@@eamonshields2754 sea side is more flow and down the line, The cardo will give you more in the pocket style surfing

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Thanks!

@@Eidref102 the js fins or the EN in futures

Hey mate it also depends on your weight as well?

@@10SNE1 hi mate I weigh 85kg

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Thanks, I’m 80kg. 5’6” feels a bit large but I’m not sure if i want to drop down to the 5’4”

@@10SNE1 yer I would say 5’4 with your weight, As I’m riding the 5’6 and it floats no problems at all but still easy to ride, But depends on what volume you are normally riding

@@bangsnap2651 going off what you are saying I would recommend the 5’9 as I was riding the 5’8 at 32.8L and I weigh 85kgs But you could easily go the 5’10 if you are wanting more paddle, What volume are you riding at the moment? Cheers

@@trestlesrocks hi mate I’m 5’11 and 85kg I was loving the 5’6 as I normally ride around 32L I would recommend with your height and weight they 5’8, But that also depends on how you want it to surf, Also the 5’8 will be a lot easy paddle then the 5’6, Cheers

@@Eidref102 if you are going quads the pivots are pretty much the same, If you got two plus one go the new black stix twins, Thanks

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 which quad you recommend? I love me some quad especially when it's a bit bigger

@@johnnyhadji7841 thanks mate I would be saying the 5’2 going of weight and size, However it also depends on your ability and what volume you are already riding, Thanks

​@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Do you no the Machado Cado 5'6 is 2 9/16 thick and the 5'8 is 2 1/2 thick? So the 5'8 is actually thinner then the 5'6, I felt both sizes under arm and the 5'8 feels a little thinner then the 5'6 cado which I like. Has anyone noticed this?

@@surfskateaddict5253 I would definitely say the cado is way deeper!

@@robertbrow6289 hey Robert, I haven’t got one to try at this stage! But if I do I will definitely be putting up a review! I’m going to say that this board is faster than the flame fish on softer waves, However that new HYFI tech is insane so could be a game changer for that board..

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 legend thanks for the reply Bowie!

@@kenkohncke7929 I would be saying more like the flaming pony, With a deeper double concave and thinner in the tail!

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 I know you have surfed the flaming pony, have you also tried the flame fish? If so which do you prefer out of the 3? and why? Also is there really any difference between the flame fish and flaming pony, or is it just the same board re-branded?

@@kenkohncke7929 so flaming pony wider outline and closer to the cado, The flame fish probably closer the the old js nitro, But the new HYFI 3.0 could be game changing in that new tech

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Saw the Cado at Alex BB yesterday when I was ordering my 6'8" Boss-Up. It looks sick, looks to have more tail lift than my old Flaming Pony and my Seaside. Definitely more than my old Chum Lee and Twice Baked. I like that think it should turn well even when the waves have a bit of push.

Does it turn yellow?😢😮😅

@@NetherlandsBusiness that’s a tough one! I do still like the Baron flyer, However I would say this board is more forgiving for most surfers I feel, The Baron flyer will suit more of a shortboard surfer!

@@jodiah5 I’m not to sure on that one I feel you contact js and they maybe able to send one over!

@@Henry46444 I would say it’s a better small wave board compared to it! Wider tail allowing more in the pocket surfing on small waves

​@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Thanks for getting back to me. Do you find it's loose enough in small waves with the single concave? I've only really ridden single to double concave in my small wave boards

@@Henry46444 Hi Henry, Yes definitely find it gets plenty of release in small waves, But still holds well on the bottom turn. For the sunshine coats I really feel it’s great small wave shortboard,

Yes! Way better flex patten, I found the HYFI to be abit stiff at times, The new HYFI feels more alive under your feet,

We need a thruster review

Hi mate, If you are wanting more of a flowing a cruise styler board with open face turns go the sea side & beyond, If you are wanting more performance in the pocket and to ride steeper waves go the boss up! Both great boards I personally feel sea side & beyond is a great point break board, Thanks

Thanks mate, That’s a 6’8 and I’m 85kgs,

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 and how tall? Cheers

I’m 176 mate

Hey mate, No a little less rocker then the el Baron, However less nose width in it! They are both great models for hollow waves, I have got some epic barrels on this board and the el Baron

I would say it’s abit more all round, The big double concave running through the board really helps in small waves, I really like the el Baron good in big waves, I feel for the Sunshine Coast the boss up is one of the best all round mids for our waves!

Have you tried the chilli mid strength and how does it compare

That’s epic!! I’m glad you are loving it!

You must have special YT coz in the rest of the worlds YT there is literally 4 videos about the Boss 😂

For all round surfing yes!! Mid 6 I found likes bigger waves

would love to know that too

We haven’t had any issues with them going yellow!

Hi no I haven’t tried those, I would say the Britt to be the pick I feel for that shape board, Would definitely give you more drive and speed down the line, Not as much in the pocket as the power twins tho

Yeah but they last 3 times as long.

Hi mate, Glad you liked it, I went a little bit more volume then my frk+ and it was bang on! I normally ride 32L and went up to the 33L in this due to the low rails on it! I hope this helps,

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Just a heads up: Then = a moment in time Than = compared to 👍

I would say faster then the FRK+ However still give you response in the pocket, Would say it grovels a little better.

I would say more of a forgiving shape, That will suit a lot of surfers, Some tomo boards aren’t for everyone, I do love my revo tho!

@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 thank you. great looking shape

Yep. It's a new one. As waves, oceans, laws of physics etc change, it is important to change board designs. Or, in most cases, revert back to a design from a few years ago

To be honest the dominator 2 is a great board, But the speed the S boss gets out of the hole for me I love it more then the dominator 2 to be honest!

Same question. Will it hold more on steep waves? Because the dominator will definitely won’t hold.

Thanks for the review ! how do you think this would go in good 4 -5ft indo waves, would the speed start getting hard to manage ?
