Wedge Surfboards Midlength Twin Review - The Regular Guy S04E01

- We start Season 4, which features 6 Midlengths, with a board from one of the oldest brands in South Africa and a name synonymous with the South Coast, Wedge Surfboards. Making boards from the factory, situated on a small farm, deep in the sugarcane fields near Port Shepstone, since the early 70’s, it seemed appropriate to start with Wedge. As we started the shoot on the South Coast.
Winter is normally the time for incredible right point breaks on the coast, but unseasonal rain and the sardine run coming early, meant they closed the beaches and we had to head south to the small hamlet of Port Alfred on the South Coast. We scored reeling right handers over the days we had in PA.
The Wedge was a unique Twin Midlength, that surfed like it was made to charge big reeling waves. I fell in love with this very unique board, while Dylan Reddering, my special guest, struggled with the volume, but was still able to have some fun on this board. Proving that you should not be scared of volume on a midlength surfboard.

Trippy stick - those boys know what they doing for sure!
Even after a few years, I seem to keep coming back to your reviews. This is the best I have seen you surf by far. Can't wait to get my first Wedge from Gary and Justin!
Thanks man. Some fresh content coming soon.
A Wedge was the best board I ever owned. The boys made me replica big wave Rob Machado copper board back in the 90’s. Loved the fins
Custom delux

Oh So lekker :)
I 100% agree with Expat Wanderers
I think you surf super well on longer higher volume boards personally
Love your board reviews🤙
