Funny you should say that, I'm tossing up between those boards at the moment.
I hate to say it - but what size board was Dane riding? That video was very underwhelming, but it didn’t strike me as an issue with the board design
It looked like it surfed really flat.
All the videos kinda look like the rocker is really flat.
I've tried most daily driver out there but always end up on the Flyer. My new GX is pretty epic though.
I would expect a small wave board to have a flat rocker

They're advertising it as a small wave board but going off the videos it's certainly not looking like a groveler.
has anyone got real world experience riding this model?
i am in the market for a performance groveller and one is available nearby in my size.
the flatness of the rocker appeals to me.

I'll get some time over the next few days.
"Ride this board 1-2" below your height, bla bla bla" It's a race to the bottom to ride undersized shorties.
And then look at what a seasoned pro rides (yes, I know it's not a Dumpster Diver):
That's a 5'10".5 x 19 1/8 x 2 3/8 OG Flyer x approx 28.7L
Nat is listed at 5'11" 165lbs
His shortboards are usually 5'11" x 18 7/8 x 2 3/8 approx 28L
A stock 5'10-5'11" DD or OGF would have quite a bit more volume/width/thick.
Looking at that photo I find it very hard to reconcile Nat = 5'11 with board = 5'10.5.
It would make sense that he's a little bent over considering the pounding the judges gave him on the 4.03
well, he did say "listed" at 5'11. Presumably Nat made up that list. I'd guess 5'8 IRL, away from the Shire
