haha. good to have some options.

ya super was super easy to deal with. Jason Koons in particular is a straight shooter and amazing shaper. Will be ordering more boards from them in the future. stocked! :shaka::drowning:
You like straight shooting men too?

I'd like to see my buddy get one and he's aiming for the swallow tail. Well he was going to get one until the world got rona'd

West of the Atlantic. East of the ICW.
Can anyone answer if they still use S-glass as stock? Asked them via IG, email, etc, but noone's gotten back to me. Saw in an old Real review they did S as stock, but wanted to confirm...
My boys have had a few Supers and I've got to say they've had the best glass jobs I've ever seen on what I consider to be mass produced stock rack boards. Their glass jobs are tight and their boards stay whiter longer than the competition. CI should take notes.

fling has a decent amount of concave. mine is moderate single to pronounced double. what futures quad+nub wud u rec? griffin wud be top choice for fins but mine is futures. maybe an adapter?

otherwise i'll just stick with super large trusty setup. am2's felt too big. super quad set was too loose.

Yo Havoc. I have Mani's AK4 on my 56 Fling and love it. I believe Mani says its based off the AM template. Loose and drive. Have tried with AMs thruster set but like the quad better. I have a set in Futures sitting in my garage, you're welcome to try it out (I am in OC). :shaka:

My favorite Fling quad set so far is the Roberts Honeycomb Large fronts with the Roberts 80/20 rears. Looser than the AM2's but still plenty of fin to push off of and keep that fat ass tail under control.

I found the fling to be build with so much speed that thruster helps the board to pivot quicker especially in smaller waves, tried it in quad a few times, good when it gets more hollow but didnt find it added more value than thruster. What a board !

If you do happen to like the Superbrand fin set, Koons has been blowing them out on ebay for $50 for the quad set.

sm-med fins seem small for that tail. I'd probs need Lg.
Is yours the "OG Rounded Diamond"? Most have this tail or squash? Any preference for gravel? The shallow swallow also looks pretty good for quad.

The melody of that song Lunatic Fringe comes into my head whenever I hear Superbrand Fling.
(Chords in parenthesis for those who want to try it out)


SuperBrand Fling! (in D)

I know that you're out there. (in Bm)

Thinking about which fins. (D)

Is it quad or is it a thruster? (BM)

Talk with Greg Griffin (A)

And ride it with the G10's (Bm)

Or maybe talk to the erBB (A)

And change it to a bonzer (BM)

Whoa oh oh oh, Whoa oh oh oh (BM)

SuperBrand Fling!
