Von Sol Shadow: Review and Pics
- Thread starter Oceanslide
- Start date
Happens when back and hip(s) are jacked. Saw him the other day and not as Full
One of the best aspects of Sean’s board is that you can ride them n higher volume dims, like Sean does, and they’re still as high performance as most anyone needs.
I can't imagine the shadow 2 being better. The changes made are for economical reasons ie, the e-wing design is hard/expensive to shape and glass.
(Vid says it all)
Shadow is still one of the most user friendly performance shapes I’ve ever had. I’ve had like 5 or 6 of various sizes and they scale up very well. Have a 6’2” currently, and have had 5’10”-6’7” versions. The Shadow2 is more shortboard-ish and likely better for more critical waves. Only thing I don’t like about most of the bigger (mid) Shadows is that when they get to 2 3/4 thickness, the rails are pretty chunky. I’d go 2 5/8 on any longer lengths or (if custom) specify more foiled rails on thicker boards.
Shadow is a proven, super versatile board.

spot on. Ive also had several Shadows and def. a Swiss Army Knife type of board. When I was recovering from surgery I got a 7 footer and while it works its def. on the Chunky side. Cant seem to get the urge to sell it though LOL. Good Crowd Killer when busy out there.
Mattison's surfing still looks really good on his current board lineup
Sean was always good about building higher volume boards that still turn and can be surfed high performance in most So Cal conditions.
