@@hoseaesp6309 hi mate, I haven’t personally surfed a white tiger, However for our waves on the Sunshine Coast the chado has been more suited then what I have been told the white tiger is.
Bowie, I feel I am in between sizes. Torn between 5'8 34L and 5'10L. I am 6'0 amd 89KG. Been riding smaller boards like GSkate at 5'10 34.5L. I want the board to paddle as least good as that. Wish they had a 5'9 in the range.
@@terenceingram7786 hey mate I would honestly say go the 5’8 34L if you are happy with the 34.5L in your g skate, Should feel the same with that volume, The only thing you will lose is a little bit of paddle speed been abit shorter, But the in the pocket response will be way better, If you go up to the 5’10 would just make it a wave catching machine and you would just need to push it harder on your back foot seeing you are going up abit in volume, Both epic options, Thanks
@@johnnyhadji7841 thanks mate I would be saying the 5’2 going of weight and size, However it also depends on your ability and what volume you are already riding, Thanks
@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Do you no the Machado Cado 5'6 is 2 9/16 thick and the 5'8 is 2 1/2 thick? So the 5'8 is actually thinner then the 5'6, I felt both sizes under arm and the 5'8 feels a little thinner then the 5'6 cado which I like. Has anyone noticed this?
Are you going to review the JS Flame fish in the new HYFI 3.0 construction? Interested to see the comparison between it and the Machadocado. Thanks for the reviews.
@@robertbrow6289 hey Robert, I haven’t got one to try at this stage! But if I do I will definitely be putting up a review! I’m going to say that this board is faster than the flame fish on softer waves, However that new HYFI tech is insane so could be a game changer for that board..
@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 I know you have surfed the flaming pony, have you also tried the flame fish? If so which do you prefer out of the 3? and why? Also is there really any difference between the flame fish and flaming pony, or is it just the same board re-branded?
@@kenkohncke7929 so flaming pony wider outline and closer to the cado, The flame fish probably closer the the old js nitro, But the new HYFI 3.0 could be game changing in that new tech
@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Saw the Cado at Alex BB yesterday when I was ordering my 6'8" Boss-Up. It looks sick, looks to have more tail lift than my old Flaming Pony and my Seaside. Definitely more than my old Chum Lee and Twice Baked. I like that think it should turn well even when the waves have a bit of push.
@@trestlesrocks hi mate I’m 5’11 and 85kg I was loving the 5’6 as I normally ride around 32L I would recommend with your height and weight they 5’8, But that also depends on how you want it to surf, Also the 5’8 will be a lot easy paddle then the 5’6, Cheers

@@NetherlandsBusiness that’s a tough one! I do still like the Baron flyer, However I would say this board is more forgiving for most surfers I feel, The Baron flyer will suit more of a shortboard surfer!
@@10SNE1 yer I would say 5’4 with your weight, As I’m riding the 5’6 and it floats no problems at all but still easy to ride, But depends on what volume you are normally riding
Damn can’t decide between this and the white tiger, have you the pyzel white tiger?

How does this compare to the Seaside? Im looking for my first shorter board and debating this or the Seaside
@@eamonshields2754 sea side is more flow and down the line,
The cardo will give you more in the pocket style surfing
@@bowiepollardsurfboardrevie6757 Thanks!
Hey Bowie, have you tried the JS Flame fish? Or the older Flaming Pony? Interested to know how they compare to the Machadocado?
@@kenkohncke7929 I would be saying more like the flaming pony,
With a deeper double concave and thinner in the tail!
