You've always been a JS fanboy, but this time DAMN you looked good on it and the outline in shape through my eyes are on point bigtime!!!!!! Shredding anybody???? Great walkthrough and review old boy lol.....

[@WoolyTV]

Thanks mate. Yes I’m not hiding I have a great relationship with most of the JS boards but I have had some great Pyzels, CI’s, DHD and I couple of FireWires that have worked really well for me too. Doesn’t matter what label is on this one it goes great 🤙. Not to forget that the boys at JS have been super supportive of Wooly TV from the very first episode 🙏

[@nyril4422]

Hi Wooly ! Great review !! As an intermediate already having a twinny for small waves would you consider the XG or the XF ? Will the XG will not be too performancy for a low intermediate working on turns ? Surfing head high wave most of the time. Would want something that i can push to overhead this winter too. Yewwwww

[@WoolyTV]

If you already have the twinny then I would look at the Xero Gravity for sure.

[@RBNK157]

How is it compared to the og flyer ?

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate, sorry Ive never ridden an OG flyer

[@Ronny439]

Hey mate, got a monsta 2020 is there much overlap between the 2 as i know you surfed the m2020 in some average waves and it still went well. Cheers legend.

[@WoolyTV]

The XG will out surf the Monsta in anything under head high. The Monsta has more rocker and concave so it really needs a good quality wave to get the best out of it. I dont see much crossover in these two boards.

Hey mate another good review. I have a DHD Phoenix and MF DNA. Do you think the Xero Gravity would sit in between these 2. Also have you ridden it at Urbnsurf Sydney. If so how did it go? Thanks Mark.

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate, yes that sits nicely between the 2 DHD boards. I have ridden a XG in both Sydney and Melbourne and it works for sure. I would only go the HYFI if you're planning to use it in the pool regularly.

[@kulfonbustardo1588]

Your nearly wholely responsible for me buying too many new js boards from beach beat up here on the sunny matey love ya reviews from begining to end the info how its delivered verbal visual demonstrational timeing etc etc properly tested with varied weather conditions etc etc and most importantly i feel like its possible if i try hard enough i could obtain a level of surfing close to your level one day ya know. Its hard to relate to a world title holders review of a board (assumeing you didnt win one back in the day (im still newish😂 )

[@WoolyTV]

Thanks Ha ha, make sure you tell the Beach Beat boys that next time you're in there! Don't worry I defiantly never won a world title!

[@TheRodrigoRomano]

Great video and great surfing! How do you compare de Xero Gravity vs CI happy everyday? Cheers from PT

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate They are really similar boards that work in similar conditions. Really comes down to what you like. If you like the feel of CI boards (OG Flyer, Rocket Wide) go the HE. If you are more of a JS guy then grab the Gravity. I didn’t ride them on the same day in the same conditions so I can’t give them a true surf off but when I watch the footage I would say the JS comes first!

[@Mohanz]

Fantastic review mate! Helped me decide between the CI Happy every day and this one. What's your opinion PU vs HYFI for this? I'm new to epoxy boards, but heard good things.

[@WoolyTV]

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

[@Mohanz]

@WoolyTV yep that's super helpful bro. Most of my waves are pretty powerful and punchy so I'll stick to PU

[@WoolyTV]

@@Mohanz yeah that’s the go

[@bayyoung]

Like how you test boards in a wide variety of waves. It gives a much better idea how each board performs. The 2 turn combo on the larger day on the left must've felt good. 👍

[@WoolyTV]

Yep I try my best to use the boards in a variety of waves they are designed for. Coming back from 6 months injury, just a bottom turn feels good 😂

Hi wooly thanks for your reviews! How is xero gravity vs raging bull ? Thanks yewww!

[@WoolyTV]

I havent ridden a Raging Bull but if you like round tails and a bit more foam under the chest then the RB is a great option. I think the RB needs a slightly better quality wave than the XG.

[@Undergroundffn]

Hey wooly if you had fo pick out of this or the happy everyday what you going fir and what were the main feeling differences you felt cheers

[@WoolyTV]

@@Undergroundffn I prefer the XG over the HE but I did really like the HE. The HE is shorter for the same volume as the XG. I ride a 6’1” XG but rode a 6’0” HE and could have even ridden the 5’11”. So it probably comes down to how tall you are and which one suits your length and volume. Both a great but the XG DIMs suit me better.

[@Ronny439]

Hey legend, Ive had an air 17x and a Monsta2020. Unreal boards. I was looking to get a Pyzel red tiger for everyday beachies (simply to just have a different feel) since ive always been on JS’s. However, this video makes it hard to go past the xero gravity.

[@WoolyTV]

I liked both the Air17X and the Monsta 2020. The Xero Gravity sits in the middle of those two but closer to the Air17X. If I could only choose one board, it would be a Xero Gravity.

[@jsnmrtn]

What do you think of those new moulded creatures pads?

[@WoolyTV]

Really good. Good feeling underfoot, grippy and better for the environment.

[@billandrews9267]

Great review as always. I revisited this as it looks like JS have released this badboy in the CarboTune. Is there any scope for you to do a review in the CarboTune layup it would be awesome to know how they compare. Looking to replace my Aipa Dark Twinn in Dual Core construction in another 12-18 months and the Xero Gravity looks the goods.

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate Yes I now have the Carbotune version. If you jump on my Instagram I have just posted up a small clip on it.

[@brendonwiseman8747]

Hey Wooly would you recommend pu or hifi? I have a 3 board quiver with groveller and step up covered. This would need to split the middle. Considering hifi s as I liked my Monsta box in hifi not that I ever had the pu. Cheers

[@WoolyTV]

Really depends on what sort of waves you’re surfing the most. If you will ride it in waves that you will be pumping and needing to generate speed then I would go the HYFI. But if you will be using your grovel board for that then maybe the PU could be the option. I like both constructions and they both have their place.

[@brendonwiseman8747]

I ended up getting a Xero in hifi and may go the gravity in pu. Might ditch the mashup I currently have as I feel the Xero may have it covered

[@markbrodster]

Great surfing, I was looking at one of these for an indo trip in September, most of my boards are in the 43/44 range in pu . I’m in the middle of the sizes I can get either 42.5 liter or 45.7 liter not sure whether I should go up or down. I’m 106kg

[@WoolyTV]

Thanks mate. I’m in the opinion that up is always the answer but it really depends how your current board feels.

[@RBNK157]

[@WoolyTV]

Will surf better in under head high waves than the Phantom.

Great vid! I've been out of the JS loop for a while. Is this the heir to the Black Box? I had a black box or black box 2 years ago and never surfed better than i did on that board.

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate This one replaces the Monsta Box. The closest one to the Blak Box is the new Xero Fusion. I haven’t reviewed this one as yet.

[@jasonsedor5676]

Many many thanks. Guess I'll be buying one ASAP@@WoolyTV

[@lucasbadham6906]

Hey Wooly how do you think the xero gravity would go with a round tail?

[@WoolyTV]

If you like round tails, then it would be a great option. JS used to offer the Monsta Box as a round tail and now the XG has that option.

[@DCInc-wh9kl]

This board definitely like you. Fallen down the woolly TV rabbit hole again over Xmas/NY. Trying to decide btw Monsta 10ER, ZG and Xero, to be the 3rd board for the 2024 travel quiver to sit btw the wooly approved 6,3 Twin pin and 5.10 Black Baron for Maldives and Bali. Leaning toward the 6.1 ZG in higher vol. what ya reckon?

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate, Really depends on what size and type of waves you want it to perform in? Head high and above good quality then look at the Monsta 10. If you want it to work in a wider variety of waves then jump on the Xero Gravity. If I was to own one surfboard and have to make that one board work for me in all conditions, it would be the Xero Gravity.

Rocket Wide will have more volume unless you go for the Xero Gravity in the Easy Rider DIMs. That would be my pick over the Bullseye but they will both do the job 🤙

[@jblo76]

Awesome review and new subscriber here. About to pull the trigger on a Xero Gravity in HYFI 3.0. Wooly, do you have any feedback on HYFI construction in terms of it getting pressure dents easily or buckling? My last board in this category was a stringerless epoxy DHD and it didn’t get pressures but it recently snapped on me and not in very big conditions l. So I’m hesitant to get another stringerless board and I don’t like PUs. Thanks.

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate The HYFI 3 will dent like the DHD would, I have heal and toe dents in mine but nothing crazy. I havent buckled any of my HYFI 2 or 3 boards ever, not saying it cant happen but Ive never done it. I would think that the full carbon bottom on the HYFI 3 will make them even less likely to buckle.

Hi Wooly. Why did you choose a large when you used the Blackstix for the weaker conditions and was it the neutral Blackstix? I really like to use the P8 Legacy Pivot in my xero gravity as I‘m 93kg. How do they compare to the F8 Blackstix? Cheers Mate!

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate, I seem to go to a large when Im using Blackstix and yes it was a neutral F8. I havent used the Pivots on that board.

[@WoolyTV]

Yeah you could have both boards and use the Xero to grovel on and then the Gravity as it gets slightly better but as you see from the wide range of conditions I rode this in, it could be a one board quiver 🤙

Level of surfing is advanced, been surfing 38 years, at 53 I’ve put on a bit of timber at 110kg. Only ever use one board for where I live, never have multiple boards and never have, normally have my boards made for me by a local shaper so not used to buying out of the rack, but really fancy a JS.

Hi WOOLY, for my xero gravity in easy rider, it didn’t like windy, slow mushy waves and even when there was a pocket, it was more snappy and didn’t want to carve in the weak stuff. Also when I was outside the pocket, felt like the hand break was on. Not an everyday driver for the waves I surf.

[@WoolyTV]

Hmmmm not every board works for everyone. Also really depends on the waves you surf. For the waves I surf regularly it went really well. You can see on the fat left I was surfing it went well through the dead sections and even in the waist high beach break it performed. Maybe the standard Xero might be a better option for you 🤙

Great show Wooly. I ended up pulling the trigger on this today, because of this review! Not trying to have buyers remorse… But I have a Pyzel Phantom in the same dimension (round tail/quad); which I love for the speed and how userfriendly it is. Could you see both of these staying in the quiver, and working alongside each other? And if so, how would you consider using them. I.e) Phantom and quad/round tail and XG as standard thruster. Or… If there is too much overlap, which would you hold onto/sell? And is there much of a difference to the two boards? Cheers

Hi mate Thanks 🙏 I haven’t ridden a Phantom but from what I understand they would work great in good quality waves and maybe not works so well under head high? I think you will find the XG to work well in waist high to over head surf. I have a good habit of holding onto my boards until I have ridden the new one, even if it’s the same model and size. I like to make sure my new one goes as good or better than the previous one before I sell it. Hold them both and work out what waves they both perform best in. 🤙

@@WoolyTV thanks Wooly. Appreciate you coming back so promptly on this, you’re a legend. The Phantom a round tail/quad. So was thinking of running it like that to go straight. Whilst use the XG as a thruster/squash. Haha if you’re review wasn’t so strong, I wouldn’t of had the rubber arm to buy the XG! Appreciate all you’re doing with the content. It’s brilliant work!! Cheers

Looking super sharp there 🤙🔥💪. How do you decide on what boards to stick on given you test soo many?! 🤔

[@WoolyTV]

Its always hard! I try not to hold onto any board that I havent ridden for 6 months - except my big wave boards as I can sometime only ride them for a few weeks every year.

Best for a daily driver xero gravity, P2, or inferno 72?

[@WoolyTV]

I haven’t ridden the Inferno but the Xero Gravity wins of the P2 for me.

[@craig8638]

Out of all the reviews I’ve watched you do that board looked the best under your feet. Especially on the rights.

[@WoolyTV]

Thanks mate. Yea it did go great and I’m using it in most surfs at the moment and I keep getting it even more dialed! 🤙

[@joseande9627]

air 17x vs monster box vs xero gravity for performance surfing in everyday waves?

[@WoolyTV]

Hi mate I think the Xero Gravity wins. I liked both the Air 17X and the Monsta Box was my all time favourite but the Xero Gravity feels that little bit better 🤙
