Ryan The Rock hey mate. Yeah I could have gone down a size really. That's pretty high on the volume even for me but funny thing is it doesn't feel that beefy and actually rides really nice. Kinda has me wondering if it would be epic a touch shorter or if it's actually good as it is. Especially in our weak waves it performs great for my ability and doesn't feel like all that much more more volume than some of my boards with a couple of litres less. Think ideally I would have liked a either a custom 5 fin 2 litres down maybe when the stock 6'2" but I'm actually really happy with that way it rides. It's not that wide a nose for a board that's supposed to be a groveller think for the average guy in average waves it's more of a daily driver .. cheers.

Debating between this and the Lost Uber Driver XL as a travel board/board for slightly bigger days on the UK East coast (I have a bean bag grovel board). It lacks punch here even on bigger days though so struggle to get into waves on a shortboard. It sounds like you really rate the lost but also sounds like it needs quite specific waves? So I guess my questions are: Which paddles best? How does performance differ? Which is the better allrounder? I'm 5'11 190lbs so guess I'd be looking at 6'2" in both... Cheers!

Hey mate , thought I had replied on this one sorry.. To be honest depending on the size of waves your expecting and your style etc I would probably consider a Quiver or Psycho Killer they might be a touch less responsive but they go in a good range of waves. Kinda depends on weight to volume ration too as to how much they will grip. I ride pretty high volume for my weight so have to be careful to keep them from sliding out. You weight exactly the same as me so should find similar results. The Uber XL is a great little performer but probably has a bit more of a wave size sweet spot. It's not going to generate masses of it's own speed in slow smaller waves. The Rocket wide will make a bit more speed but it's possibly also not ideal if the wave size steps up to decently overhead depending on the spot etc. Rocket wide has a lot of volume under the back foot which is great for when you do want it.. I think either could sit really nicely above your bean bag if your sticking to RW or Uber Xl but if your getting into decently overhead and heavier waves maybe other options might have an edge but mainly head to head and a bit and not crazy heavy waves either would be good. Rocket wide is a little more smaller wave still perform decent orientated, Uber is a bit more daily driver fair to decent quality waves chest to a bit overhead I rekon but that's just my opinion. Cheers.

Thanks Mike. I'm 5'7" 84 Kg's and i'm ok but still pretty average and our waves are very slow..I'm 42 and not all that fit too :-) lol so I tend to ride volume that would work fine for a heavier guy to make up for the waves and my lack of fitness and ability. I usually range 40-45 litres on shortboards. 40-43 shortboard/hybrid and 42-45 grovellor depending on what's available and what it's made form .. Poly go higher epoxy lower end if that helps. I tend to like around 5'11" to 6'4" in length too. I have mates that surf the other coast and ride my volume or less that are 6ft and nearer 100kgs If I were at a decent break the size down would be sweet for me and if I had ordered custom I would have probably gone this length but knocked 1/8 out of the thickness and got it in a 5 fin.. I just really liked the look of the board in the shop and they had a good offer on. The outline and rocker and everything looked spot on for me at the 6'4" length. It actually carries that extra volume ok too as the nose and tail are well blended .. The nose is not that wide compared to what i'm used to to be honest so that's what steered me to the 6'4" and at 6'4" i wouldn't really call it a groveller either I would probably pull this board out for chest to overhead waves here but it's a very flat faced wave mainly long-boarders as I say. The JS Psycho Nitro is worth a look too not that dissimilar boards both wide in the middle but with a nice tuck in nose and tail .. Depending on what your used to of course... CI boards almost always lean a bit more to performance in general especially on the scaled pro models. This is very easy to ride forgiving and still flows and performs really nicely cheers.

How would you compare the Quiver Killer rails to the rails on this Rocket Wide?
@lawson45uk
5 жыл бұрын
Ryan The Rock Hi Ryan. Yeah quite different in the rail thickness .. keep in mind that the rocket wide is higher volume though at 44.5. The rocket wide is definitely thicker, wider and more boxy in the tail so good speed and flow but has a lower top end to its wave height. The quiver killer has a more even volume distribution and shape and thins out a lot in the tail to help with grip. Again. My quiver killer is custom so a touch thicker and I have seen the rocket wide in the size below and it looks quite different but for me the rocket wide is more based around being still reasonably narrow nose and quite a wide high volume tail the quiver killer is pretty balanced and a performance hybrid for a wider range of waves. They would both ride from around the waist to chest high rocket wide doing slightly better at the lower end and I would say both would ride in head plus. Probably upto head and a half or double for the quiver killer. Rocket maybe head an a half at a push depending on the size and volume. Both do what they're designed to do very well. Rocket wide to me is a nice performance small wave board waist to just over head quiver killer is an all rounder with a large wage range probably chest to well overhead comfort range. Hope that helps.

Not sure the spine tech will feel like 40 litres if it's 38. The board model is quite thick under the back foot compared to many others though. If your concerned go a custom and get you 40 litres. EPS might feel like .5-1 litre more probably more likely. Board model paddes decently though.

Hi Sorry for the late reply only just getting round to checking for the messages I have missed. Yeah similar but different.. Psycho Nitro is a little more fishy up front but narrows up in and thins out in the tail. Rocket wide is a little more narrow in the nose but is really thick under the back foot. Both great boards depends on what suits you best. Both have some good speed and glide built in but still perform. If I could only have one short board for waves upto say head high or a bit more these would probably be on my top few models list. I personally got on a little better with the Psycho but I like a quad generally and used to a forward wide point and bigger nose. For my ability and where I surf the Rocket Wide is almost as performance as I would need for most of the time. The Psycho is a great board too both easy to ride. just need to have a look at the boards the rockers the volumes and lengths your looking at Epoxy Or Pu etc and make a call on what suits you best. If you want a similar board with a bigger wave range than either I really love the Lost Psycho Killer too so maybe another one to consider. Thanks.
