Is This 5’6 Asym Twin the best board I have ever Surfed in a Wave Pool? Urbansurf Advanced Turns
I recently picked up the Asymmetrical Fish from a shaper on the Gold coast, I have always loved the idea of a twin quad fish and have really enjoyed feeling the new feelings.
Going to make a full review and break down the asymmetrical theory, anyone got suggestions or questions they would like to see answered in the video coming up?
Session at urban was super fun, felt a bit like I played it safe looking back at the footage but its so expensive you really don’t want to waist waves haha. First advanced turns session in a while, definitely more carves and floaters for me than progressive turns, witch felt really good for practicing snaps. Idk I don’t surf it enough to really give a good break down but it’s definitely bigger, hollower and faster than progressive turns, was good fun!

Is This The Longest Wave In Australia?
Переглядів 2,4 тис.21 день тому
On our last trip to Noosa we went on an adventure to a crazy spot called double island point, swell was small but it was beutiful and the rides were long. Long boards on a crazy long sand bottom right hand point break in warm crystal clear waters are a recipe for a fun day. 🤔 What's your favorite surf spot?

    • @AddisonRowland
      @AddisonRowland 27 днів тому

      Unfortunately in my opinion with Flynns if you aren’t taking off on the peak or a boil you most of the time end up taking off on a closing section which is really difficult. Id say go when its small, stand on the shallow part of the reef so you know where it is when the set comes and paddle into it watching the wave and if u miss it see where it broke and be there for the next one. Check out my latest reel Its me surfing a tiny wave there and its all about positioning. Also can you edit ure comment to get rid of the name f****s?

    Hey Mate .. what's your take on Firewires Helium construction vs. your conventional PU boards. Any pros and cons after all?

    • @AddisonRowland
      @AddisonRowland Місяць тому

      Hey, i like it quite a bit, pros: Light, no deck compressions, lively feel due to lightness and flex Cons: can get water logged quicker if dinged so definitely get it repaired as soon as possible if u damage it, and it yellows in the sun. It’s really cool to feel something different and i think it definitely suits small waves as it feels like u can pack a bunch of volume but doesn’t feel heavy

    • @kaidame3499
      @kaidame3499 Місяць тому

      So basically, you will still grab a PU board if the swell ramps up and you don't care about the fragile nature of this tried-and-tested technology. Have you tried a Firewire shape with more rail length in some more serious conditions?

    • @AddisonRowland
      @AddisonRowland Місяць тому

      Theres an idea that helium boards don’t do well in windy/choppy conditions, I guess If go for a PU if it was choppy. I have a 7’0 Sunday that I have ridden in 3-4+ surf but I guess it depends on what you consider serious? I haven’t really been out in seriously serious conditions yet id say 🤣

    • @kaidame3499
      @kaidame3499 Місяць тому

      @AddisonRowland Well, I heard that saying but can't confirm whether it's true or just talk. It might be an odd question, but is your 4-foot wave measurement the wave's face or from the back? I do take out a simple Torq Midlength in more challenging conditions because I don't have to worry about the board getting hit by someone else in the lineup, and I feel they just seem to come alive when the waves have some power. They are perhaps the mother of all epoxy boards, stiff and maybe somewhat heavy. No complaints. I would grab it, actually, anytime. The moment I feel a little bit skippy on more powerful waves is when I'm out on a to smal to much of a groovler board. Think shape might be more important than the actual build 🤷‍♂️

    • @AddisonRowland
      @AddisonRowland Місяць тому

      I measure from the back, i think its kind of silly but it what I’m used to so I’m sticking with it for now, so 3-4+ is probably 6-8ft face. And yeah I agree the shape is definitely a bigger factor than the construction

    • @AddisonRowland
      @AddisonRowland Місяць тому

      I prefer the seaside, the plasmic I had was 40L very wide and had a diamond tail, very skatey hard to tip over on rail, I think if I sized the plasmic down and had it with a swallow I might have kept it. But I didn’t like how it felt. I also think if you want to ride a fish and ure not already an advanced surfer a quad fish is going to be more user friendly and give you more control and confidence to push turns than a twin. Thats an broad opinion that leaves out alot of nuance, but in general i think thats true.

  • @MindSurf248
    @MindSurf248 Місяць тому

    I'm pretty similar standard to OP. Thought i'd add a few thoughts for anyone considering the board. Been on my mates a few times in Morocco this last week. 5'9 with Twin Keels. I'm 5'9 and approx155lbs (11 1/2 st). It went great in the punchy 3ft beach breaks. So quick, so stable on my backside and easy to get around sections. I wasn't really feeling it on the head high/OH Point breaks though. Too Skatey, too flat, and that construction really sits you on top of the water, which sucks if you hit a step or wind chop. I mainly surfed my 6'8 Seaside and Beyond (as a quad), which went far better on 5ft+ days at Anchors and Boilers. If I was getting one, it would definitely be for punchy but not barrelling beach breaks (e.g. Anza) or small days on mellower reefs. Which makes sense given the reef it was designed to surf.

    Great review. I agree that I was a bit oversold when it comes to the SS ability to grovel in small weak waves. Those of us on the Atlantic coast would do well to take “small wave” board advice from California shapers with a pinch of salt. IMO the only true Uber groveler is a mini Simmons.

      @@AddisonRowland 1200 will get you a custom from a local crew like oke or trigger. Rob didn't personally shape every seaside, he designed the first one and they all get machine shaped and vacuum form laminated in China/thailand. I personally think new boards sub 7'0 should cap out at 1000 unless they have crazy custom sprays or lam tints or full hand shapes but mass produced boards like FireWire should be cheaper. About $250-350 of materials go into a sub 7'0 board for me to make and I'm not buying in massive bulk quantities I buy locally made foam blanks from Rosebud and resin that's made in dandenong. Not hating on the seaside at all one of my best mates surfs one and loves it and its definitely cool being able to surf the same board as your favorite pro! Nothing wrong with compressions on a surfboard, pu is vastly superior to eps in my opinion because it doesn't get waterlogged and is much nicer to shape and glass and way easier ding repairs

    Awesome review, thank you! I too am an intermediate surfer, maybe "upper intermediate" , but I'm not so good at the late, huck-in-under-the-lip take-off on hollow waves. I am looking for a board to help me get into hollow waves early and get pitted. I'm sold on the Townsend, just not sure if I should go 6'6" or 6'8"? I'm 5'10" 155 pounds, and I only surf eave faces up to about 8-10 feet and even that is not common. Its more for the 6-8 foot face days at my local hollow beachie where I need that extra paddle power. Im thinking 6'6" because I still want to do turns and be able to duck dive, but I'm also curious about a 6'8.

      Id say if your typical surf is over head hollow beachies go the 6’6, if ure looking for a step up for good hollow waves tho you might want a little more rocker than the Townsend has, hard to say without knowing your board history and what you like but either way its a great board!

    First 2 sessions on the sunday I've loved. I've only surfed in in shit conditions tho. I'm getting a one board quiver vibes from it so far. If it can pass the grovel test and perform in big waves i might start selling off some of my boards.

    • @AddisonRowland
      @AddisonRowland 2 місяці тому

      Yeah definitely could be a one board quiver for sure! In my opinion haha
