i'm around 215lbs. have ridden it up to 240lbs too. that's max capacity for both the board and me. i can't recall if I've ever picked up a Slab to look at. Tanner did show me a bigger guy Slab 2.0. I'd say that's closer to a PyzAlien.MidWestAus said:

I grew up with Luis...stoked for him and what he's accomplished :hat: :wave2: Damn! Homeboy must be packing a gut now :grin: that's mucho litros!oneula said:
Yeah just make sure you go at least 1/8 inch thinner than the Slab but I'd probably go even thinner than that. They have soooo much foam.MidWestAus said:

Thanks for the help everyone.
Ordering the Pyzalien Swallow Tail at 6.2 x 20 3/4 x 2 5/8 (38L) as a stepdown to a recent order of a Slab Round Tail at 6.4 x 20 1/4 x 2 7/8 (38L).
Feedback was to keep the Pyzalien at no more than 2 5/8 in thickness and that the Pyzalien will paddle / float better than the Slab at the same literage.

i was riding JC1 hexcores for a long time. felt great. recently bought the John John in Large. Felt REALLY REALLY good. drivy, snappy, solid hold. in the large template I've also tried AM2's and didn't like them. super trackie (moreso than a bonzerMidWestAus said:
)Had both in the same size almost. SS2 less foam up front more drive (a bit more "shortboard" in general). Alien goes vertical quicker and is a bit more loose but depends on fins etc. Alien could probably handle more size (steeper too) if you angled the take off. Pretty similar but the SS2 grovels better. Alien felt bigger even at a half litre less....nexttozen said:
FYI after I wasn't feeling my step down I grabbed a like new Electralite 5'11 Pyzalien from the Pyzel factory. I've gone through just about every "high end" epoxy construction out there including 2x JS hyfi, 2x Carbon wraps, FWs etc and have always wished I was on a poly most of the time. Maybe I was sold on the marketing because I wanted them to work for me. In the end none did until now. The Electralite is absolutely awesome. It's a different shape so that could help but this doesn't feel as ... epoxy-ish? As in.. it has the good qualities like spring and lightness but it's still great in wind and chop, doesn't feel like it's lacking down the line momentum despite the weight, and doesn't chatter on bottom turns. The craftsmanship is wonderful and it ticks all of the boxes for a daily driver. Super fast, lots of hold, loose when needed. It's an insane board. If you're unsure of Electalite - don't be scared! There's a difference when it's locally made (Y)
SO stoked to hear your feedback on your Electralite Pyzailen! That was exactly what we are aiming for when we made them.
