Shred Show - The Ledge by Album Surfboards

[@danielthomas8463]

Bring back shred show , we miss your board reviews happy 2021

[@camerondavid8089]

This is my favorite video you have ever made!

[@Ameland50]

love the mix between shred show and a view inside the head off the shaper.

[@moustachelouie]

to be honest, even though i enjoyed this video, i think the two styles of video each serve a purpose and the hybrid style kind of dilutes them. the board reviews give us an in depth look as to how the board was constructed and how it will most likely preform and the interviews give us a look into the shaper/designers mind, how they think, what inspires them and how they arrived at the premise of their design theories. but who cares what i think, its your show and you can do what you want, i'll still continue to watch each episode over and over again!

[@robcohen4294]

I watched this last night and just picked up a Ledge today. Now all I need is a solid swell. Thanks again for the review.

[@pedrobenach5313]

Rad. Aloha from south shore Oahu. This board seems perfect for the shape of the wave here. I personally feel stoked about the interview section. Surfers everywhere, especially here in hawaii because there are so many people trying to learn what a "shape" does to your surfing, would benefit from a shop like that. Aloha.

[@Hadske]

Excellent episode. Thanks for keeping it refreshing, Chris.

[@robcohen4294]

Chris, I dig this episode and loved having Matt's comments interspersed throughout. Without a more formal introduction giving some background it didn't feel like a shred talk but more like an enhanced shred show. Realizing it is likely more work I would love to see more shred shows like this and still get the occasional shred talk.

[@BaydreamR]

Yes good format. Works for me. Thanks CG!

[@billyhandy]

This format works great, enjoyed it even more than the usual episodes. Great job!

[@dgarland10]

Loved the combo of your thoughts on the board and a talk with the shaper. Would love to see more reviews of other Album models as well!

[@djgorenberg9694]

Love the setup of all the new videos how its more of a vlog as you go and do your thing and visit other places. This was pretty cool too because we got to hear what you thought of the board as well as the shapers view. loving your vids still!

[@dmdurazo]

Awesome new film layout! Loved the mix up of user and maker POV's!

[@harveylegend]

Shred show rocks, love change the forecast more of that please. Was a little dubious when I started watching this new format, worried it would basically turn into an advert for a shaper. Actually really liked watching shapers perspective pared with your own. Good work.

[@afrothunder1784]

This video was great! Love the board reviews. Really love the interviews. Keep doing your thing. Whatever you post....I'm gonna watch.

[@mrtnestevez]

I always wondered how much of the concepts you share on each episode was intel from the shaper itself and how much was deducted by you! I actually think this mix between classic shred shows and the interview format it's great for us to get a clear idea of the boards and shapes you share! Keep mixing it up and working the way around the shows! Great work!

[@ahrenmadams5491]

love this way of dong things man used to get a bit bored near the end of your vids, this is a great way of switching up your content.

[@FamiliaKirby]

I like this format and hearing from the shaper himself. It would be cool to see you, or someone else, in action surfing the different boards you are highlighting. That would help to give more of an idea of how it performs in different conditions. Thanks for all the great videos!

[@jonathans1340]

This was pretty cool. I thought it was interesting how we got the breakdown of the board from you and heard the shaper's perspective at the same time.

[@TheWiffinator]

Love the new video layout, such a sick way to present it. Wicked stuff man.

[@bartubos76]

keep eh coming! love to hear the shapers thinking process.

[@jackhale2602]

Great video, combination works perfect!! Whatever you enjoy doing

[@Oshri_sudri]

Great video as usual! Good interview with Matt Parker, amazing shaper. It's work good like that. Keep doing 👌. Thank you ✌

[@Themachinegun]

Excellent show! Matt is such a cool dude!

[@cellbic1electric]

Enjoyed it a lot. Good to have the details from the designer along with your overview. Have you considered doing more factory tours and such? Showing the designers making the boards or fiddling with concepts?

[@NateGfit]

this is sweet you get to see the shapers point of view plus your down to earth WHAT IT REALLY MEANS stuff. sick vid

[@aramdg]

I enjoyed this one. Keep them coming

[@jonathanbailey2207]

Great show! Mixing in some footage of people surfing the board - maybe explaining some principles behind the design that are showcased in the footage - would be sick!

[@nicholasmlynn]

Cool episode, Chris! Something new / experimental-why not? I think it's your creative approach to all these (and sharing the stuff you're amp'd about) that makes these vids work. And I would add this: The surprise factor is one of the things I love about Shred Show. To me, it's WAY more fun not knowing exactly what's going to happen after the opening logo!

[@jacobsakcat9189]

this board is a throwback to the 70's. it is very obvious. although the bottom and rocker have been modernized, the deck and outline are all but identical. i would love to try a scaled down version of this board in a punch beach break. good show...good interview. seems like a cool dude.

[@marikus]

Awesome episode!

[@paskrell]

Great format!

[@jameskrejcarek2670]

Great format, I was thinking about the Shred Talk with Lovelace and was hoping for something like this on the vBowls. I think that there is a lot more you can do with this type of video, such as sharing what you see in the board with the shaper and recording their reactions/thoughts. And really digging in on intent in design like you did with this video. As a heavy consumer of your videos (often many views of the same episode over weeks/months), I've grown in appreciation for your perspective on board design. In this video Matt pointed out something that you haven't focused on much: fin placement relative to the end of the board. It was a small note in the overall video, but I think it added a depth to the review that could only come from this type of format. So keep up the experimentation! It's awesome. With regards to Album surfboards, Matt is the MAN! I've gotten a couple boards from him since you introduced us to him with the Darkness video and am planning on at least a couple more! His color/designs are amazing.

[@georgepetrofski6005]

Do what ever makes you happy bro.....I'll keep watching either way

[@seanegreene]

heck yea, great format. keep doin this

[@ichorousmedia]

very retro outline, looks like a great trimmer, also much more well rounded overall with this kind of video, different and I think better.

[@kimberlypaoletti9675]

You're awesome, love all the stuff you put out. Keep being creative and trying new video ideas!

[@Paulekonrad2]

great format!

[@glenmack3640]

G'day mate, the interviews are really interesting, getting to hear the shapers perspective. Keep in mind as we can't see the boards in the flesh, your technical comments on rockers, rails etc help me know what the boards are like. I would like to know nose & tail width & rocker measurements too. All these tech comments, plus shapers comments combined give the full story. Good work mate.

[@joshuacairns1560]

Love this style of video would be great if you could do more

[@danthomas9647]

Hey Chris good job . It's always good to listen to a shapers thoughts on designing boards. Did you rip the top of that wave , you look like your jamming a solid bottom turn. Do you ever think of going back and doing a review on Tomo's Evo? Looking forward to your next review .Cheers

[@adambaldwin2946]

This one was rad, such a shame we can't get fanatics in Australia. Ps I'm half way through building a shaping bay shed in the back yard. Yew!!!!

[@shanevoelker1212]

Yeah Chris, dig the new format. Keep it up. And I like the alternative board show. There are so many guys you can do this for like, Neal Purchase JR, Tyler Hatzikian, Eden Saul, Tyler Warren, Robin Kegal, etc. Keep it up! Cheers

[@matnardone5529]

I think the mashup is Great. I didn't agree with everything he said, but that's fine! I wouldn't want to spend 30 minutes hearing someone gush, but getting insight and feedback directly from shapers is awesome. I spent time on the Album website after, they have some really nice looking boards. Look forward to more!

[@scotts3015]

Hey man love all your videos, this was a cool change up and I definitely enjoyed it. I do like the super detailed Shred Show videos though. I think it would be cool if you either took videos of yourself surfing or of other people surfing the boards you're talking about, so you can show and pinpoint how the board reacts or give a visual to the concepts you're explaining. I'm not new to surfing but I'm not particularly skilled either so I think that would give surfers like me or new surfers a better understanding. P.S. your FW Baked Potato video pretty much has me convinced that is going to be my next board!! Keep up the good work man!

[@DorvipeRR]

Stop making videos! My surfboard wishlist just gets longer and longer because of you! Love the show!

[@Waxhead75]

Like the new format. Would be great to have shaper also talk about specifics of the board and not just concept. Keep them coming!

[@PineappleSmack]

Video was pretty sick with the mash up, i think throwing a cpl more clips of you actually riding the board your talking about is something more people would wanna see too

[@JakeKeville]

Love the new set up, would you go quad or thruster on a step up?

[@pacolino6291]

i love mixin it up a little keep it up

[@Bajapalm]

I enjoyed it but if they were all like this it makes the video much longer. Maybe a quick overview of the board first and then go into more depth for those with time and interest. I always make time but am lucky to work from home. Yes looks like quite a few single fins I had in the 70's. Good work! Thanks!!!

[@masongordon59]

Good to hear from the shapers perspective

[@RobBerks]

Yeah, i agree - this worked well, maybe you could add some footage of you and possibly the shaper as well? Smash together three things! Hahaha Enjoyed it!

[@taicoalves5583]

Awesome!!!

[@braynerick]

That's a review bra! Awesome!

[@kahelekoki6215]

I think the best way is to combine the tech of a board with actual surfing footage of that board in the water

[@farcinue]

I dug the mash up of both board and shaper. How did your Ledge compare to your Pigdog? They look similar and are made for same type of wave.

[@ronhaverkamp5029]

I'm a fan.

[@GeniusUnleashed]

I like this format. I bought a Ledge, didn't work for me, unfortunately. Love his Def model though, that was the best mid-size wave (4-8') board I've ever ridden.

[@lelouch513]

can you do one on the album symphony?? different shape than the usual stuff

[@nunomendes2372]

I like it !!

[@bryan4907]

Yes!!

[@simonarnold3597]

The format works really well, the only recommendation would be to mic up the two of you or do the interview somewhere quieter (little beeps and background noise going on here)

[@davidjacobs6328]

It works. Would love even more tech info from shaper.

[@stanleykolimago940]

Even though this does not relate to the video can you make a video describing how to pick out the pair of fins for different boards and conditions

[@charlesnatzu]

love it ..

[@apazione]

I like it, invest in a mic and its good to go. Really interesting on getting the shaper's state of mind on their process of designing a new board and why they chose to do what they did.

[@Julian0K]

Review the GSI 7S Slipstream! Or 7S Saltshaker..

[@MarcosKedor]

can we see a video of you surfing?

[@__-hw8cz]

This works!

[@MarkWag2]

Seems very similar to a board that would usually be set up as a single fin. How would riding it a a thruster, like this board is, compare to the single fin set up

[@user-mf2rb7ki8x]

Would love to see how this board works as a single fin.

[@1commentking]

I have a Pucas Original 69er which is based on the same basic principles as The Ledge, thin pin tail and fishy wide point quite far up the board.I have an absolute love hate relationship with it. It carves great and the tail feels really free, but it is the most unforgiving board I have ever surfed. Put your feet in the wrong place and the board flaps up and down in a way that makes recovery almost impossible. Its weird.

[@altonious5736]

Pretty cool, if you could review a board and then interview the creator of it and what they have to say

[@aidanrichards186]

im 11 and i ride a 5'1 what length should i get?

[@nalukeko]

It's cool to have the shaper's opinion on a board you're showing, but the remaining shred talk content could have been its own shaper related episode... I vote keeping them separate, but do like specific board comments by the shaper in the board review...

[@bryan4907]

Please do his supersede model!

[@HoStevie]

Yes it works, but fix that smoke detector!

[@ianblackman2695]

@ShredShow Chris love your videos. I am an audio editor for film and TV and was able to rip the audio from this clip and remove the smoke detector beeps pretty well. Let me know if you want me to send you the file. I will send an e-mail to your website too.

[@lukehoj]

Looks like a blown up Hypto Krypton.

[@andrewsugishita3334]

Fire alarm beeping?

[@Bajapalm]

Oh yeah, I went and looked at my smoke detector LOL

[@rodneycraft]

I've watched your videos since day one. I like them all BUT I will say this bro, I think you are so worried if you are doing right or wrong; you are doing right... making videos about surfboards and surfing... people get stoked. Just keep recording my friend! No need to worry, no format needed, surfboards are in them, people will watch! Shred stories... mic drop

[@nalukeko]

...and I hope somebody changed the battery in that chirping smoke detector.

[@robertmckinley9109]

I would like to donate to the fire alarm battery switch. Seriously, don't shoot a interview with some random beep going off. Easy fix dude, just sayin...

[@daniellemarquand257]
