The rail is what everyone immediately comments on, it doesn't feel like a JS rail at all. You can easily go up "two thickness increments over your normal thickness" and it not feel chonky.
I have the 5.7 and surfed it as a quad at first and now as a 2+1. Both these set ups are fantastic - didn't even bother as a thruster.
I like the looks of this one, maybe it would go good a bit longer and narrower? thinking 5'9 x 19 5/8 x 2 9/16 in the 30.5-31L range
I don't like super short boards, had a lost rocket and pyzel rip off years ago at 5'8 and that was short enough
had one of those stupidly short CI fishcuits a while back too
this is not the flaming pony, why are you suddenly scared of creating yet another thread? 
Ace Buchan on the same board, this is about as big as it will reliably handle
Such a trip saver.

a proper groveler has been one of the greatest things to happen to me in surfing
I've ridden a groveler probably 70% of the time in CA over the past few years.
I'm kinda surprised in your videos I would have expected you to ride your blady shortboards in those conditions, as I wouldn't even be on my groveler.
You wouldn't have been on your groveler but you would have wished you were on a groveler.
Those waves have zero punch. True dribble.
Bog city unless you're 80 lbs.
what happened to the lowers videos?
also found the vid at northside and it looked chest to shoulder on you

I'm talking about the old videos of Lowers.
I consider knee-thigh high, drained out Lowers breaking in a few feet of water to be a grovel.
So does pretty much every adult that is catching any waves out there and not bogging.
That's why a groveler is the call.
The board makes it look much better than it is.
your definition of grovel is far different than mine. I can;t believe you surf as much as you claim you do. I've got 50 pounds on you and I wouldn't be on my groveler in those waves
They're still there.
under that clip I wrote that the board was redlining.
"I'm completely nursing it to not totally lose it."
Mine is anything under waist high.
huh. OK.
You'd be wishing you were on a groveler.
Anyone who surfs Lowers on the reg would agree with me
You're either drunk, trolling, or both.
Your impetus to bicker goes up when you're drunk, so probably both.
