How does this compare to a Joe. I love my Joe, but I wish it had thinner rails. When I push it on bottom turns I find that it fights back a little too much.

Hello from WA Perth, just curious if you were to pick between CI mini and lost puddle jumper which one would you pull out from your quiver and have lots of fun? which one has a more cruisy feel? a more maneuverability? in terms of wave range which one can handle the most?
where can I grab a knubster fin like yours? should I go for futures TMF1 or TMF2 knubster fin?
Hope to hear from you soon.

Just bought a Mini through the best shop in the UK, Yakwax. I've had it for about a month and a half. Surfed it in everything from mushy 1 footers to a couple foot over head, the thing absolutely flies. Paddles super good, catches so many waves, flies around sections and just generally fucking kills in UK summer waves. I've been riding it with the sling shot fins from futures which loosen it up but still make it springy through turns. When you get it on the trim it feels so clean and glides like butter. I've tried a lot of small wave boards over my 15 years of surfing and this thing is the best wave catcher vs high performance yet. My advice to anyone reading this review, if your a competent surfer, scale the thickness down by 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch off stock dims, lighten it up with team light glass and just let the thing fly. I'm 85kg 6'3" and mine is 5'9 x 20 1/4 x 2 7/16 33.2L. Amazing board, so much fun. Hit us up on Yakwax on Facebook or www.yakwax.com for UK orders. This board will stoke you out in summer.

Hi,out of all the shortboards youve reviewed on this channel,which is the most versatile in the 6'2 - 6'6 range?Im kinda novice/intermediate coming down from a longboard/minimal in the last year?

+Ryan The Rock Hey Ryan, tough question! We wrote a post on All Rounders that I think would be useful to you. The V3 Rocket and Hypto Krypto in particular could be good options for you. Check out the article here: http://bit.ly/AllRounderRoundUp


Hope this helps!

Hey Benny, thanks as always...I'm gonna get a new board soon and my options are:
- 5'10" Hypto Krypto
- 5'9" Mini
- 5'8" Pod Mod
Do you have any thoughts on how these boards compare, especially the first two.
Thanks in advance, and cheers from Italy

How many times do you ride a board for before you review it?
CompareSurfboards.com
CompareSurfboards.com - 8 years ago
+Jackson Powers Hey Jackson, it depends on the board. Some take more time to work out than others. Mother nature has to play ball, too. Our goal is to take a board through the rounds in several different types of conditions and wave heights

What's your thoughts on the mini vs the podmod?
GBs

CompareSurfboards.com - 8 years ago
+Glassy Bouys Hey GB, in short, the Pod Mod is looser, more performance oriented whereas the Mini is more old school cruisy fishy feel. Hope that helps!


Thanks for watching!

Nice I really like that board looks so fun.. I feel like it's one of those board you should go as short as you can go sticking to your volume.. I hope to see a review on the pod mod I heard there ridiculous, looking at the dems and in your normal volume a review on a 6'0 would go nicely
JEFF TheWayOfThePineapple
JEFF TheWayOfThePineapple - 8 years ago
+CompareSurfboards.com shoots, I had a really hard time trying to decide between the #4 and the peregrine but I kinda felt like the 4 would have been more versatile and a board I would like in my quiver considering I have a Pyzel slab2 a Pyzel amigo a proctor ghost something more of a grovler feels like something in need

CompareSurfboards.com - 8 years ago
+Jeff Holmes OOOO, the #4 is pretty rad. Let me know what you think if it!

JEFF TheWayOfThePineapple - 8 years ago
+CompareSurfboards.com ahh my bad I actually did watch it I just forgot lol as soon as I saw those futures EA it all came back to me.. I think I really wanna try this mini now more then the podmod.. I actually was watching your review on the #4 last week and you made it seem like so much fun I just ordered a 5'11 grovler on Monday , I live in Hawaii and seems like a perfect board for here on the smaller days
CompareSurfboards.com
CompareSurfboards.com - 8 years ago
+Jeff Holmes Hey Jeff, thanks for that! Yes, while I like the uber paddle of the 6'1, I think the 5'11 would have felt a bit more snappy!


Also, the Pod Mod review is live: http://bit.ly/ChannelIslandsPodModReview  


Check it out and let me know what you think!
