In this episode I put the Pyzel “Astro Pop” through the paces in 1-4’ surf. We started testing this model in Waco, TX at BSR Surf Resort and it did NOT disappoint. The two custom boards I ordered worked insane in the pool and ocean. The Astro Pop is very fast and offers excellent performance in tight transitions. I found it to be very user friendly and it excelled in 1-4’ surf.

This performance fish felt good as a Quad, Twin Fin + Trailer, and it went great as a Thruster in the ocean too. This is the most versatile board I have ridden to date that shreds in all three different fin set ups. I highly recommend the Astro Pop for beginner to expert level surfers that want to excel in small waves.

Have you ever seen yourself surf on video before? Ever wonder if you’re riding the right board? How about your fins… do they even matter? Can a couple minor changes in your technique get you to the next level in your surfing? 

My brother Aarron and I would like to invite you to experience a VIP session with us. 
Come spend 2 hours getting the VIP treatment as we dial in your boards, fins, and surf technique.

Aarron will capture your waves on video, and I will be in the water with you working on surf technique and dissecting your surf equipment. After the session is over, I will take the captured video and break down technique and equipment adjustments as needed.   more
