I have to agree

Enjoy, sure you will be up and going in no time.

Ahoy, many of the top brands make larger sizes, but you may have to order direct as the stores don't stock. If you are still struggling then you will need to custom order. Brands like 7till8 do full tailored suits. Hope that helps.

Thanks brother I appreciate the info @@TheRegularGuyReview

Aaah thanks bud, appreciate it. For the area you are talking about and the waves, I would definitely recommend the CI in the 7'6, same size I rode. Loved it. Very versatile and paddles great. Also the Pyzel, especially if he wants to surf bigger, heavier waves at some point. Let me know what you go with and how he likes it?

@@TheRegularGuyReview thanks for getting back to me. That was actually the one I was thinking after watching your vids. Much appreciated and I’ll let you know how he likes it. 🤙

Wow would love to see the big pin. They really go well as smaller boards and can handle some juice.

@@TheRegularGuyReview Well, I have photos of it. I ended up reshaping it into a 9’ version. Moved the wings further back and left it super thick. I ended up making the rails softer due to moving the wings aft so far. The resulting board was slower and looser. I ride that for a while and realized I liked the old design better as the old one was longer and faster. Had I hardened the rails, and kept the sting further forward I would’ve been happier even at 9’. One day I walked into a Surfshop and saw a beautiful 10’6 glider I wanted, so I traded the 9’. I’ve ridden the newer 10’6 near a year now. Tried multiple fin set ups, installed FCS plugs and tried even more fin set ups. Still not quite right. I miss the sting board with hard rails aft of the sting. If I could go back in time I would have run a tucked edge to near the nose on the old 10’2 for even more speed, but I had visions of trying to fit my board into my truck bed for a drive to Mexico. The original 10’2 was a generic soft rail glider round pin I had shaped with soft rails, which I hated. That was the reason for putting sting in to the rails in the first place. The hard rails and pivot point moved up added a lot of speed and allowed the board to turn from further forward. Somehow I had forgotten I hated soft rails through all these changes. It’s like having a parking brake on while driving. Kills the performance outside of small pivot turns. The old 10’2 I ran with a D fin. Went pretty good. It was olive green on the bottom with a black deck with olive cross stripes. Wicked board it was. I have photos. The current 10’6 is clear pin tail and currently riding as an FCS thruster. I found the thruster fin set up makes it feel like a giant short board. I can even do round house cutbacks on bigger waves. It’s interesting. I would have loved trying that fin set up on the old stinger 10’2. Eventually I’ll do another stinger board and be sure to add some FCS plugs for experiments. They make as big a difference as the stinger does in how it feels. I know a fin set up like that is sacrilege, but I love to experiment. Sometimes it pays off well, other times it’s a dud. That’s how we learn. Never did make it to Mexico. One day.

Hi, I never surfed it as a twin, but preferred it as a Quad, so I reckon it could work. We don't get JS in SA, would love to test the Big Baron. My favourite is still the CI Mid, I am waiting on a Mid Twin and very excited.

@@TheRegularGuyReview thank you

Ya most mids will struggle a little in the bowls, I normally head for the stumpy twin then.

I agree, loves good waves, much like the Pyzel. For me the CI is the best all-rounder. I am excited to try the CI Twin Mid.

Aaah thanks bud! Lekker greetings from SA

Hey bud, my top lock for all rounder is the CI with the 2+1 fin setup - absolutely love it. The Chilli is great for chunky and powerful surf, especially as a quad. I am waiting for a CI mid twin to try out. Thanks for watching and engaging.

Surprisingly a very good paddle, but you ain’t wrong on your feedback. I am very amped to try out the quiver killer, always wanted to surf one. Thanks for watching and engaging.

@@TheRegularGuyReview would be awesome to get your review and opinion on the QK. I have one in libtech construction however and it’s a bit on the heavier side but it’s fine on strong offshore days or if there’s some chop. It does also feel slightly sluggish on fatter waves but I think could also be my fin choice. Hope you get your hands on QK soon and look forward to a review on it.

Ya it went amazing. Would love to try more singles. If we can get the board to SA I would love that. Thanks for the great comments and support:

Thanks man. Some fresh content coming soon.

Thanks for watching 🤙

Have to agree, the new 8 speed is incredible.

I definitely want to try it out 👍

さ😊😊

Thanks

Haha thanks. It did surprisingly well

You could definitely go shorter, but work with them on getting your volume right. I would go at least 5-8 litres higher than your shortboard. I surf 42L shortboard and my mid 52/54L - having said that I don’t like going to short on the mid as you lose the glide factor. Hope that helps

@@TheRegularGuyReview yep makes sense , another reason is i want to smooth out my surfing and get my technique dialled in more , understand where my turns are coming from . I’m not sure they make them less than 6’6 though lol. I’ll check around to see what custom orders I can get. Thanks buddy , your videos are awesome 😎

@@SurferKroky hey yes they do -- its called the 'middy' goes to a 5'10

The x55 is SAAB

Hi, did not buy it but have since driven the new version with an 8 speed gearbox. It’s an incredible improvement on performance and gearing. All in all a fantastic car for the price when you compare to Jeep at twice the price.

@@TheRegularGuyReview Well , tomorrow afternoon ive booked in for a test drive , ill let you know how it goes :)

FYI ..... Picked up my new car . I went for the Champion B40 with the 8speed gearbox , very happy 😊

In thing this would be a great crossover board for you.

Good value 👍

Ahoy, busy planning some eps - been struggling to find a filmer in Zululand and I need a new camera. But I am working on it.

​@@TheRegularGuyReviewglad to read we might not be waiting forever. Miss those vids...

Both are great Mids. I found the Chilli a bit better on the paddle and very good on the rail. All round performance I would give to the CI.

thanks

Hi, I am 5’11 and 110kg

Wow amazing. Met Clive and have surfed a bunch of his old boards. One of the biggest mysteries in SA surf is what happened to his old surf movie. Robby at vudu has one or two of his boards in our Rolling Retro collection. Perhaps he could chat with you and ship one?

I am afraid I don’t.

Thanks man - hope you enjoy it

The Saab engine is in the x55 suv
