In this episode I review the Pyzel Gremlin in super fun 1-5’ surf. The Gremlin is a true small wave Groveler with low entry rocker, and its wide point front from center making it a great paddler. The belly of the board is relatively flat making it super fast through flat sections on small waves coupled with medium tail rocker for performance in the pocket.
I found the Gremlin to be very fast and responsive and I enjoyed surfing it as a Thruster and a Quad. I highly recommend the Gremlin for beginner/intermediate to the pro level for ease of surf and high performance maneuverability. I found this board to excel in 1-4’ surf and beyond that I recommend transitioning to the Phantom to maximize each boards strengths.
This episode is the last of a three board series that started with the Pyzel Ghost as a HPSB / Mini Step Up, the Phantom as a daily driver, and now the Gremlin as a small wave Groveler. Each board has the Ghost DNA and surf with noticeable similarities in board outline and attributes. All three boards are a favorite of mine for 2018 in each wave category. We got great waves for all 3 board reviews and each board proved to be user friendly with high performance surfing in the pocket and incredible down the line speed.
