Awesome series mate. I've seen a lot of reviews on small waves performance and grovellers on the channel and kind of learn already how to pick those to category of boards. Now I missing reviews on boards for those days when the cyclones hits the coast and we have to deal with a bit of current and 6ft + waves. Hope you include those in this series. Keep the good work mate 👍

Noel! love the stuff. Id love a video talking about how to to work on 'flow'. I hear the judges always talk about how a competitor doesn't waste any movements and is fluid through their turns. Id love a video breaking that down.

Thanks for the great video! Nice to see a Torq board in the lineup. Even though it’s not their original design. People knock the Torq boards but I’ve had a few and they’re great boards for the low price 👍🏼

Great video Noel!! Your channel is becoming a surfboard encyclopedia

Loved this series-hope you get the opportunity to do the same with grovelers, daily drivers, and fishes

Killer surfing on those favorites!

Got a Lost RNF (anniversary edition - which i think is a similar/the same outline as the 96) and i played around with different fin setups for ages before lastly trying it as a twin....wow, turned it from a good board to an unbelievable board. Great review as always!

This is one of the best series you’ve had. I hope you get the chance to do the same with daily drivers and grovelers

the modern 2 from sharpeye is great too

I just bought the exact same RNF96. I have three: Poly, Black Sheep, and Light Speed. Best board I’ve ever ridden. Does everything in anything. It’s something special; a board that does no wrong. My Seaside I use when it’s small small. Fastest I ever went from pumping alone was on a my seaside on a shin high wave. It was a rocket-ship! I took the Seaside out all last winter on over head days. It’s toooooo fast. And, it’s a bit hard to turn in big surf if you pump more than twice down the line…you’ll just be going too fast. I had to consciously remember only one pump off the take off or I was doing 100mph and dusting the entire wave before I knew what happened. On some days, I guess that’s a good thing when you don’t want to get closed out on stuck behind big giant bomb sections. 🤷🏽‍♂️ But, yeah it’s has a way different approach, and all the lines you take are diagonal for sure. Taking off on steeper stuff requires a different line. 🤙🤙

how do the three different constructions in the 96 compare to you? particularly is the black sheep worth it over light speed, and do either get too chattery with texture on the surface compared to the poly. Good to know about the Seaside as well, I've been itching to give one a try.

@@wesleychapman9001 so, I haven’t ridden the Black Sheep yet. I just ordered it from Catalyst in FL. I was watching them disappear online everywhere over the last 3 months, so I jumped. My Poly is the best frankly. But it has had 13 ding repairs. I live on Big Island. All Lava. The light speed is chattery on bigger days. But it has its moments. It has more snap whereas the poly has more feel and natural flow. Sadly, because everyone says eps floats better I dropped an inch on my light speed, and it wasn’t the same. It’s a bit too short in my estimation. I had the exact fin set up, 2 + t captain specials, but they didn’t work on the EPS. Too much drag. The one inch less in rail line makes a huge difference and the eps feels fatter and more round, and less knifey in the tail. The tail even looks thicker on the EPS, which I don’t like. I put Noel’s neutrals on it and ride his fins with the old tiny t, and as a full thruster. They are a little less upright so I can push more off the bottom where I’m losing out with drive from less rail line. That’s the best way to describe it. I went back up an inch with black sheep, so I’ll keep you posted. Our waves should be getting good. I’m gonna toss a set of Taylor Knox fins on the Black Sheep. I want a little last minute hold because my upright captains seem to lose grip at a certain point on my wrap, bogging me a bit. Top to bottom they’re sick though, loose and fast. But I used to live in Waikiki 20 years and longboarded with a big swoop fin. That Taylor Knox fin has a big base with a swoop tip. I saw Mick had that same design with his 2+ t fins. I’m hoping the concept holds over from what I remember that feel like on my longboard when I was cranking a wrap. It would give me that last minute boomerang effect just before any bogging could happen. We’ll see. If not, gonna order another neutral fin set from Noel or maybe his 2 + t. Not sure yet. But the RNF96 is the best board all around for any day I’ve ever surfed. First day I rode it and everyday after it was just magic under foot. You don’t surf it, it surfs itself, you just follow along.

@@gglendormi I have not ridden another board in months since i got this thing. The C4 construction handles chop like a poly but has a little extra pop. I have ridden it in knee high to overhead waves and i love it. When it's head high or more i usually throw in a thruster set but most of the time I'm on a 2+1. I don't think you'll be disappointed just get your dims dialed if not going stock. I ordered mine a half ltr more plus the eps is another half so it's like 1 ltr more than stock. Hope that helps.

Noel, it seems like you only review more mainstream shapers’ boards, but you’ve got to get your hands on a Von Sol Shadow. I’ve ridden a few of these, and the Shadow as a quad blows them out of the water. It’s super-fast and by-far the best one-board quiver hybrid that I’ve ridden!

You said the Rocket Wide was the best small wave performance board in waves from 1to 3 foot waves.And I have found the same in my Rocket Wide Spine Tek at 5'4" same dims you tested.And I have even had alot of fun in the 3 to 4 foot hurricane swells this past summer here in Florida I out in the N.V.S. comps in the g10 special fiberglass Larges.I am 5'6 150lbs and bro those fins were incredible the flex was crazy for the overall speed but the fins hold and then drive out of turns was amazing for how the short rail line Rocket Wide was able to really settle down in turns with heaps of speed coming out of them to be ahead of section with ease.And the fins helped the board drop in on pretty steep takeoffs because as soon as those super fiberglass fins engage the wave face the fin depth held the board closer to the wave no air getting under the board.And once your up and going the board felt like a performance board but 3" shorter. I think the tail rocker and the The NVS APEX SERIES COMP larges. Can't wait to put in my new boards coming for winter season. But was just surprised the Rocket Wide didn't make the top 5 of the Hybrid performance board category. Highly recommend doing a review of those NVS APEX SERIES FINS because they were super fast and responsive in 1 to 3 feet made the board accelerate so quick it was next level without slipping it was flexing all the way thru turns and accelerating out with the fins flexing back to shape rockets the board in front of the next section.

Would be fun to run some polls with your Patreon community to see which boards have worked for them from these picks. I see a lot of good commentary there and you could even break out by self reported experience level. Maybe youtube polls would be fun too, but easier to spoof?

the Chili BV2 epoxy in "pure" grovel condition isn't my preferred option up to now, but it might change with time, maybe too because I feel like twins are definitely killing it in groveling conditions ... I've to work hard to generate speed, seems a bit sticky sometimes. In small weak waves the best set up for met is to put 2 side M fcs reactors + MR twin stabilizer in the middle, board is looser and faster, it is fun. As soon as waves are a bit bigger and stronger (in grovel conditions still), I put 3 fcs reactors (I've tried MR 2+1, carbon stiffer reactors, fcs performer ... disappointing). As an example, my CI fishbeard with same dims and volume is working much better to grovel. The BV2 starts to shine when the wave pushes correctly, I would say at the top end of groveling :-) it is really responsive and sensitive in the tail which I love. Definitely a crazy good paddler, I know I will take any wave coming up. I probably still have to figure out if I can find a better fin setup to make it grovel like magic :-)

My main concern about it is that I love "slim" noses with some rocker (more perf orientated) and because in grovel conditions and when waves are better I can't surf it as I would like too, I have fun only in very particular conditions. this is really subjective, the only way too know is to try ! in the same category I think the JS black baron is killing it !!

I have the pod mod in Torq construction. After about 6 months of scanning my local shops, I lucked upon a very rare one that's actually as light as a standard (4/6 oz glass) PU, but most Torq pod mods are disturbingly heavy. I'm guessing it's the white paint they frequently glop on to cover sloppy work. Furthermore, the newest version (x-lite 2.0) seems to be the heaviest. Mine is awesome, but, if it somehow got destroyed, I wouldn't waste my time looking for another good Torq. I'd probably opt for a libtech RNF 96 with futures boxes...but, of course, would have to inspect a bunch of those, too.

But in roundhouse cutback we do need to go to the bottom before hitting the rebound. Does this mean that we should know which kind of cutback we’re going to perform at the very beginning of the maneuver? If so, how do we choose between the both? Thanks.

I cannot find your comment so I will answer it here…. In. Roundhouse Cutback you might go to the bottom of the wave at some point when you are in transition from cutting back and then hitting the lip. However… depending on much wave face you have to do your Roundy will determine the lines you draw. Sometimes I find myself at the bottom of the wave in the roundhouse but it’s never something I think about when I start the cutback. Bottom line is need to keep your speed up and the further you go to the bottom the more vertical you can take the rebound… but you gotta keep your speed up.

Missing the Evo... Better than most of those.

Would be good to know your height and weight otherwise the boor dimensions are kinda useless. You should put in the description. Thanks

Gremlin is a Groveler… not a 1-Board quiver. These 5 boards are epic in 3-6’ surf too

What would you consider the gremlin to top out in size wise? I ride mine in anything under head high. Love the content by the way!

Good question- I ride my 6-3 Pyzel Gremiln in waist to head and a half.... For me, it is the best 1 board quiver I have ever had (so why do I have 3 Gremlins, a Shadow, and 2 Astro Pops?) Haha. Thanks for the content, makes me want to try them all!
