Riddler REVO5 Mentawais Bonzer

P1130121 P1130120

6’2” x 20 1/4” x 2 7/8”

This board went beautifully at several breaks, Nipussies, Macaronis being the stand-out sessions. Just as fun back-hand as forehand. A definite performance oriented bonzer with a unique fin set up that defies the norms but relates to all the hydrodynamic theories. It’s the sort of board that will really surprise you… very at home getting into the pocket (and staying there) but equally loose off the bottom and top… best way to sum this board up is that it felt very free.

The Riddler rides again…

This ones off to Indo with me, so the good news is the original Riddler is up for sale… If interested give me a shout.

This one is exactly the same (which says it all really) except for a slightly thicker rail for the slightly heavier surfer (13 1/2 stone)… ME! It’s still the barrel focussed shortboard it was intended to be, together with a REVO5 bonzer fin set up and a gullwing McCoy rear fin. Pics of it in action at HTs (hopefully) coming from a boat in the Mentawais soon.
