This was such a fun review.... testing two small wave board models at the same time. The Disco and the Disco Cheater by SharpEye surfboards are both very fast and fun in small waves.
These two models are a collaboration with Surftech on a new construction called Fusion E2. They have a stringless EPS foam core with an exclusive Carbon Fiber band for Surftech only. The Carbon on the deck and the bottom of the board act as the spine and strength of the board and that is not uncommon this day in age. What makes this Carbon on the deck unique is the 2mm gap that runs down the middle of the Carbon band that allows the EPS foam to work as a dampener to reduce vibration or chatter.
In this review I talk about the pros and cons of EPS and PU foam cores and how this board and construction felt under my feet.
Both the Disco and the Disco Cheater were a blast and performed very well in 2-4'+ surf but the Disco Cheater stole the show due to its versatility in 1-4' surf. The Disco Cheater is one of my favorites for 2017 for the 1-3' Groveler category.
I like how you observed and commented on your surfing this time.
Torrey B Stoked you commented on this... I will be doing more of this moving forward. Cheers
Hi Noel, I decided to acquire the Disco Cheater after have seen your review. I'm planning to use it in the BSR Ranch, where is my current surf spot, I don't know if you remember me, is the Venezuelan guy that met you at BSR, send my greeting to El Chamo Magnun. :) See you in the water and keep surfing buddy!!!
Great review Noel. Really excited of what your coming up with this year. Happy New Year man!
Felix Lux Yewwww!! So stoked cheers to 2018.
I have noticed that you have a good board to wave ratio and the end result is good flow in your surfing at the end of your review
Miguel Marquina Cheers... flow is very important to me. Connecting with a board for speed is one thing but getting speed and flow together is what I am looking for...
Awesome stuff as always!
Cheater fits your style. Nice snaps
IzandEva Inmyheart Sick little board!! Cheers
You should try the disco inferno felipe rode it at kelly's wave pool
Matt Levy Sounds EIPC... Marcio Is such a good shaper. I just ordered something brand new that’s coming out for 2018 from SharpEye Surfboards!!! Stay tuned...
You gotta eyeball the DHD 3DV and the JS Air 17X. Your reviews have put the Sampler and monsta box in my quiver. The Driver is looking to be good contender to fill my rack.
bodhi tree So stoked you like our show. The Sampler and Monsta Box are epic and I am glad to hear they are going good for you!!! The Driver is mental and you will love that one too!!! Cheers
Great review👍
Tim Osborne Cheers!!!
Great review
I love your videos. I was hoping for some help choosing a board. I am 5’9 160-165lbs. I currently ride the 5’6 30 L cymatic which I love. I want to get a board that goes more vertical and can help me progress more compared to the cymatic. I have never ridden anything less than 30L but I think I could. I am considering the disco inferno, the shadow, or the sci fi2.0. I surf in Hawaii, head to a little overhead. Which model and size would you recommend? Thanks 🤙🏽
How about 29L and get a Shadow or check out the Weirdo Ripper by CI
Hey
Noal.
Ther is disc"o second hand for my size . Can you tell how the disco comper to baby buggy lost ?can the disco can handel 4-5 ft ?
Tnx alot
X -MAN X MAN They are pretty similar. I liked the Baby Buggy better
@@surfnshowreviews7777 tnx champ
Hi Noel, how would you compare the disco cheater to the Uber xl? Many thanks
The Disco Cheater has a wider nose making it more of a hybrid design. The wider nose offers better paddling and more stability under your front foot. The Wide point might be bit forward on the DC which enhances carving. The UD XL has a performance board outline and it will offer sharper/tighter turns in the pocket compared to the DC. In my opinion the DC to s silky smooth with better flow and faster compared to the UD XL. The UD Xl draws more performance lines in the pocket.
Thanks! Great insight. One last question. Would you recommend riding the disco cheater short? I’m between the 5’6 and 5’7.
@@CarlosRamos-zj2ut Yes.. ride it shorter. Roughly same volume as your Daily driver
Awesome! Thanks!
Hello again master .
If I am 145 pounds .

surf 24 volume fever (Pu)
Will the cheater 25.5 will be good for me or maybe too much foam ?
I ask because I remember the extra foam wasn’t so bad on your modern2 review , but the cheater and the modern2 are different boards ..
That board was super light at the shop .
Thanks hips
I asked u about the Uber driver CW in 24 volume and I am just before making a decision.
Thanks !🙏🏽
DJ Pipe Official It might be to much foam for you...
Nice Review Noel. Have you ever tried a pinched rail on an EPS on bigger waves? For me it helps to engage the rails. And a stronger lamination helps on the weight as well... have you ever tried?
Caio Husadel I have not tried that yet but I have talked to a few pros that say making the EPS a little heavier for bigger waves will take away the chatter or vibration. I have not heard about pinching the rails for more traction but it makes sense. Maybe I will do a review on something like this. I know Peter Mel rides EPS guns chasing giant waves..... one of my friends makes his boards.
Surf n Show Reviews Cool Noel! I was pro longboarder, and aways hate EPS. Since I tried to make it a little bit heavier and stronger I have just been riding only EPS. Now I'm also a shaper (check it up on instagram @HusadelSurfDesigns ), so I had this same feeling on the rails ounce the power of the wave increase... So I pinched the rails and reduce this feel of missing control on the rail. Thanks for the review man. I've been falling your reviews since "Surf Show n Tell"...
Caio Husadel So Sick... thanks for your loyalty and I will check out your Insta page!!!
Hey noel. I have a bunny chow and want a board for similar conditions that has more down the line speed and a slightly sharper rail. I'm a bigger guy at 6'3" and 185 lbs and push pretty hard in my turns, but I want to progress more and have some more release off the top. Would you suggest the disco over something like the sampler?

Hi Noel,
Great reviews, what would you prefer to ride in under 3 feet surf? the Modern 2 or the Disco Cheater? Also what fin combination would you recommend?
Ashley Kidd Disco Cheater with Perfomers NEO Glass Large fins.
Thanks for the prompt reply, What do you think the best surfboard you have ever ridden for under three feet surf? Also i would love it if you could review the Tomo Evo in Helium its probably the best board I've ridden. Keep up the good work..!

I have been riding a 5'6 pod mod 31 liters since your review awhile back. I was thinking of going 5'8 or 5'10 on the disco cheater. I'm 5'9 170lb plus. What do you recommend? Thanks.
maile thai Keep the liters roughly the same if your PM feels good
hey noel can i compare the disco with the pyzel phanton, are they meant for the same kind of waves ? thks... obs: i have the phanton
Yes... that’s a pretty good comparison. The Phantom paddles better, it’s faster, and easier to shred. The Disco offers more high performance in the pocket and it will pivot faster.
Or as,

Hi Noel,
After a few lesson class I'm moving from a Funboard to shortboards. Would you recommend Disco Cheater for this transition? I have 1.66cm and 56kg.
Thanks!
Rodrigo Viana Yes... Disco Cheater is perfect
Surf n Show Reviews thanks !
The suggestion I received was from a 5'11. What do you think ? I have 1.66cm and 56kg
Rodrigo Viana I’m thinking more like 6’0”. Are you catching waves easily? Are you doing turns and cutbacks on every wave. I need to know more about your skill level???
Surf n Show Reviews thanks!
Could you kinda make shaper competition aa

Hi Noel! can I use the disco cheater as an one quiver board? I am based in Greece so I ride smaller waves but I started to travel last year in Bali and I am going to go for a surf trip abroad once a year. What's the most appropriate size for me? I am 170 62kg very low intermidiate level
KOSTAS GOULAS The Disco Cheater is such a fun board... I would say it’s good for 1-4’ surf. I don’t think it can hold in 5-6’ surf
@@surfnshowreviews7777what size would u recommend anyway. Thank u for the reply Noel. You give great information
KOSTAS GOULAS I would say roughly 25-26 liters...
@@surfnshowreviews7777 many thanks! Take care Noel!!!
Hey Noel, would you rather the disco cheater or the Storms model for 1-5 ft waves but slightly steeper beach breaks? And Pu or Epoxeye e2 fusion ? Thanks (:
Storms EPS
@@surfnshowreviews7777 thanks a lot man 🤙🏻
What would be your thoughts on this model as a rounded / Rounded pin tail? I see they have the option on their website ?🤙🏻 storms model **
@@zakpatterson5274 That would give it more hold and tighten it up a bit.
@@surfnshowreviews7777 thanks bro you’re a legend 🙏🏻
Whwn your refering wave size is it hawaiian scale??
papiofisher No... So Cal size. I always talk wave face size
@@surfnshowreviews7777 knee to over head?
cool show. holler at me if you want a few tips to bring up production value 5-10%. yew!!!!
Thoughts on the FireWire almond butter?
kelton castillo Looks like a really fun and versatile board. I have not ridden one though. Cheers!
