I tried and like the whopper but the model i wanted isn't available till June so looking at second hand. I have found a Corebean Ez in a Pure finish and was wanting any help on the difference
Or anyone got a Whopper SH for sale in Perth?
Hey JBShack if you liked the whopper try the SB hero a,t 100 kgs would be great also, it floats me just fine an I push 105kgs, its been the same shape for a couple of seasons now so should be a few around second hand.
I took the Coreban EZ 10' for a 1.5 hour demo paddle on flatwater.
At the time I weighed 122 kgs...it floated me fine and had good glide.
But it does not fit my needs in the surf department.
As to the Whopper, I have been riding the Avanti (Super Whopper with cheese)
It has performed very well in all types of surf... but it is HUGE... And I am not... anymore.
The whopper surfs well from what I have seen, but I want more of a shortboard feel, something I can drive harder but still has the float.
I am down to 106 kgs and I am waiting for my new Fanatic Allwave to arrive.
I will pick either the 9'2 at 160 ltrs or the 9'6 at 174 ltrs.
It seems to be the best performing board for a bigger guy who surfs well.
The Allwave is fairly wide at 31.5" or 32" respectively. They have width at the nose and thickness on the rails for stability... but EVERYONE says they surf and paddle extremely well.
My research also found them to be very well built and pretty light.
Anyway... they are worth a look. Ask Paul.J on this forum... and search Allwave here... lots of interesting discussions.
