    Default Board suggestions

    I just bought a 2019 Helix, looking to buy some equipment. I have a good skim-style board, looking for a surf-style board now. Any recommendations would be appreciated, thanks.

    I can only speak on the surf style boards I own, and I also still consider myself a beginner.

    Phantom - easy for tricks, but feel its better for smaller guys. I have a 200lb friend ride it all the time tho.

    Vodoo - nice for bigger guys (fast), but I have a hard time spinning it. I've seen other do it tho. Taylor Black (moomba FB group) does 360s with no problem.

    I ride a Matrix, and love it, so keep that in mind lol. I started on a hybrid. I've never cared for a surf style.

    My favorite is the p5 swell, similar to the aku but has a flat nose.

    Once you ride a few you will know why.

    Just ordered a 2019 P5 Aku from Evo, sounds like it’s just what I’m looking for thanks for the suggestions. Btw the soulcraft boards look awesome but just bought a boat and a lift and trying to save a little cash.

    You’ll love the Aku. It’s so damn fast and turns and carves so easily. It’s my favorite of many boards I have ridden.
