Is this the most important surfboard for your quiver?

- High performance surfboards are a category that many of us every day surfers struggle with. They're tighter, 'knifey' and require good waves to really come alive.
But they allow for potentially the highest level of surfing that many of us will get to demonstrate.
It's something I've always wrestled with. For too long I've relied on the effortlessness of a shorter, squashed board but then been limited substantially once the waves get good. This video is a first step toward exploring the realm of HPSBs a little more :)

I see guys out with their HP boards daily in SoCal. They struggle to even pop up because the waves are too small, or flat mush, or whatever. I'm pissing them off on my midlength and fish board. They think I'm a kook, but I'm surfing while they speed bump it. HP is good for waves that deserve it.
The monsta looked like the most fun but the schooner is smooth and definitely the better travel board for top-bottom proper waves. Gotta love that round pin. Ripping yo
It's wild how much better you looked on the schooner compared to the other boards. Weirdly i was rooting for the schooner seeing your first couple of waves on it! Great choice. I wanna buy one!
Sick vid! Was looking at the schooner but ended up on the raging bull coz it's a bit more forgiving for my skill and variety of waves
Been looking into the schooner and I think I need it in my quiver
Great vid, super helpful, i'm JS guy through and through Lov'd section at end with few locals cruz'n right below ya...
Love your vids Kale!
Love your vids man <3 Going to Marocco the last 3 sep. weeks as I got holidays in that time. I hope Anchor Point will be good at the time for my level of skill :D
It’s difficult being a bigger guy that rides shorter boards! The typical HPSB is usually at lower volume limit, to get anything around around the volume range you’ve got so much rail in the water. A 6’2 on a recent trip felt so long, guess it’s a mental thing!!
Cool vid G, if your back in Anza this Jan might see you there.
I wish JS came back to the US. They were as popular as lost before the pandemic but now the supply chain is screwed. Great video
If you’re not gonna take the monster could i borrow it? Nice vid as always, interesting to see the comparison of the top JS models, schooner looks epic
I would for sure paint forget-me-nots on that board🎨 really dig the schooner 👍⭐️
Kale ripping bro 🤙
Luckily the waves are so bad where I live I don't have to worry about spending money on the HP side of my quiver.
I got a forget me not, 5,11 with 24.8L. In 4 years of having it I got to surf it twice. Went down to a point break (Rodiles) on the last swell with 3m faces that session and that day just justified having the board for me. Stuck to the water like a knife as you bottom turn and turn of the top it sounds like a lightsaber just cutting through the water. Cant get over the fact that I could’ve had something less like a step up so I could have a board in between the Fmn and my Monsta box but it’s a beautiful board for a beautiful day.
i was looking for a board that is good for summer, it be pretty cool thing to do for a video
Try medium fins in your pulled in tail step ups. Can feel a bit sticky with large fins
Another cool vid with some great conditions in! What do you think of the xcel wetty? Mine lets water in straight away, but then stays warm anyway. Bit diff to the hyperfreak I had before!
Can you share your mobility routine!! Would be much appreciated love your vids kale keep it up!!
