The Fever in the words of Patrick Gudauskas:
*****
"Overview: The Fever was born from a desire for an all-around performance board based on elements I love, Speed, Drive, and Flair. My Goal in designing this board with Mike Andrews and Channel Islands was to create a surfboard that I could surf in almost any conditions and have a hell of a good time on it. I wanted a more accessible Tour Performance board that anyone who jumped onto it would instantly feel the speed and zest for creativity.
Conditions: I like to surf my Fever in anything from 2-3 foot softer California style beach break and point break waves, to 6ft+ World Tour style waves, like Snapper, J Bay, Bells, Lowers, Haleiwa, and Backdoor. I prefer to ride it just above my groveler/small wave board, and all the way until I need a step-up or round tail surfboard. "

Got this board as well 2 months ago, i must say from the very surf I loved it ! But I found that it needs a 2 foot + and shape to really light up unless you have a pretty good level that enable you to really get speed off small waves, anything above it s so good and turn on a dime - I m just waiting for my Cab Sav to complete my little quiver !
Oh also I was surprised that the sweet spot seems quite large compared to my ex LostV3 where i always struggled a bit to find it
Mathieu, êtes-vous français?
+Mathieu Revel tu fais du surf à Biarritz?
Fun mini-barrel at 4:18. Great surfing!
YEEEWWWW, thanks for watching!
Be good if you answer questions - your reviews are good
Best board ever, mine goes mental !
You got stock or custom
Hey Craig, do you like the Fever or the Monstabox better? And how would you compare the two?
Cheers fellas
Thanks for watching Jon!
Dope POV
Craig, I have a Ultra Joe Spinetek & NB2 Spinetek - looking for a step up Happy or Fever in Spinetek? Live in Cronulla.
Love the reviews! Did you like the fever or og flyer better?
I prefer the fever. The OG Flyer is a Great Board but I find it to be very slow. The fever is much faster and can handle the same wave range if ridden correctly.
Board is 29.4 liter but what do you weigh?
im tad confused... are there 2 different guys doing this same show... they look tad alike and talk tad alike but they're different
I think that’s the channel, “Bennys board room”.
Love your reviews, was wondering how tall and how much you weigh?
What are your thoughts on PU vs EPS vs FlexBar for this board? I like the durability & float of eps but don’t want to sacrifice performance.
I would for sure go EPS. More flex, durability, and buoyancy. I would say eps is higher performance.
I am 5'7 and 130lbs, and an intermediate surfer. Do you think the 5'8 fever would work for me?
Nice review!! What's your weight Craig???
Yeah Craig, what is your weight? I got a Fever and I don't like it cause I think it's too much volume for me (I'm 175-180lbs and I got a 6'0" with Flex-bar). Thanks
hi Craig... have you ever used Jordy Smith fins? They would be a more maneuverable alternative to AM Large when used at Fever.
That’s the setup I ride. I prefer it over the AM fins because of the larger base and thinner tip. Gives more Drive and a little more control and release.
Craig did you like the fever better than the black and white? BW seems to be faster down the line on paper from the lower entry rocker.
Personally I like the fever more. The fever is very fast even with more rocker because it has single concave throughout. It’s a little bit harder to ride than the b&w though. Also it can’t handle flat spots as well as the b&w. Any flat spots the fever loses its spark.
where did you get that spray
do u think this is a good board for indo
I think it would be great for the smaller flatter waves in indo. However a higher performance board would be preferred in indo because the waves are so perfect.
Js.. bb2? Please
how would this board compare to the og flyer
The OG is wider and thicker. I love my OG but it is a little big. 19 1/2 wide 2 1/2 thick. Just pulled the dims off of mine, going to shape one myself, just slightly smaller in width and thickness
"I went and ordered another one"? Craig, are you made of money bro? Just get the box fixed for $50!
This guy can barely surf.
Better than 95% of us
Yeah he sucks bro
This guy cannot surf
