Oh my gosh, this little small wave groveler is a game changer. Bring on
summer
good board review!! im around 100kg surfed years ago and looking for new
board think this board is suitable? 5’11 or 6’1? what are your thoughts?
Thanks for the review. I think I might pick one up, and what fins are on
the board?
Just picked one up! Excited to use it and was wondering what your thoughts
are on a quad vs. thruster setup. I’m looking into the AM2 tech flex fins.
Thanks!
Hey really enjoy your reviews, and have been waiting to hear about the Joe,
which sounds like the right board for me. Just curious – do you have any
input on how it might compare to the Sperm Whale? Thoughts about which
direction to go in…for New England (RI) surf mainly…
Hey benny, great review! Could you give me your opinion on which size Av
Joe to get for a beginner/inter, 75kgs and small waves? Can’t decide
between 5’9 or the 5’11. I don’t know if I should go for more volume of the
5’11 or if 39.8L from the 5’9 with a bit more maneuverability.
Great review! How would you say the Joe compares to a Santa Cruz Pumpkin
Seed, or a Firewire Potatonator? I’m beginner/intermediate, 5’11”, 155 lbs
and riding a 6’2″ Pumpkin Seed. It’s fun but would like to up my wave
count.
Hi Benny I have a very big headache! Trying to decide my board for small
waves 0.5 to 2.5/3ft waves measured on the face. Im struggling between the
JOE and the firewire BAKED potato, both in Tri Fin set up. I want a board
that would allow me to surf the most radical in tiny waves. Baked potato
or the JOE? Your input is much appreciated Thank!
Hi Bryan, thank you for your good question. Between the three, my pick is
the Joe – it is the most evolved groveler of the three designs. Plenty of
volume to get you up and going, easy and fun to ride and, in my opinion,
more versatile versus the Pier Pony & Sweet Potato. I hope this helps you!
Cheers, Ben
What do you think is the best groveler for Manly – can’t decide between the
Joe, Sweet Potato and Pier Pony. Now you have reviewed all three which
would you recommend?
Hi Felix, thank you for your message and feedback! For drive and
acceleration in smaller, mushier surf, I’ve been surfing my Joe with the
DANE REYNOLDS SUMMER TEETH AM2 fins by Captain Fin Co. but I also think the
Futures Stretch Quads would work really well with this board. See the link
to the full review in the description for this video for links to the above
fins. Curious to learn more about what surfboard fins? Check out ‘Surfboard
Fins Explained’ at Benny’s Boardroom. Cheers, Ben
hii!!nice review! which FCS fins do you recommend to this board?
No worries Jake Jones, glad this helped you. If you get a Joe, please let
me know how it goes for you! Cheers, Benny
Thank you very much for the feedback Emma Sanders and very glad to hear
that you dig Joe, too! Cheers, Benny
Thanks for doing a review. Been waiting for one on this board forever!
Loved the review! I rode this board at a Channel Islands demo and really
small waves.. It was so fun! I fell in love with it! Thank you for doing
this review, I’ve been waiting for one!
