Picked up a used Fred Rubble on CL which I've been riding a lot lately, and I LOVE it. Great board for my heavy front foot style, super easy to catch waves on and surf, and plenty of performance for the type of waves I ride. Will be my daily driver from waist to a bit overhead, far prefer it to other boards I've been riding for that range.
But I have a big fear - what happens when my already well-used board wears out??? The Rubble is no longer part of the CI line! All evidence of its existence has been expunged from the CI site!
I imagine (hope) I could still order a custom FR when my current one moves on. But it seems like the Happy was already positioned as the replacement for the Rubble's wave range and purpose. Have any of you ridden both? Thoughts on how they compare?
