213603 7331 Those parallel railed, wide tailed logs... 88 jory Jul 17, 2021 2021-07-17T10:30:35-0400 RockyIsland said: Cheers for that Jory appreciate the advice. I am really enjoying Ben and CJs approach to blending Logging with HP so am keen to try one. How would it compare to a Model T as that would be the only wide/parallel rail log I have ridden and I have never owned a dedicated nose rider. The last 10 years I have surfed wide point back pulled in nose Involvement logs but as I am getting older and slower thought I might try one of these as I like the idea of a slightly pulled in nose template and a dedicated nose rider. I understand you have a Dead Kooks Nausea of which I have a had a go on a mates. How would that compare to the Cherry Picker? THanks again Click to expand... I only had a couple of small waves on it so it's a limited experience. the model t is quite different. The T and to an extent the nausea are roll bottom traditional style and so you can kinda surf them passively just wandering up and down and leaning into turns. The picker feels more like a progressive mal In that it rewards a more active aggressive input into turning it. Does that make sense? it's kinda designed by someone who grew up on 2+1s surfing contests and surfing in a progressive way but as something that will now allow him to surf to the more traditional criteria without feeling too slow and passive / pedestrian. Does that make sense?
