Nah, seen them in a shop here and they looked nice, seen some nice surfing on them out at the Point.

6'10 seems to be sweet spot, maybe 6'8 but will it still have the rail and glide when you need it?

Doesnt feel maneuverable, like I am on an 8ft board rather then a 6'10. Perhaps with perseverance it could be ok but I reckon unless it clicks then flick it.

Fuck I dont know, maybe the fins the board, probably me , in hindsight I havent seen one being surfed in the way I want. Who knows, it isnt clicking though.

Reading Thuds review it seems the straight rail and it’s need for macking surf. Not a daily driver.
Those Big Barrons look fun.
