This board goes well with an upright quad set , I used the stretch quad rears with a reactor style front fins and it flies plus its super fast through turns, I think it prefers waves around head high with a bit of punch .

Recommended for 2-6 foot surf? (Israel wave)

It’s Maybe not the best choice for Israel’s waves, but in your wintertime, it would be a good option to surf the beach breaks in Tel Aviv and Herzliya during the head high swells if that helps.

Sounds like you bought the board for different purposes, by your review it seems like you were looking more for a groveler for mushy days, other than a performance daily driver shortboard for average to good waves

Hey mate, I purchased this board as I enjoyed riding The V3 Rocket previously, and always wanted to try the Rocket Redux. I felt the board lacked the drive I was looking for, and control. However, I didn’t feel hindered performance wise in steeper sections. Not my favourite board I’ve reviewed so far, but I’d still give it another crack

Nice one mate! I'l considering getting one as well. It would be helpful to know your weight as an indication for the sizing. Would you also take one with more volume under your feet? Cheers
@jakesboardreviews
@jakesboardreviews Месяц назад
@@bigben007ch Hey mate, I weigh roughly around 70 kgs. In regard to volume, If I purchased an RNF 96 new, I’d most likely buy one with more length. I had the RNF Redux, which is still my favourite board to date. It was a stock 5’5 19 1/4 x 2 1/4 at 27 L, and that was perfect. I personally wouldn’t buy the RNF 96 in a 5’3, as a believe length is your friend. However, my performance didn’t feel hindered if that helps.

For boards with deep concave mid rocker would your prefer the KA fins or the MF fins??
@jakesboardreviews

Hey mate, sorry for the late reply. I think both The KA’s and The MF would work for that concave. The MF’s would offer slightly more hold, whilst the KA’s, will feel less stiff due to less rake if that helps.

This board in my opinion doesn’t handle anything very well above 4.5-5ft surf. I ride the boards I review in a wide range of conditions. Maybe as a round tail, it will handle a slightly bigger wave range.

Hey Jake, Have you surfed the Baron 2.0? Can you compare it, especially it looks like that it’s better in bigger waves however loses a bit on smaller days. By any chance could you also compare the baron to the hypto twin and where you would see the differences? Thanks
@jakesboardreviews
@jakesboardreviews Месяц назад
Hey mate, by the Baron 2.0, are you talking about the Red Baron? Because there are a few Barons in The JS Board line. I’ve never ridden the Hypto Twin, so I can’t compare that board to others.

Hey mate, sorry for the late reply. I’d recommend you go the stock 5’6, as the 5’5 may feel a bit too small due to it being a 2+1 setup predominantly. I would say buy the Hyfi only if you want to surf this board in the 1-3 ft range if that helps.
