Finally found a little wave to try of the my new 9-1 Hull Ripper Pro. I''ll write a full review later , been up most of the night putting this together.
Unreal board and very easy to ride , no bucket chucking but a pretty cool video.
great vid mate, hope to see a few more
just wondering what boards you normally ride, your weight if you don't mind and what you thought about the about the board ie stability
looks like it paddles well and gets onto waves nice and early, when you snaked the guy on the shorty (nice move)

Nice one Rob..
.. The black and white looks great.
Are you coming back to Merimbula again this year?

What do you think the stability will be like in rough conditions , sweepy cross currents ect.With the extra glide and paddling speed could be a good board for those bigger days.
That's very cool Piros.
I was thinking you've done really well with your 3D animation skills but soon realised you'd gone for the low-tech, smoke and mirrors approach. Well done though.
Nice surfing too mate.
Nice work Piros, I'll take the 3.30pm booking slot on Friday to try the board. Although with my balance at the moment I might need a couple of outriggers to stabilize me, I'll ring wassa and see if he can organise from drip tray.

5 1/4" was a typo!
Another great Vid Piros well done!
Surfed my new 9'6 hull ripper on the weekend in offshore perfect head high sets at Torquay Vic .
The hull bottom does roll a bit at first when paddling but to be expected as ivé been out of the water for a while.
once your on the wave and push off the tail this thing it just accelerates
!
This board became a talking point on the beach as the profile of this board created a lot of positive discussion ,im already thinking 9'2 in six months time.
Great to see Camo hosk in the water down the Surfcoast on the weekend!

Great video! Nice to see the board being ridden in non Hawaiian conditions.
If I'm not mistaken, you didn't always have your back foot on the stomp pad while turning. I was under the impression that most were saying you needed to be on the tail to turn the board? Maybe that is just for tighter turns?
Keep the video reviews coming! Awesome job!
