There is a thread on the chitty kitty

Yes, I saw and posted in that. But none actually had ridden one. So I figured this might be a more convenient place to focus on ride reports.

Didn’t @Sam_K post a ride report somewhere for this board?

I think his is a midlife crisis twin

Haha yeah... Felt up a wildcat in the store and it seemed nice. Never rode it. Can confirm that the midlife crisis is awfully nice though as a twinny

Jon said they were planning on releasing an official "Twin Crisis" model like the one Boardshop UK has but haven't seen it yet. One of those with channels like the Wildcat would be pretty nice. Not a fan of wings but I do like channels.

Jon posting about the wildcat and fins. Fins look similar to Britt Twins for the twin pin. Though hard to see from the post from that angle.

These look good! They look similar to Burchs' twin template but with a fuller tip.

Wild Cat looks like a good time.

Put the Burch twins in my plasmic today and was flying. Don't think i'll ride the NVS Album's again.

Who makes the Burch twins?

I'm not sure who foils them.

Burch only gives them away with the purchase of a new board.

Fins made for the board

Wildcat is very flat up front- much more than expected given its outline. I think it would work well in quality/lined up waves but probably not for my wedgy beachbreak. Shop also had a few happy twins (older model?) that looked really fun. Kind of a similar feel to my phantom but widepoint might be a bit further back.

Thanks for the reply. That was part of what I was curious about. None of the local shops here who sell Pyzels have gotten any so I was curious about how suitable for beach break they are.

looks like it works in average conditions

i have ridden many wildcats back in the day when I was single but not a pyzel...

those sort of waves are similar to what i regularly ride locally (mainly beachies). like most twins it has a bit of extra spark/acceleration between turns. but there are so many twins out there that have this feature. i am not sure the wildcat is offering something new/better (than my current stcy bullet twin). having said that, the few pyzels i have owned have had a solidity and reliability that inspires confidence. this is not lost on me when looking at potential twin additions.
btw, good to see someone other than a male pro used for this vid.
