retodd knows the deal...this oversized WTF is off the charts, super loose and manueverable and at 6'11 its a retodd "10 to 1"...catches 10 waves to your 1, lol, makes you a lazy surfer though...but I can't get off it
7'0" Long Fish...don't sleep on that either. Tail is pulled in and his rails are just right. Tam Stimps doesn't know how to make a bad bort.
urs a quad or keel?
so giant wtf of long fish? Also, when stamps gonna take orders again?
I love fish, and I like the idea of a long fish, but I think I'd have the same issue as Dane from that Stab EAST video someone posted of him riding a longer Josh Hall: never quite sure how it should be surfed... from the tail or from further forward? Certain I'd get stuck shuffling between the two and never in the right spot when it mattered.
so whatz deal with roswell egg? want to order st when he starts taking orders again. c5 setup?
Just picked this one up. Maybe by the end of the month?
have a 5'9x19.5 grinderX. looking for a shorter fatter flatter grovel board, for softer mushy surf.
is the flare, or WMD something I should be looking? I don't wanna go all the way to a quad fish type board.

I went flare for this, happy I did. my gx is 5’10x19.5x2.28 squash, my flare ended up 5’9x20x2.28 swallow. they are quite different boards but flare is still performance oriented and has better bottom end.
retodds fuse box diamond tial looks tempting, too.
Gx and Flare had a lot of overlap for me. Both great designs. I like the idea of pairing a Gx or Flare with a Fuse and then having a true good wave board, like a Scarecrow, Blindspot, V12, something with a roundtail and no bump.
you guys might be right! I have yet to have try my grinderX in any kind of good waves. and I've had it for over a year!!, but the few times my break is any good, I was on another board! damn it.... yes I plan on keeping the GX. I usually just take my quadfish and know it'll do! but I'm gettin kinda fed up with the fish.
take your GX and your quad fish to tim and have him help you decide. Groveler is a pretty broad term these days.
Just started an order with him today.
