Got a Astro Pop custom from pyzeluk and I love it fast drivey loose perfect for English waves I'm a big chap about 110+ kg 49yr old surfing for 44 years . Ordered a 7-2 X 22 1/2 X 3 1/8 @ 56:69 litre been riding as a quad at the mo going to try other fin set ups out 2 I've rode it in 2ft mush clean 3+ and 4-5+ chunky light onshore and it worked real good in everything get one u won't regret it I'm glad I did goes vert n carves to 👌💪🤙🤙🏄🏄🏄
fun review! why do some shapers make the wing after the finbox vs before the fin box how does that effect the fin to wing interaction? is the behind the fin box cavitat less?
It just depends on how the shaper wants the wing to interact with the fin. Most times they'll have the fin drive water to the wing which will add some bite. You'll sometimes see it the other way but that would more be seen in "classic" or "retro" designs.
We would steer you towards just riding it as a quad, but you definitely could, that just wouldn't be our first pick for setup. That's not to say a Twin+ trailer wouldn't give a fun, skatey & loose feeling on some days. Maybe just try it as a quad to get a standard for comparison and if you have a set of twins throw them in to see how it feels too, nothing wrong with some experimenting
Cheers for the quick reply.. it's just that I would like to surf an high performance twin and I'm about to order an set of twinnies EN Futures twins... But perhaps will try it with an baby trail fin..
@@stephenwouw8624 The EN Futures Twin is a large twin, that could work! It definitely will be fun and worth the shot, the Astro Pop is super fast which will be fun with the twin set up. Let us know how it goes!
The Heckler is pretty fun, the venturi bottom makes it fast. But the Astro Pop was ripping, so fast and a ton of pop. It also holds a lot of the volume under your chest so it paddles into waves well
The Astro Pop is designed to give you some extra spark and easy paddle in weaker, slower waves, while still keeping a performance edge and super fun to ride in good surf. The Astro Pop can generate a ton of speed. The Cali Twin is fast too, but it is a little more of a skatey feel, though it still has some precision in tight spots.

I need extra money 😭.this board so beautiful
What size is that one you're holding?
What about the rail? Medium ?
Trip, What size Astro Pop would you ride.??
I like a board the same hight as me always remember shape and volume are more important than length

Would this go ok as a 6'6" for someone around 88kg and lower end of the intermediate scale?
did you end up getting the board? if so how’d u go
@@gauratertelyte4965 Yep, got the board, same dims as above. Goes really well, really pleased with it 🤙
Is the quad finbox position suitable for an twin fin setup?

Hi Real... How does the Astropop compare with The Heckler Rusty?
The Heckler is pretty fun, the venturi bottom makes it fast. But the Astro Pop was ripping, so fast and a ton of pop. It also holds a lot of the volume under your chest so it paddles into waves well
How does it compare to the Cali Twin?

The Astro Pop can generate a ton of speed. The Cali Twin is fast too, but it is a little more of a skatey feel, though it still has some precision in tight spots.
How does this compare to the Gremlin?
I'd want that shape in a 6'2".. Big boy board
We've got 2, One each in FCS2 and Futures www.realwatersports.com/collections/pyzel-astro-pop
I have it in a 6'4" I love it
@@bradhull1995 thats what I want. Its more intermediate sieze?
I agree with John not a good airbrush...
My friend Ben Young just bought this board. I would be excited to hear his feedback on the shape, but he sucks at surfing.... and he's gay.
what a fake laugh , making pyzel uncomfortable 😂
I also dislike that spray
The orange isn't for everyone, but the board still rips! We had one with black rails but it was tough to see with the background
