Anyone have any experience/ feedback on the new 2020 phase 5 hammerhead board? Curious on how the peanut shape performs? And why the change?
don't have any experience with the hammerhead but i came across this video when i was looking at boards a while back. 2:53 they talk about the hammerhead.

Since the Hammerhead has a square nose, it would increase the surface area making it harder to pearl.
But I do not hear people talking about that issue on the Matrix w/the pointed nose.
Just buy the Matrix and you will never need another skim board ever. I mean if Parker Payne or Sean Silveira haven't outgrown the board I think you should be good.
that matrix looks an awful lot like the p5 daniello pro model I have had for around 8-10 years-ish.
everyone told me that board would be too hard to ride BUT it has turned into the boat board that I have used to teach almost every new surfer we have taken out.
it's not my fav as I prefer surf style but everyone loves the daniello and if the matrix is anything like it, I'd jump all over it.
hammerhead is interesting but I can't say I'd spend 6 or 7 bills on it. looks like a fad-shape that won't last.
