I took one for a few runs yesterday at Wanda. Very nice- maybe due to it being heavier than what im used to (Cab Custom '11) it charges through chop giving very stable feeling- same for landing jumps.. good pop, bit heavy swing weight but hopefully can get used to it soon enough. Nice on waves, had some monsters out back and did some turns on them and no danger of catching an edge/rail. Love the dimensions and size of the 38- no spray to face all the time.
Will try again in better suited conditions. I only took it for a spin cause it was new and the wind came in strong enough while i was on my surfboard. I would think it will be a screamer in super flat stuff or behind a boat or cable.
Could someone explain the redness of the thumbing? Its fine to redthumb me but with no explanation its got me a bit confused. Don't think ill try to make any reviews in the future. Christ

Your guess is as good as mine. Didn't seem like shameless pimping so not 100% sure why it was red thumbed.
I put a green in for you - I valued the feedback as Im interested in the Pop and yours is one of the first reviews Ive seen on it. Looking forward to hearing more.
Thanks Saffer and O for the positive comments. I think there must have only been a couple of red thumbs and now its balanced out to neutral. Again it doesn't matter but getting red thumbs made me wonder what was the point of doing a review.
I haven't ridden the Steeze but comparible i would say by the specifications. Definately solid landings on the Pop. Juicerider hopefully you get a demo and test it out yourself. Again I'll post again when I get another crack at the POP!
Due to not having my own board I decided to get one of these from WOK. Only been out once on it so far at Mullaloo on Thursday, so cant judge it yet. Cant wait for some wind and flat water.
Nice looking boards. Keen to try one myself. Interested to see how well they go upwind compared to the tempo! Nice setup Juice will have to hit you up for a trial next time i see you
^^^^^^ Hopefully next weekend mate. Didn't have any problem going upwind when I went out on Thursday. I'll give you a call about next weekend if the wind is up mate.
Gambler weighs in at 2.6 (136cm), 2.9 (139cm) and 3.0 (142cm) for comparison. So it is quite a big heavier but can you notice it when riding? Looks like it is a sweet board!
