Got this the other week. This board rips hard (quad with performer and accelerator in rear). This review was the best

[@nickc1715]

Would love to see the Retro ripper!

[@lukemitchell7375]

I have a friend who rides his rad ripper as an FCS quad, and at first, I thought his fin setup was a bit weird. The more I thought about it, the more sense it made. He was riding Mick fanning side fins with reactor quad rears. Heaps of drive and speed from the Mick fannings but still super loose and whippy with the reactor quad rears. When you next review a board, and want to try it in a quad setup, could you please try this fin setup to let us have your opinion on it? Thanks for the great reviews, ripping as always.

[@compisfusion]

Thanks for the reviews and all your help in all the boards I asked about. I ended up getting a 6.0 34.75 L Rad Ripper. I'm close to 6.1 188lbs. It's about 3/4 more L than my shortboard. And I'm happy I did it's just perfect for what I want it for, none then stellar LA beach break 2-4ft. Only had it two short sessions in 2-4ft. When I'm positioned just right, it's fantastic. But I'm battling a little the same as you having me front foot to far forward. . But sure it will adjust. Also, for some odd reasonIs have started to slip off the board on a few waves taking off back side... Ha ha Never normally happen so odd :) Like when losing a golf swing :) anyone experienced that on a new board? Again I'm sure it will sort itself out once my footing has tightened up. Again thanks! Was running at as a quad large jjf and hs. Will try some thrusters, in the beach breaks.

[@cwr8618]

sounds like a lot of volume for your weight. I was considering this board in around 35-35.5L (custom) and I'm 215lbs. Maybe you're having to fight the board bc it's a little too big??

[@compisfusion]

You are 100% right! Sadly.. I should have gone for a 5.10-5.11

If you are in socal Ill swap you a 6.0 for a 5.10 or 5.11 if you got one or find one. Its more or less mint condition.

Got my vote! RW vs Rad ripper, seems to be similar, but the ripper fin set up and not just a thruster has purks.. Which one would you lean 2? I will also compare on your website! Really liking your site!!!! Someone else asked about your 3 board quiver you would select from these boards now, id be interested in your picks for the summer boards

[@surfnshowreviews7777]

Natural Born Reeler Tue RW is a Favorite of mine and the RR is not. I found the RR to be a little sticky when my feet were not in the sweet spot... I guess every board can be sticky or bogg when I’m not standing on the sweet spots but some boards can be more forgiving. With that being said... the RW is more forgiving, smoother rail to rail... so more flow on the RW, but the RR is faster and more radical.

[@surfnshowreviews7777]

Go with Large Reactors

[@danielgill1099]

hi noel i love your reviews they have really improved the way i surf and the boards i buy

[@JC-fz4hr]

Looks to me like the bogging/overpowering the nose is due to riding at too low volume. This board is meant to be ridden with some extra foam, hence the sharp down rail. At low volume the rail is too sensitive and easily overpowered. Go up a size or two and the board will perform better.

[@miguel_abreu]

Hey Noel, your reviews are very complete and always useful, congratulations on your work. I'm in doubt about buying a new board for small waves. What you recommend between the Rad Ripper and the Puddle Jumper HP? I have 80kg and I consider myself an intermediate surfer. If you could give me your opinion, I would appreciate it.

Hi. Love what you do. I understand that ratings and comments are a guide only.. But somewhere here you say the CI UJ is faster than the RR, but on your speed star ratings you have the RR as quicker.

Noel, stoked on the review. Got to pick one up at Hansens and was surprised how heavy it was (probably because most of my boards are EPS nowadays), but I love the shape and keep hearing a lot of good about the RR. I typical enjoy boards at 35-36L but these have a gap from 34.5 at 6'0" to 36L at 6'1". I'm 6'2" 215 and prefer smaller lighter boards. Any recommendations on sizing?

[@rharmston]

Noel, have you ever tried the Nubster fin with quad sets? Would love to hear your thoughts on it if you have ridden it before I pull the trigger on buying one.

[@surfnshowreviews7777]

Bobby Harmston Absolutely... the Nubster really helps with control on a Quad. Quads are really fast and offer good release and sometimes it’s herd to control that speed due to a little slide without that little center fin. Put in a Nubster and you have speed, control, and a tad more pivot with confidence. Nubsters are needed when the waves have a bit more speed and power, or if your riding a really wide tail board as a Quad and you want to control the slide or release.

[@coryhaag6766]

Why wouldn’t you ride a bigger board if you’re foot is ahead of the sweet spot and it’s bogging?

[@nickc1715]

The Retro Ripper is a fun board. Would Rad Ripper or PJHP be a better step down?

Hey Noel - I currently own one of these fun sticks and surf it with a quad fin set up in the Long Island, NY/New Jersey area. Do you consider this board a HPSB or would you recommend a true HPSB for when the surf pumps here (Winter's been pretty good this year/Fall hurricane swell)? I was looking at your Pyzel Shadow review and wanted to know how you would compare the Shadow to the RR? Was thinking the RR is more for small-med surf and that I should maybe be on something like the Shadow for hurricane/winter swell here which is typically the the 4-8ft range. Was looking Phantom but wouldn't want to buy a board that's to similar to the RR I already have... Thanks so much in advanced if you reply...very wise/talented surfer you are, Noel.

@@surfnshowreviews7777 i loved my old franken weirdo, i got the board after it had been repaired a bunch and gained a ton of weight but was over volume for me at 30L my range is more 26-28. Im 5'11 155-160 and i push pretty hard off my back foot. The board worked so well for 1-5ft surf but obviously with that weight it was a more momentum based board or took a pretty punchy wave to get going but it was really responsive and had insane speed once it really got going or in the right conditions it just lit up. I was given it for free and gave it to a buddy of mine who id like to see progress on the conditions that i can still take it out. Definitely one of my favorite channel islands Ive surfed to date.
