The White Tiger by Pyzel Surfboards

[@Xainfinen]

I know a French shaper in the Basque country that made two similar shapes that I considered for my first custom. I like that yours combine both elements of those to make up a good intermediate level board.

[@philippepetitpas1883]

Which shaper ?

White Tiger vs Gremlin - What are the differences?

[@orlojones8004]

Only cuz I asked too, and was told, Gremlin has a bit more rocker, White Tiger is flatter and faster... BTW, Gremlin is my favorite overall, Astropop second, depending on the waves. I am stoked to get my White Tiger and give it a go!

[@hybrid20]

@@orlojones8004 Thanks for your feedback. Since I already have a ghost and mini ghost I figured better get a gremlin as I am more used to the rocker of the ghost family boards.

[@orlojones8004]

@@hybrid20 Good call for sure. I'm thinking that the White Tiger is the child of the Gremlin and Astropop after they honeymooned in Bali!?

[@howardolney116]

Recon the White Tiger XL would be sensational as a quad in small hollow waves like Temples for eg.

[@SasoCasablanca63]

I just ordered mine yesterday, Thank you!

[@brianfleming1310]

How it it?

[@SasoCasablanca63]

@@brianfleming1310 it paddles real fast into waves and gets up fast on slower section. I surf East Coast and Costa Rica and it is perfect for 2 - 4 feet. Really fun board and packs great volume for the size, so it moves.

[@jcs7934]

Thank you for the breakdown!

[@danielemoscardinisurf]

Hi Jon, I purchased a WT and RT, two incredible boards for the European West Coast. I’d like to know if, and when, you’re thinking of making a similar video for the Power Tiger? Thank you so much Greetings from Europe!!🤙

[@jonathanbatista8084]

Hey Jon, what fins do you recommend? Noticed the 5 boxes

[@philippepetitpas1883]

Just bought it, and it’s a really nice shape thank you :) actually the half front is like a performance fish and half back like a groveler. For France it’s perfect, you don’t take it when it’s big and hollow, but for the rest of the time, it’s very nice, fun but with still some performance.

[@WsallieW]

Would this board be fun with a Twin or 2 + 1 set up? Since you compare it a bit fishy-feeling. Thanks!

[@michaelrabbitt4981]

Hey Jon, a couple questions; Are these boards made with urethane foam or EPS foam? Are all of your boards shaped by hand?

[@daringlover9371]

98% of his boards are machine cut but sanded down by hand

[@PyzelSurfboardsInternational]

You can order them PU or EPS, and they are all CNC machine shaped/hand finished

[@jhilliard280]

In smaller waves, would eps be the way to go?

[@davidteves3283]

I like that double concave ! Ayeeee bring back grooves on the tail whatever those are I remember it always releasing out the lip at bowls

[@facundosaid5490]

Hey Jon, how would you compare this board to the astro pop?

[@earnestblossom1302]

Hey Jon! How does this board compare to the Gremlin, and why might you buy one over the other?

[@PyzelSurfboardsInternational]

This board is more "fishy" , while a Gremlin is more performance board-ish. If you saw a White Tiger with a swallow tail you would call it a fish. Flatter overall rocker than the Gremlin too

[@teqnicaly5185]

I wish I could get one of these as my first shortboard.

[@michaelscurr9046]

Please don’t buy one of these as your first surfboard that would be a huge mistake.

[@orlojones8004]

@@michaelscurr9046 they said first 'shortboard', so maybe surfing a log or mid currently?.... might be a good call actually... if that is the case...

[@JoeyDunphy]

Looks amazing! Would it work as a pin or would that completely change the board? I'm looking for something to get me off my fish when the waves are slightly bigger but still want a fun shape with the wide nose and a ton of volume. Surfing predominantly in New England.

[@orlojones8004]

Red Tiger!

[@PyzelSurfboardsInternational]

I actually made a round tail version for Tyler Wright awhile back and she liked it a lot.

[@littlebear2477]

Red Tiger XL Absolutely beautiful

[@kerryprovence6179]

Would it be too much going up to a 7'0" x 22 1/4" x 3 1/16" on the White Tiger?

[@chicoxiba]

Super nice description;

[@Lotus-Son]

This actually reminds me of this board Todd Proctor shaped about a decade ago (Pyzel’s shape here is more modern and actually has a sharper outline than Todd’s though). Look it up(just for fun) on YT, Todd’s shape was called the Hideoscillous. Bet this White Tiger model is super fun.

[@alexulloa2109]

I got a long board and I’m trying to transition to a short board , you think this is a good starter board for small california surf !?

[@littlebear2477]

Hi there As I’ve only ridden short boards I say to just try and decrease the volume of each board over a period of time would be the best way to transition. Rather than getting frustrated as I just had a long time out of water . Then you will still have fun and I believe the transition would be smoother. This is just my two cents ….

[@codename7133]

This board resembles my half-pint by Arakawa

No-- he was riding his Ghosts there

[@jose2x784]

so is it flat?

[@carloslukather6658]

for me looks exacly like the gremlin board that i have, then no need to have those 2 boards.

[@mrmr314]

John for goodness sake will you start making some double-flyer-swallow channel bottoms please? Why are all your boards no hip, no swallow, no channels? You know they work. They work better. We're not all surfing hollow and powerful Ehukai etc every day.
