You can get a short foamy and shred small waves and do performance surfing on them. This is due how much volume they can carry. I would choose a foamy over a groveler any day, plus they are way cheaper than regular PU boards.

They are also not fragile like a PU board.

Jasper van Loo
Jasper van Loo - 8 years ago
+Sam Grabia to be honest, you shouldn't surf the beater when you are new to surfing, they are so wiggly sinds that float so much and are so short

Hi Guys, Couple of questions on the subject of softies: I was given an ex-rental 8ft board with a bit of a bite taken off the back. Think its too big to try and fill and re-seal, so perhaps it would be better to square off the end and then seal, but does it matter if it comes right to the end of the middle fin? Also the fins seem pretty wobbly in their fixings .. does this matter and if so any way to make them more steady?

Hi Benny,  thanks very much for the review.  However I know very little about boards and am looking for one for my son, and he likes this board.  I came to this video expecting a review of this board as against other softie options.  However I don't believe you reviewed this board in the video, but more was a general comment about softies in general ?   Thanks again.

Hi Robert, I'm sorry if you didn't find the review helpful. As you say, it is more of a general review of soft boards because, in my experience, these are not technical craft but are geared for fun and learning. For your son, I recommend simply finding a soft board that he A) likes the shape & look of and B) is not too large or small.

I hope this helps you.

All the best,
Benny

Hello! First off I just want to say I love the videos. I recently found your channel and have been going through your videos like crazy.  Anyway I was wondering if I could get some advice; I'm 6'2 and about 170 pounds and was looking to pick up a new FireWire Board. I've had a really rough time decided on a board and also having trouble figuring out a size that would work for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Hi Oopiknarf, thank you for watching and for your kind feedback - much appreciated!

Regarding sizing, I'll add a link in the description to an article entitled 'Know Your Volume, Catch More Waves.'  This should help guide you towards a board that is the right size for you.  Please leave a comment on that page if it was helpful to you!

All the best,
Benny

Hi Frank, for a foam hybrid, the Softech TC Pro is pretty cool. Or the El Nino Twinino.

I hope this helps you!
