Does Dan still surf or does he just think of weird ways of describing things he's done before whilst he counts his Firewire millions?

OB1 has a good amount of rocker. X-wing has less rocker. But OB1 turns more easily. @oeste858 has an X-wing and I think he likes it for the waves about SD.
Dan on the X-wing. It was a japan only edition, but he made it available for custom. I've always wanted one, so maybe that's why im saying go OB1. lol.

Over a year ago! Since then he's come up with the VQC, the MDT, the PLD and the QLHSJH. All wrapped in parabolic flux capacitor equilibrium BONSAIbuilD.
Maybe KISS is the way to go? Time to order another McNeill with the tried and tested Torus channel (despite being so 2016) straight up the guts.
Used calipers on a FW Revo at HSS, and thickness is definitely being measured at the spine of the vee. The stock 5’6 on Dan’s website is 2 1/2, and my custom too. The 5’6 FW Revo rails felt just like mine. But it was listed as being thicker.
When I used the calipers on the midpoint spine, it came out at the listed thickness. But when I moved the calipers up slightly to the front foot area where the spine goes away, the calipers read 2 1/2 on the dot. And no this was not due to the foil.

I-BOLIC SURFBOARDS
Firewire’s New Ibolic Construction Firewire has spent the past year innovating newer, better construction processes for its wide range of boards—which is pretty impressive, since it already led the industry in futuristic tech. The latest option is the Ibolic Construction, which replaces the LFT...

nice lawn but you're not doin it any favors by parking your SUV on it. you buy the FW Revo?
Yes sir! Got one!
Yeah...the wife parks in the middle (she thinks she owns the driveway) and I had crap in the back to unload so I parked it in the grass. lol.
Hey Reforest, Do you prefer this FW version to your Tomo one or too early to say? How does it compare against your HS and SKX for low end grovelling, speed and upper wave range. I still haven’t pushed the buy button on Sci fi 2 and am torn between this and Sci fi which I assume will be released in the new tech shortly so keen to hear thoughts on wave range and performance. Looking for something to cover thigh to head high but can make a late drop in steeper surf Revo looks like it could be great with increased rocker
The Revo grovels. Even with the increased rocker, it's still a board on the lower end, but it can be pushed more than the Evo. I noticed no difference on the low end between the Evo and the Revo.
