| 213026 | 9758 | CJ Nelson Outlier reviews? | 92 | skurp | Jul 13, 2021 | 2021-07-12T21:19:45-0400 | And the winner is... the 10in Parallax from flying diamonds! Tested it out this past month with the 9.5 Waterskate from DRD, and this 9in my neighbor gave me off an old longboard... and it wasn't even close. The 10in Parallax brings the board to life. I will say, however, I took the board out on a 1.5 ft mushburger day and the 9in fin worked well pivoting quick and staying high to salvage a ride. But in proper surf, board felt kinda dead with the 9in. Interesting because I used to have a 7'6" Outlier and preferred the stiffer 9.5in Water Skate fin in that board... and have no idea why the 10in won out in this one. I'm guessing its because the 7'6" was a little squirrelier and the stiffer fin gave it more hold? Without the Parallax fin the board just feels kind of lifeless. You could still feel some of that slippery hull goodness, but it felt like the volume was just turned down on everything I loved about surfing the outlier. Anyway - thought I'd share. This board is so friggin' fun in this setup. |
