REAL Workhorse Craig Dietsch rides and reviews the ...Lost Smooth Operator in some fun surf and different fin configurations. Get your Smooth Operator at: www.realwaters...
Really appreciate the fin changes and showing exactly which set ups. A great review but a little more detail on how it went on each set up would take this to the next level. Cheers.
The Crowd Killer Round a little smaller like that can be surfed way more aggressively, that would actually work pretty well! Tell your "friend" to hit us up if he needs help dialing that in
Yeah great to see it in the water! Can you show how the crowd killer round does? I’m choosing between crowd killer round, smooth operator or El Patron.. so difficult!
Tim, we can definitely help with that. Trip just said if you want to call the shop and ask for him he can help you get that dialed (252) 987-6000. Or if you want to just shoot us an email to REALpro@realwatersports.com we can help you out no problem. -Talk soon, Brett
That’s my set on my Mid length crisis and it works great. I ride a few times with a single fin from Machado and it was loose but great too but I prefer 2 plus one.
I really liked them both. The split keel had more hold where the twin was looser. The split keel you could surf in more range, while the twin was fun in small waves.-Craig
@@SteveGuluk That board was 6'9" that Craig used, and he said he personally would've sized down a little bit to get a little more performance out of it. But he also said if you went with 7'0" it would be a really good mid-length board for your quiver
This is way better than the reviews where you guys just talk about the boards. It's way better to see how they look on a wave.
Board + fin review = Success 🥇👏👏👏👏🏄 Will order this instead of the CI Mid.
Did you end up getting the ci? What do you think?
More on ocean reviews! You can really tell how the board is working.
The twin fin looked cool once you started bouncing it. The quad snapped well and that single is gonna be incredible in big slopes or hollow stuff

Thanks for the feedback, we will try to keep digging further
Great new format!
That wave looks super fun and super frustrating at the same time lol
Board looked noticeably faster and looser after he switched to the power twin fins.
great surfing and great review thanks
Would it be too much overlap to get a 6’10 crowd killer round and a 7’2 smooth operator?
Asking for a friend.

@@waikikiwilly13 Anytime! Have fun out there sounds like a sick quiver you're putting together

REAL Watersports that sounds great Brett! Thanks for getting back to me. I’ll contact you guys soon. Cheers Tim
where can i get one of those fin removers ? :)
Fins Out or Fin Puller
I have one of each
Fin Puller is great but Fins Out is better for keel type fins
Would this board be good ridden as a two plus one fin set up
That’s my set on my Mid length crisis and it works great. I ride a few times with a single fin from Machado and it was loose but great too but I prefer 2 plus one.
is this SF The Beach ?
Looks like this board needs better footwork. You can't just surf it like a shortboard to get the most out of it.
any idea how it would compare to my 9.2" longboard? It catches everything but is a bit of a pig to paddle out
That's tough without seeing your board, but this would be a good mid-length complement to most longboards.
Did you like it better as a twin or split keel?
I really liked them both. The split keel had more hold where the twin was looser. The split keel you could surf in more range, while the twin was fun in small waves.-Craig
Hi what is your height and weight
Craig is around 5'9" and 165Lbs
@@REALWatersports That's my current size also... Would the 7' model be too long for that height and weight?

How old is Craig? If you don't mind me asking, thanks
@@jnoonanuk Craig is in his Mid-20's
So sad that Matt B is so embarrassed by this board that he made a new lam so no one would know it was a Lost surfboard
Yea, the giant "...Lost" written in the middle will be a super discrete way to hide the brand
