kinda similar flow to Devon Howard in the CI mid vids. maybe besides the floaters. Cant say it makes me want to rush out and get one.

For sur D Howard, just me, but those waves look descent but board little chunky, maybe overfilnned?

He looks really good on it. Basically he looks like he does on his other mids. He's like the Noel Salas of mid lengths, surfs every board the same but the same is good.

Would be tempted by one of these as a mid length step up for heavier beach breaks where a wider nosed, flatter mid starts getting sketchy.

I have a similar shaped Arakawa that works well. It might have a a little less foam through it, but overall I find these shapes pretty versatile.

He's surfing it well. If you were in the water, you would think he was absolutely ripping.

For marketing a hybrid board, I think they want to show good fundamental surfing that the average person can aspire to.
