An Honest Review of the Channel Islands Rocket Wide

*The Joyride is back, and this time we're testing CI's new Rocket Wide craft in their Spine-Tek construction. For the full review, head to: stabmag.com/ha...
Here's a snippet: "As its name implies, the Rocket Wide has an inflated nose and tail that allow for ample speed generation in any type of condition. With the Spine-Tek epoxy construction, I felt the board was typically on top of the water and wanting to always be on the move. This translated into quick transitions between turns and plenty of speed to deliver maneuvers. This is best seen in the miniature ‘oop-to-bank at 0:30 in the clip above. Normally after a rotational air I wouldn’t have the requisite speed or control to perform another quick turn without pumping, but on the Rocket Wide it felt totally natural."
*Sorry for the repost (again)! We had some unforeseen music issues which forced us to reconfigure the CI Rocket Wide clip. Hope you enjoy!

Fav board of all time. On my second one. Fast fast. You have to have the right fins though. I like the GAM thruster or FCS mediuim Performer thruster set.

[@sladestreet6086]

How do I keep my hair that nice surfing?

[@scotty4243]

The predominant consensus amongst the elite surfing establishment is to administer a decent dollop of halibut spunk to said locks for both hold and gleen

[@WhiteNacho]

Is it me or does this guy have a really large head to body ratio? Or does he have really short legs? Or is it just his awkward style?

[@nickbrennan3389]

Hahaha yeah....don't know what it is....terrible style I think....he's a good surfer and way better than me but ??

[@nickbrennan3389]

Hahaha yeah...not sure what it is. Weird style

[@WhiteNacho]

@@nickbrennan3389 It's not so much weather he's good or not but awkward looking.

[@SurferKroky]

He absolutely rips, I'm sure all of you have much better styles 🙄🙄🙄

@@SurferKroky Yeh, these guys are all sponno shredders who get paid to just be themselves. The reviewer is 5'5" and 136 pounds so he is a little dude. Wish I could surf as well as him.

[@shawnweston4741]

The stance often widens these days as airs aren't really possible with a narrow stance.

[@AWilliamsfilm]

Looks horrid under his feet. Looks stupid flat . How many wave's will the everyday surfer catch in today's crowd's on a 5'5 ? . Garbage review.
