Santa Cruz G Deck

 

Has anybody ever ridden one?

I have scoured the internet and have not come across any reviews or peoples experiences. i would greatly appreciate any feedback as i  am trying to decide between a 5’10” G deck and a 6’0” Pumpkin seed.

thanks

Just had my first session with my 5’10" G Deck Landshark II.  Awesome, in a word.  It’s got great paddle power, and is super nimble and fast.  Catches waves like a full fish, but turns like a shortboard.  Very skatey.  I really like the skateboard-like kick tail and all the thought that went into the deck contours.  Highly recommended!

FYI, I am 6’0", 170 lbs.

Do you happen to want to sell that board? i am looking for a christmas present for myself and i love the style of that board its just hard to find a little cheaper because that board is definately an investment

thanks for the reply.

 

i ended up buying the 5’10" g deck. have yet too use it as we are having a cold spell up here and i dont like to get out of the wetsuit in -8 degree weather. i will post as soon as i try it out. very excited to give it a try based on your comment. 

 

are you looking to sell that 5'10 my cold friend?

Hahahahahaaa! I’m not sure where in the middle of my rave review did I give the impression that I would want to take a loss on a brand new board that has shot to number one in my quiver after one session!

I did see one go off on craigslist the day after I bought mine for $250 when somebody bought one who was way outside the weight range for the board and it wouldn’t float him.

My advice? Save up your pennies and pay full price (same price as a Merrick, Rusty, or comparable) and get on one ASAP or be prepared to wait a long time for a bargain!

How will someone pry the G deck away from me?
FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS!!!

Mwah-haa-haaaaaaaaa!!!

Hey A man can always dream right? Hahaha
