New to swaylocks, and getting back into surfing after a 45 yr hiatis. Things have really changed! Has anyone got any feedback or reviews on the Isle noserider or the Paragon Retro or modern noserider? I believe both are Asian popouts done in epoxy!
I had an Isle noserider a few years ago, it was crap, spend the extra bucks for a custom, you won’t regret it.
I 3rd that! Got to be some local shapers in and around Jacksonville that could do you up right with a board for local conditions and your body, abilities, and desires.
Those chinese boards are not all that less once you add in shipping. Keep checking criegslist and you will come up with something that will work for you. I have found lots of great boards on Criags list.
The only other board I have seen that looks like it might be OK is the 33 Degree boards out of San Diego.
33 Degree is a chinese pop-out too. they ahve a local guy that “custom shapes” thier boards for like 150.00 more, so those boards are local, but otherwise…offshore.
