS Upright fins (my new favorite twins as also...

    Pyzel Pyzalien

    I am still very much dialing in but I seem to prefer more upright fins vs. rake. Loved it with pivot vapor cores, went well with both med & large Pyzel set. Two days ago at a down the line 4-6ft reef with some real push I used AM2 and seemed too out of control. Definitely could be user issue...

    Lost Retro Tripper

    it’s been awhile since I’ve ridden a rnf but I would say the retro tripper has less low end. I packed a few twin fins, due to the forecast, for recent Southpac trip and retro tripper goes well fitting the curve of pitching reefbreak better than the Twinbender which also goes well just different...

    Lightbender or RNF 96

    While I haven’t ridden a RNF in a long time I’ve been really liking my Twinbender. First Album I’ve clicked with, it packs some foam but still has that twin spark with that first pump off the fins. I think it may be more comparable to the RNF as more contemporary than the light bender which I...

    Really good wave boards

    Owl Chapman(Kalani's uncle?), Steve Morgan, Jim Yarborough, someone at Hawaii Surf Factory, and I am sure others.

    Really good wave boards

    I haven't ridden Steve's 5 fin design but really like his boards. Very clean shapes including guns, very underrated shaped IMHO.
