I test these boards in waves ranging from 1-2’ peaky beach break to 3-5’ point break. A couple unique attributes about this model is its flat deck and wide nose. The flat deck offers good flex and a lively feel under foot. The wide nose helps with paddling coupled with a staged rocker for incredible down the line speed. This board is fast, loose, and projects over sections very well. It has a generous sweet spot over the front foot and very user friendly. I highly recommend this board for intermediate to pro level surfers for waves ranging 1-4’. The Wilko F13 is a favorite of mine for 2018 and if this board is not on your radar then it should be. Board DIMS: EPS 5’7” x 19 x 2 3/16 liters 24.8 PU 5’7” x 19 x 2 ¼ liters 25.5. My Height: 5’9” Weight: 160 lbs or 72.57 kg
I'm 1,85mts, 35 years old. Surfing since i was 17.
I usualy use 34 lts.
Following your advice, i have a CI 5'11'' rocket wide.
I'm about to order a new board to pair with it for a two board quiver. And replace a CI Rocket 9, 6'0".
I liked the wilko f13 model. Is it good for 3' to 6'/ 7' surf?
What size and volume do you suggest?
. Or should i go for other model?
It would be my 2 board quiver for all conditions. Head and 1/2 , DOH maximum.
Best regards
you said that you wouldnt reconmmend the 3dv for beginner or beginner/intermediate. how does the f13 compare
I´m looking a daily driver for those 2-4+ days and I´m undecided between the DHD Wilko F13 and JS MonstaBox???? PU board...
Currently I have one EPS board for smaller days 1-3ft waves, another one in PU for 3-6ft waves and I want exchange my current daily driver´s board.

The LFT construction on the Moonbeam is very durable compared to most EPS and PU boards.

Looks like the lower volume combined with Epoxy really made the board come alive under your feet.
Up there with the best I’ve seen you look on a board, if not the best. Your style looks super relaxed. Board looks like it goes exactly where you want it to with little effort.
Great review as always.
How does the Neo Glass performer compare to the Jack Freestone generation series in feel? I rode the new Medina fins and they felt good in comparison to the Freestone. A bit stiffer though. The Freestone fins are my favourite 3 foot and under fin in Futures.
1-3’ surf CI Rocket Wide or Neck Beard 2
2-6’ surf
Pyzel Phantom
Your WR is good for 2-7’ plus surf.
