The Shadow fills the gap between the Ghost and Phantom for the surfer looking for precise surfing in more critical sections. We got great waves for this review ranging from 2-5’, and the Shadow did not disappoint. I noticed the similarities between the Shadow and Phantom, like great down-the-line-speed and good flow between turns. I got two boards with the exact same dimensions for this review. One board was PU/PE with Futures fin boxes and the other board is EPS/Epoxy with FCSII fin boxes. Both board constructions felt good underfoot, and each of them had their strengths and weaknesses in different conditions. The Shadow is solid in my book, and I recommend it for intermediate/pro-level surfers for waves ranging from 3-8’. Board Dimensions 5’7” x 18.75 x 2.31 Liters 25.5 My Height: 5’9” Weight: 160 lbs or 72.57 kg
Thank you in advance for being awesome. You've helped me out with my last 2 board purchases and I couldn't be more stoked
PS - You should review the Patterson IF-15....would be an interesting one because italo rides his over volume compared to most pros but absolutely tears into waves on that thing. He does like 27 liters at 150lb.
Thanks again for answering all my questions. You're seriously surf-legend status in my book brother man.
Got a trip to indo coming up and considering adding the ghost to the quiver.

Thanks for the review and the education you have given us. Looking to add to my “Surf n Show Quiver” again and seeing you live in a great point break area what board would you say is a great point break board for someone your age n dims but just intermediate level? Already have a fever, cymatic and Wilko f13 and love em all. Looking for something to paddle easy & carry speed as my points are quite fat waves.
Cheers mate
Do you already tried the JW large sides w/ jw medium centre in other boards? I'm looking a fins similar to my favorite MF large neocarbon but with a little more release and pivot... What you think about the mix of JW fins? It's a good solution? Thanks.
Love these reviews.
You are ripping as usual!
Would you choose the Lost Driver or Pyzel Shadow in fast punchy waves?
cheers mate!
