@@tezf6883 Legendary mate, thanks for the setup tips 👍

It’s Maybe not the best choice for Israel’s waves, but in your wintertime, it would be a good option to surf the beach breaks in Tel Aviv and Herzliya during the head high swells if that helps.

@@jakesboardreviews thank💙

Hey mate, I purchased this board as I enjoyed riding The V3 Rocket previously, and always wanted to try the Rocket Redux. I felt the board lacked the drive I was looking for, and control. However, I didn’t feel hindered performance wise in steeper sections. Not my favourite board I’ve reviewed so far, but I’d still give it another crack

@@adamdagan8065 Hey mate, I would personally say the Inferno 72.

@@GuilhermeSantos-jd2bn Thanks mate, I appreciate the support 🙏

@@bigben007ch Hey mate, I weigh roughly around 70 kgs. In regard to volume, If I purchased an RNF 96 new, I’d most likely buy one with more length. I had the RNF Redux, which is still my favourite board to date. It was a stock 5’5 19 1/4 x 2 1/4 at 27 L, and that was perfect. I personally wouldn’t buy the RNF 96 in a 5’3, as a believe length is your friend. However, my performance didn’t feel hindered if that helps.

@@jakesboardreviews thanks a lot, that is really helpful! I weight the same. I'll head to my local Surfshop and grab the stock one (at a sale price :-) I saw this week.

@@bigben007ch Good on you mate, definitely worth grabbing if it’s on sale. Let me know how it goes for you.

@@user-vx8er7tk2w Hey mate, I’m roughly 5’11 at 70 kgs.

I’m just about the same as you. But I wear 4/3mm wet suite. I’m on the fence. For the board’s width, I might go with the 5’11. You ride Medium fins, right? All the best, from Portugal

Legend mate, I appreciate it, you’re spot on. Criticism is inevitable in any field of work and life. I Appreciate the support mate 👍

The RNF is best ridden as a 2+1, either with The MR Twins in FCS 2 or The Futures T1’s.

Great country, great food and the women are beautiful. I kept the location secret on the channel, but if you know, you know. Awesome experience 👍

Hey mate, sorry for the late reply. It depends what you’re looking for. I would personally recommend the Hypto Krypto from Haydenshapes, or The DHD Phoenix. I haven’t ridden these boards, but for what you’ve described, they’d be good options I think for you if that helps.

@@jakesboardreviews thanks for the reply i appreciate it:)

Hey mate, sorry for the late reply. I think both The KA’s and The MF would work for that concave. The MF’s would offer slightly more hold, whilst the KA’s, will feel less stiff due to less rake if that helps.

You’ll see it in the shorts 👍

This board in my opinion doesn’t handle anything very well above 4.5-5ft surf. I ride the boards I review in a wide range of conditions. Maybe as a round tail, it will handle a slightly bigger wave range.

For me, The RNF 96 doesn’t feel as loose as the black baron 2.1, and it’s easier to ride in my opinion.

How does the RNF hold up in bigger surf?cheers brus

@@jacobtomazin1283 In The Lightspeed construction, I don’t think it would hold as well in bigger surf. If you want it to perform in slightly bigger waves, I would say buy it in a PU. However, I haven’t fully reviewed this one as of yet, so I can’t give a full verdict.

Yeah sweet was definitely thinking of going pu cheers bro

@@jacobtomazin1283 No worries mate, glad I could help.

For me personally, I’ve only ridden it in the lightspeed epoxy construction, but I prefer the RNF 96 to the BV2. There’s a bit more spark under foot for me personally. Both great boards though, for a range of conditions.

Hey mate, I appreciate the support. I don’t know why I didn’t jump on Tokoro’s sooner. I’ll take note of those other models, cheers.

Hey mate, by the Baron 2.0, are you talking about the Red Baron? Because there are a few Barons in The JS Board line. I’ve never ridden the Hypto Twin, so I can’t compare that board to others.

Not my favourite board to be honest, a bit of a weird one.

Thanks mate, I appreciate the support 👍👍

It’s all dependent on the batch and where they are made.

Thanks mate 👍

Thanks mate, appreciate it 👍

No worries mate, glad you enjoyed it 👍

Legendary mate, hope it goes well for you.

Hey mate, my mates cali twin was a stock 5’6. I’m roughly 5’11 in height. I would ideally ride a stock 5’5 if that helps.

Hey mate, sorry for the late reply. I’d recommend you go the stock 5’6, as the 5’5 may feel a bit too small due to it being a 2+1 setup predominantly. I would say buy the Hyfi only if you want to surf this board in the 1-3 ft range if that helps.

Thanks mate, ye a couple fun waves.

You’re not wrong, it was good before that.

Thanks mate, I appreciate it, ye, I got that little inside floater.

I just borrowed a mates board. I’ve ridden this board in the smaller and bigger stuff with no issues. It’s also old and worn, so it isn’t performing at its full potential.

got two slayers 5´10´´ they surf small waves just fine as long as It’s not windslop

@@carlosaramosss8166 Hey mate, yes, it’s definitely quite a versatile board The Rusty Slayer.

Gods Country 🇦🇺

Thanks Ramon

It’s done in a motion. You kick the tail towards the curved peak/ section and spin yourself around, leaning with your back foot and following through with the front.

Legend mate, cheers 👍

JS definitely have some good boards in the range, however, some models are a bit hit and miss. I appreciate the support mate 👍

I’ll always have 10-15 sessions at least on a board before I review it in all conditions. The Fever wasn’t my cup of tea.

@@jakesboardreviews the lost RNF96 looks really good under your feet!

No nothing, it’s just shot at 1080p at 60 frames per second.

Surfing reef is an experience for sure.

They will also get these weird red/pinkish spots on em too

Definitely a negative if you want to sell them afterwards.

Depends on the batch.

Thanks Matty, so close to it mate 🙏🙏

Hey mate, I appreciate the support, I’m based in the Northern NSW region 👍
