Manufacturer Description
A worldwide favorite, this design excels in small to medium surf but still rides and responds like a conventional shortboard. Al considers this the best small wave shortboard he has ever designed. It should be ridden 2” to 3” shorter and 1/4” to 1/2” wider than your normal shortboard. We can build the Flyer up to 7’6” for you big guys

This board makes it really easy to get into boards a bit earlier.

Could use a little more speed on the wave, earlier entry, and a bit more stability/forgivingness

If you like fishes but want to rip harder, this is the winner

Easy to paddle and pretty forgiving on take off. A little unresponsive.

OG Flyer. Looking for shortbord for small or muchy waves.

My first brand-new board, had it for over a year now and at 6'2" it handles all conditions in Nova Scotia. Lacks a bit in the way of speed, but feels super stable and allows for crisp turns.

It's a fun board, a little stiff. I have 2 others, but I want to get a 5'8" or 5'10" rusty redline. Hoping you could help me decide which one to get, i am 5'6 and 145 lb.

I am not sure why this board gets so much great press. Not a great all around NE board. So many better options. Dosn't get you in earlier. Manueverabilty fine but not earth shattering.

It seems to be very slow on mushy waves, even though it has 27 liters of volume which is apparently too much for me.

sometimes in my cutbacks the board cant get speed after hitting the whitewater and the board gets unstable. it has 4 channels underneath it and it has a round pin
6.5/10 By Chad Lovette on 0000-00-00

Great board for catching waves. Maneuver are somewhat drawn, but overall a very steady and fun board to ride.

hard to catch waves, easy to duck dive, ok paddling

It's ok but I want more paddle speed to get waves earlier
6.5/10 By G on 0000-00-00
ok
6.5/10 By Vinnie on 0000-00-00
I bought my flyer a few years ago, and loved riding it. Since then I have gotten better, gained muscle, and surfed more often. It's a 6'4 and it seems too big for most days of surfing in NJ.

i want a really fast surfboard
6.5/10 By Jon on 0000-00-00
Im a short and stocky guy. 5'8 and currently weigh 200 lbs. I can fluctuate 185 to 210. I like to surf fast and do power turns. I'm heavy on my front foot. I mostly surf huntington beach and trestles.

Good paddler, stable....lacks speed - this is the biggest sticking point with this board. Good all rounder, but there are better boards out there...
