0:25 One of the sickest waves Noel has shown on here 🤙🏽
Fantastic episode, Noel! I love riding my G Skate in waves ranging from 4-6+ feet. Even in punchy 2-3 foot waves, it's still a blast!
Agreed
Stoked to see Wind and Wave pop up on the Surf n Show! Noel - welcome to Corpus and shout out to Frank Chop, Nasty Nate and the Wind and Wave crew.
Epic to see Noel in Corpus. We’ve been watching his reviews for years. Shout out to the Bob Hall locals, visor king, bootie king, pirate king
Johnny those were the days when you worked there!!
Epic to see you surf different waves… trestles holds a special place in my heart on this channel but the new camera shots and barrels and more make it even more exciting
Trestles has never been featured on this channel
Thank you for this. I had a very similar experience. I have the g skate in spine tek. It is not a very good groveler, but when the waves pack a little more punch/shape it is super fun. I have ridden mostly mayhem fishes over the years and they seem to grovel a lot better with effortless speed in those flat sections, unless it is a super lightweight person it might be different.
Loved hearing Esmeralda by Ben Howard in the background when you were in the surf shop
Working on the final editing for our G Skate episode, such a sweet board!!
Love Puerto Rico 🤙 Good waves, food, vibes, and people
Looks very much like my 20 yr old magic board. 🤙🏻
Hey Noel! Great vid! I was wondering how the helium technology felt under foot in Machado’s boards compared to the XTR
I like the Helium tech… it’s light and pretty durable but the XTR10 offers more pop, projection and drive. It also pressure dents less
Thx
It would be super good to see a video of your favourite boards for the daily surfer (maybe funboards with a bit more Volume)
Hello Noel, Whats the difference between the PU and XTR in regards of how you feel the board? And do you have a personal opinión on XTR in general. Thank you for the great reviews, keep up this amazing work.
XTR is way more durable in terms of less pressure dents. It also flows a bit better… roughly 1L more compared to PU. I personally like the XTR10 with carbon lite layup.
are you enjoying living in Texas waves look fun🤙
🔥🔥🔥
Hey Noel if you were to puck the most user friendly shortboard for 0 to 3 foot what would that be ? I m working on my technic to surf top to bottom consistently and for that I need to maximise wave count and forgiveness for my next purchase. Any progress i do, tend to go back to rushing down the line too much few days laters.
From your reviews I bought a seaside pyzalien 2. It s rarely very clean so my seaside isn't often used and I feel the pyzalien 2 doesn't work well in average condition below 3 foot.
Thanks mate!
At the moment my first thoughts to your board request looks like the options below in PU/Poly.
Hybrid Board outline: RNF 96, Gremlin, Chilli BV2.
Small wave boards with performance outline: Rocket Wide Squash, Mini Ghost Squash, NB3, CI Sampler.
Hey Noel, Some boards this shape have pretty full rails the whole way through and dont really like being turned super hard on rail. Looks like the outline is pretty tight and nice that last third of the board. Is it easy to turn or is it resling a bull if you know what i mean? lol
This board turns easy…. The tail end is all business.
Which one do you prefer RNF96 or G-Skate? Thank you!
I prefer the 96… it’s faster, surfs better in smaller waves and you can charge the big surf too
@@surfnshowreviews7777 Thank you!
Super responsive fast and forgiving board. I have a customized 60 19.25 2.5 32.6L (I am 150 lbs) and I am very surprised for how it turns rail to rail and slides. Its different to a regular shortboard and it is just fun to ride . The narrow tail make it fun to turn. 2+1 set up is the way to go
Are you going to review the too fish ??
No sorry
Cool footage surfing larger surf!
GSkate looks kinda tight ....... unfortunately not for me
Do you still ride the cymatic and bushman flow
@foxgd9117 YES! Cymatic needs juice .......
Bushman is like cheating! Can't explain but it has a mind of it's own, can't pinpoint it's genius perhaps the flip in it's nose? Glassed in signature keel fins a must .......I literally sold ALL my Futures because of this.
Cymatic thruster K2.1's for optimum capacity
Where's your Corpus Christi novelty surf footage? 🤪
Viva Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Great review of the G Skate and various fin options! Magnum was charging some serious waves on that 5-1.
Here is a clip of how the Gudauskas fin sets work in small but decent surf ruclips.net/video/gkD0BcC0pK0/видео.html
table rock
Seems like a great board. But damn do I find it ugly looking lol.
