With that said I had no problem getting a 8'3 cola pintail in the same technology under enough of the wave to be able to get out. The pintail was a little less volume in the nose in the aspect of thickness and down railed.  The outlier was so buoyant at the nose that I could not even get the nose under. Thats more of what I mean. most boards in that shape / style are way more pinched in my experience.  I also have had plenty of 8+boards that are wide point back that I can duck dive.  Of coarse thats design. With all of this said I am interested in reviewing a \" long board\" in the thunderbolt tech.  Personally I think it is where I will really see more + then -.  Anyway thank you for the feedback and yes. good possibility the 7'6 would have been better, but I had to grab what I could get.\n        \n\n\nClick to expand...\n\n\n\n\nAh I see what you mean re: the shape. Also, I'm 215 lbs and believe me when I say being heavy enough to duckdive bigger boards is the only \"benefit\" to being an extra-large surfer. It mostly makes everything else harder haha. I've heard good things about the cola pintail as well. Give the Parallax a look, too. I rode a 7'6\" outlier all winter and decided I wanted a bit more float for smaller surf -I srsly considered the 9'1 parallax because it has the same speed hull as the outlier and it's so well-reveiwed, but went with the outlier at 8 ft cause I really connected with that shape."]], "columns": ["post_id", "thread_id", "thread_title", "post_number", "author_username", "post_date", "post_date_iso", "post_body"], "primary_keys": ["post_id"], "primary_key_values": ["206069"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8069699997577118, "license": "Public Domain"}
