I have a 6 ft sub zero hy fi 2 , I am 60 years old and 80 kg , I like a bit of volume , nice board can get a bit of chatter in choppy conditions , was contemplating upgrading to the zero fusion hy fi 3 , I am at sunny coast average conditions around 3 ft most of the time What are pros and cons between the the sub zero and fusion , don’t want to loose the grovel , is the new construction less bouncy in chop Thanks heaps love your reviews

How does this one compare to the DHD Phoenix? Its marketed as a groveller but everyone is just surfing overhead. 😅 A bit afraid that its not so user friendly as the DH

What’s your reasoning on changing the fin sizes on that board and fin theory in general?
@WoolyTV 2 күн бұрын
Ok fins..... My daily drivers and performance boards I usually use medium fins, I vary the construction until I get the feeling Im chasing. If the board feels too loose I will up the size to a large or go to a solid glass fin. In my grovel boards with wider tails I tend to go straight to a large template and mainly go for the Futures Blackstix as they help generate speed in poor waves. This one felt a little loose, I think mainly because it was a touch under volumed for me, so I did ride it with some large fins as well as the medium solid glass. I have the next size up coming and Im thinking that one will be fine with mediums in it as it has a longer rail line to help hold the board in. Hope that makes sense.....

@WoolyTV 2 күн бұрын
Depends on what sort of waves you're riding. For me if Im having to pump and generate speed in poorer quality waves then I much prefer the epoxy. But if the waves have push and you dont have to pump around and generate speed, then I go onto the PU. Hope that helps

Nice, finally seing someone ripping the 5'6"! Thinking of that one, I'm 172cm 95 kg but gonna try to drop to 85kg. Used to have the 5'3" Baked Potato when I was around 80kg. Loved it but too small for my current weight. I guess the 5'4" would be ideal if I can reach 85kg, but I think it will not float me well enough at current weight.

Im around 90kg and the 5'6" was perfect for grovel. I would look at the 5'8" at your current weight or maybe the 5'6" but I wouldn't go down under 5'6" unless you are going to get below 90kg!

Hi Woolly, love your reviews, you get to surf so much, and in such good waves daily! I have a serious question & need your thoughts (insights) into Carbotune and sizing a board in this construction for me. Do you think that Carbotune is suited to shorter, wider, and thicker (easy rider) or more normal HPSB dims with their slightly longer rail line? I am 6’0 @ 90kg and with the big $$$ I want to get my order right. Do I go 6’0 Xero Gravity in normal dims @ 32L, or the 5’10 easy rider @ 31.5L (because the 5’11 easy rider is way too thick for my liking at 2 5/8)? My normal volume is 32L in PU, but my gut instincts are telling me to go shorter and wider with Carbotune. But I could be wrong, so I am needing your help Woolly, divine for me whether Carbotune will work best as an easy rider shorter and wider or HPSB dims which are narrower and with a longer rail line? I want this board as an all rounder (waist to well over head), but I want the loose fun of whipping and fitting in the pocket and off end sections too (which you typical get in smaller shorter rail line boards). Thanks in advance, you need to come to NZ to do some reviews, but not for the new JS Big Horse model, if you get my drift ;)
@WoolyTV 12 күн бұрын
@@video1critic If it was me I would order the standard DIMs. If your normal boards are around 6’0” 32L I would go that one for sure. The Gravity shape is better suited to be around your height. I ride the 6’1” 33.6L in Carbotune, HYFI and PU, although I don’t ride the PU much after having the Carbotune and HYFI. I agree that I wouldn’t muck around with custom DIMs. I know I’m an old man but I’m one of the fastest paddlers in most line ups and I find 32L too under volume for me even when I’m sitting around 87/88kg. If you wanted to use it as more of a grovel board then the ER DIMs might come in handy for tighter turns in small waves but I don’t have any problems getting tight in the pocket on the 6’1”. Hope that helps
