Well I had seen Brooko's Surf Shapes 8'6 and it looked great but Brooko rips and I am still a Kook so I figured hmmm not likely.

Today I had the oportunity to try Camo Hosks 9'4 x 29 ish Surf Shapes out and I can only say it was a blast.

The board with my Wide A$$ on it (105kg) needs a juicy wave but we had plenty of those.

I caught 2 absolute smokers all the way to the beach and it rips.

The board is quite stable when you stand on it for a pulled nose pulled tail board, how ever it has a feel about it and you just know it will be loose on the wave.

I was able to put my foot right on the nose to take off in the wind yet it didnt pearl in the slightest. Late take off was also a dream.

At first I was over powering the board with brute force. I soon found out you only needed gentle corrections to get the best out of this board. It ripped bottom turns with ease and came of the top even in the wind without a problem.

I would have to say this was the most impressive shortboard SUP I have ever ridden it was a total eye opener.

I did try to pack it on my roof but Camo came and retrieved it.

I have to say Camo you have one very very sweet ride my friend.
