I have a 6´2 The End and a 6´6 Townsend.Anyone ridden or felt up any The End models? Only really seen footage of Jack riding smaller versions. There are some midlength versions in the used section that look interesting. Curious how they would compare to something like the Townsend.

Only 4 sessions on the 6´2, but I would say that my initial insights would be:
- Low rocker compared to the Townsend.
- They paddle very similarly (perhaps a little better, The End).
- I like both boards with bigger waves. I don´t think any of them are very good grovelers, but if I had to take one of them in smaller waves, it would be The End.
- Perhaps the Townsend can be turned easier because it is a twin and an asym.
- The End is faster (way faster) and likes a point break more than a beach break.
I still need more sessions, but I would say that it´s a very fun board with wave range, and it overlaps a little bit in wave range with the Townsend, although they ride differently.
I hope this helps!
