    From JS
    Easy Rider dimensions have been created with the goal of making our most popular models even more approachable. After a year of JS riding more different boards than ever before alongside Occy and Parko, with an R&D process riddled with injuries, lower fitness levels & work obligations, JS designed our EasyRider specs for easy paddling coupled with high performance surfing. Foam is hidden in all the right places for extra floatation, but with lowered rails that can still be buried at high speed.
    The all new Monsta, ready for anything in 2023 and beyond. To be in line with the Traktor Team’s most recent favourite boards, we’ve made some slight adjustments to the foil along with fractionally deeper concaves to provide extra lift and quicker transitions.
    The rocker is still the same magic curve as our Monsta 20, featuring a generous sweet spot which easily generates speed, allows you to control big turns, and balances release out of the lip. The nose has just enough flip in the last few inches to prevent catching in critical parts of the wave, while the tail rocker remains to fit into the waves our Monsta is designed to thrive in - almost any conditions from chest high to double overhead.
    Single concave under front foot runs into a double concave through the fins to give you plenty of spark, yet maintain control in powerful surf, while a clean outline flows into a slight hip that allows for responsive direction changes. Overall, the Monsta prompts intuitive & fast surfing. It’s our best flagship shortboard yet, and now, it’s ready for the rest of the world to enjoy anywhere, anytime. The best always find a way to get better.

    @TH-nc1gj 8 місяців тому +2

    Hey mate , great reviews as always,, just a question with board thickness and barrels. At what thickness do you feel is getting too thick to be a good board in the tube…. If that makes sense? So at 2 3/4 are you gonna start catching rail etc ?

    • @WoolyTV
      @WoolyTV  8 місяців тому +2

      Yeah I think so. Really depends on the rail shape this has a good down rail so that gives good hold even if the board is thick along the stringer.
      If you want a really rolled deck with pinched rails, have a look at the Schooner too.

    • @jt3366
      @jt3366 7 місяців тому +1

      I had a stock CI Happy with 2-7/16 thickness that I loved. After I broke it I ordered a custom, same everything as stock except 2-9/16” thickness. I requested to have the extra thickness in the middle but to have the rails and tail thinned down similar to what they would be on the stock board with 2-7/16” thickness. The rails and tail didn’t come out nearly as thin as they were on my first board and it’s definitely not as good for me (other than it paddles a little better). I find it harder to lean and push hard on bottom turns when I have a lot of speed and in general doesn’t change direction quite as easily. Now I am watching reviews looking for boards that carry quite a bit of foam for paddling but that have thin rails and tails. Probably going to buy a schooner.

    • @WoolyTV
      @WoolyTV  7 місяців тому +1

      @@jt3366 I’m of the opinion it’s better just to stick with the stock DIMs as the shapers have worked out all the files so each length is scaled up. The Schooner has the most pinched rails of the JS line but just be aware that model works best in head high good quality waves (and up).

    Hi Wooly, which hpsb board do you find the most forgiving out of the Shadow, phantom or Monsta 10 ?

    • @WoolyTV

    • @WoolyTV

      This one is a performance board, the Xero range is flatter than the Monsta rocker. Xeros will work better in smaller flatter waves and the Monstas will work better in good quality waves.
