I’ve been eyeing fantastic acid boards out for a while now. Tristan and his crew make some super sick boards. I love the descriptions of all the boards on his website, any one has any recommendations on which model? Or anyone has one. Please give me some feedback. Planning to ride it on some clean days on a reef break in Hawaii. Let me know :)

Big fan of the 8'4 V-Bottom. Super flat, fast, and fun. Really fun. It also turns on a dime, paddles surprisingly well, and can handle a variety of waves. If I ordered another, I'd ask for more foiled rails. You're welcome to give it a spin if you're ever in Southern California.

@mabella, what's your take on the speed hull and PMH?

Can’t comment on the different models but a mate has two and they are amongst the most beautifully constructed boards he or I have ever seen!

Hey guys, thanks for the responses! Keep em coming!!!

Im digging the speed hull, dismetric and progressive modern hull outline. They are all actually super sick. Was Reading on the v bottom make sense about turning quickly off the tail and go up front to trim and gain speed. Lol maybe should just get all of them.

@meatknot yes I do love my boards all foiled and knivey

I've got a dismetric on order. Weird one, fingers crossed.

Doesn't seem like anyone has one.
Sick!! Shaped out of France or done in US? Saw the pics on the website. That guy rip on that board on a good size wave! Interested in a hull that surfs well back side like the dismetric

I have a Parlementia hull 9’6”. Construction is next level. Only got a chance to surf it 1 time n some big waves this winter but it was a thrill to say the least. After many emails with Tristan we decided to make a glider version of the board, that has slight differences from his original design. Tristan is very knowledgeable and professional.

Tristan shaping at Pilgrim this summer.
Got excited about jumping on a deposit but then realized I have no wave big enough for a Parlementia haha
