Hi I love your reviews because you tests the boards in everyday wave. I also, like better than test done in pools. Have ever compare Mashup vs Dominator 2? I’m have the Mashup use FCS H4 thruster when is choppy and H4 quad when is clean. The Mashup and rides pretty good. I will like to know if there is much differences specifically when waves are pumping 4-6 ft.

Hi mate You should watch the Dom 2 review and have a look at the way that one performs. The D2 is more like a daily driver and works probably a little better (for me) in head high surf that the Mash Up.

Great review Woolly, loved the piss-takes and humour, most enjoyable and relatable review I’ve seen 👍🏼 I have a 6’6 Mash and a 6’8 Dom2 - the Mashup has amazing quirks of brilliance and really does keep speed on the weakest sections- but then sometimes it has the occasional hiccup quirk 🤷🏽‍♂️ Except for perhaps the little extra plane on weak sections I don’t seem to notice a great deal of performance difference from the Dom2 which seems so much easier, or natural to ride. Love em both but recently bought a Kelvinator which again has a life of its own now that I found the right fin combo. My wife wants me to sell one - due to there being so much crossover I chose the Mashup to sell but I put a decent price on it and no one has offered that money (immaculate condition). That’s great, hoping wifey will forget about it because I know I’ll regret it 😂😂😂 Oh yeah, we both know Bruce is always lurking along that stretch… 😅

@@WoolyTV I run them both with a quad keel set up very similar to the Machado Seaside set, but honeycomb from Project Blank at less than a third of the price. They’ve discontinued them atm. I tried two plus one and thruster in the Mashup but didn’t like them. I really like the big drivers in the front boxes with the smaller rears. Perhaps I was hyped up and expecting so much from the Mashup, above the D2… I feel as though the D2 has a similar small wave range but a higher range for overhead surf. That’s for me personally and we’re all so different as riders 😊

Hard to compare them as I rode the Sub Xero as the first board after having 6 months out of the water so I wasn’t surging the beat on that one 😂. I almost rode the Sub Xero at 37L so it was a touch harder to throw around than the Mash Up. I think it’s close but the Mash Up might have felt a touch faster.

@@WoolyTV Fins are accelerator thruster medium. The board is a 6'4 which is a bit big for my weight but not crazy over size. This board has some unforgiving qualities that I think are due to the flat spot in the rocker just behind the mid point. The shorter the board the smaller the flat spot which likely makes shorter versions less prone to the effects. However the board catches wave very easily and has plenty of speed, maybe too much. I live in merewether which is a short sharp king of wave. It's rarely a long ride and sand encroachment on the reefs can make it confused. I'm also old which isn't helpful. 😂 Thanks for asking. 👍
