Lost Puddle Jumper RP Surfboard Review 41 3

Reviews 8 years ago 22,963 views

We review the Lost Puddle Jumper round pin surfboard - essentially the same board as the Puddle Jumper which proved to be a smash hit this year but with a round tail. Why bother, you might ask? The idea is to give the board more top-end performance in faster, punchier waves. So many people love this board and want to surf it in everything, the addition of the round tail with a little more rocker makes this possible.

How does this compare to the EZ up? this is slightly more suited to small waves and performance?

Circumvent the finance department! Classic! Haha!!!

Hey Boardshop,

New Zealand waves are slightly fatter but can get big faces as well. Would you say that the RP version as opposed to original PJ is more versatile?

Hey I need help figuring out which size to get! I’m 5’5” and 140lbs. I’ve been surfing the lost been bag at 5’2” and 32lt. I’m wanting this to use it as a step up in performance and use it in bigger waves than my bean bag but still be able to throw it around in smaller stuff what size should I get??

Hi, I'm unsure of what stock size Puddle Jumper RP to buy, I'm 185cm tall and weigh 80kg (176lbs). Are you able to advise?

Thank you

I am beating myself up trying to choose between the two.

Hi,

In terms of waves you can ride with this board, what is the biggest surf you would recommend riding on this board?
Also I have the OG Puddle Jumper in a carbon wrap, whihc I absolutely love. Can these two boards coexist in a quiver? Or would the RP replace the OG?

Thanks,
Anton

I'm comfortable riding double overhead. Beyond that, I'm running for the hills Lol. So if it can get me in that range, then that's great :)
Thanks for getting back to me, Anton

Hi Anton, as big as you feel comfortable really. Not hard and fast rule, but it is a bit more slimmed out with sharper rails than the OG. Will handle well overhead for sure. easily exists in a quiver with an OG. Cheers

PJ RP or the stretch RV? which is more versatile?

How would you recommend people size I'm 6'3" 165 lbs and normally ride between 29 and 32 liters. I'm intermediate level and live in South Florida the waves are often messy and small but do get head high and up with the storms the blow thruough.
I was looking at a Lost Quiver killer how do these boards compare?

+Ripper Hi, not really as straight forward as that. The Puddle Jumper performs better in smaller surf, and the RP has a better top end wave range. The RP could be seen as a one board quiver if you normally surf flatter face waves, regardless of the size. Hope this helps.
