287297 16398 CI log dropped. Looks great to me 1 hullogfish Jul 19, 2023 2023-07-19T11:40:59-0400 Involvement type outline and the fin looks similar to a Peto flex but with more base.
287301 16398 CI log dropped. Looks great to me 2 jory Jul 19, 2023 2023-07-19T12:07:39-0400 I think with Devon and WR involved it has to be a good board. I really like the look of it, its right alng the lines of the logs that have been inspiring me lately Jury is still out on CI glassing generally though. The euro ones arent often that good and likely to be equivalent of 2000 bucks over here.

Looks great to me 3 this_strange_wave Jul 19, 2023 2023-07-19T12:29:53-0400 I love Devon, and Wayne is an absolute legend, obviously, but I’m skeptical, particularly at the price point it’s being offered at. For that kind of money, you could easily support a hand shaper or snag a board that’s been hand shaped to some extent. For some reason, I’m just put off by the idea of churning out mass produced “logs.” I’m sure it’s a well-designed board and will satisfy plenty of people but I can’t help but feel a bit “eh.”

Plus my current UK shaped log is almost certainly quite similar and i cant fault that,. I like to think it represents a good option as something i could rent on a trip somewhere...

You have a rad hand shaped board custom to you that is unlike anyone else's in the world. And you're salty of machine made boards that are glassed with tissue paper? That said, any idea how much more one from Wayne would cost? The CI is around $1700 with tint. Seems like a no brainer to wait and get one from WR at that price.

I did not see any hangups in that video. Its fast too I am sure it will be available in Thunderbolt eventually. On the Japanese site there are a bunch of boards available from CI that you don't get to see here

Looks great to me 21 fluidworks Jul 21, 2023 2023-07-21T03:11:36-0400 So they will glass heavier for a custom from what CI said, but what got me was just how shitty the QC was for the one I saw locally. Fit and finish looked rough, with a very sloppy asymmetrical fin patch. Not great for the price, especially.
287506 16398 CI log dropped. Looks great to me 22 Planktom Jul 21, 2023 2023-07-21T03:14:36-0400 You have give credit to @RyanLovelace for at least trying to differentiate between handshaped and machine cut, including pricing relative to that. Wayne should be able to command top money for his handshapes, the CIs should be significantly more affordable. The thing that should remain static between the two is build quality, as humans need to get involved here no matter what (flashy tints and pins excepted - I know there are a few people who can really step up this side of things for a premium) Ryan's LM label is made by the top guys here in the UK, no corners cut. Surely CI can sort it out too..

If you watch the old clip of him surfing the bu on his Thomas Keeper and Hi Pro Log, the surfing is pretty indistinguishable from how he is riding the same wave/size the CI log in this new footage. I'm guessing that those Thomas boards are likely traditional weight. Disclaimer-I'm often wrong about stuff.

I dunno, I reckon the CI draws similar lines to the keeper and the footage of him on his Rich Model D but to me It looks like iCI is a little lighter?

Thomas told me that is standard glass schedule is 8+6 on top and 8 on the bottom.

No I reckon that fits with how it looks like the CI is lighter to me and Devon's keeper was stock glassing 8+6 So looks a bit heavier in the footage.

I have 3 boards with this schedule between 9' and 10'6 and two glassed by Laresse laminations and one by Michael Miller and they are holding up excellently. I'll admit I don't know the foam density on each. So, seems to be more at play here than just the the weight of the glass.

Nothing more comfy than your own heel dents. IIRC, CI did a quasi-surftech endeavour for a short stint (Placebo??) and could even scan the heel dents into the program lol To paraphrase Robbie Page, 'as long as the magic side (the bottom) is clean, then who cares about anything else?' Pretty much all the Jim Banks fish I've had have dimpled decks, and pretty much all of them were magic too.

287733 16398 CI log dropped. Looks great to me 45 jory Jul 23, 2023 2023-07-23T15:33:43-0400 It did occur to me that the revolutionary “low apex” rail might be pretty much the 60/40 rails Donald put on the model T’s but what do I know? Like I posted above, I actually think the shape and foil looks really good and on the money for modern “log” design. Having watched a lot of Devon’s surfing over the years, he’s surfing great on it and it looks more lively under his feet than the keeper or the model d does ( but I also think you can clearly see the Thomas influence in there and also it definitely could be argued it’s the refined evolution of his takayama model from the seedling era)
287888 16398 CI log dropped. Looks great to me 46 Glide&Flow Jul 25, 2023 2023-07-25T12:01:27-0400 This is the clip I was using for comparing his surfing the Thomas models to the CI. Wish there was less slo mo in the Thomas boards clip. I know I'm splitting hairs probably, but I would argue that his surfing is marginally more lively on the CI than the Thomas boards. I really think this is just an effort by CI/Devon to try to follow up on the financial success they had with the CI mid, but I just think it's gonna fall flat. That CI mid had such a larger potential market. There just isn't the same throng of people that are wanting to take up traditional turny-involvement style logging, and for those that do, there are a gagillion really good board options already out there and probably wouldn't want a CI branded board. We'll see how it goes. That fin though, fuck yeah!

Logs don’t have to be super heavy. These modern logs benefit from slightly lighter weight as they allow more dynamic surfing. As a small and light person, I’ve moved away from heavy boards over the last few years and it’s helped my surfing definitely. That said, in Europe there have been a fair few CI and Christenson from the same factory with very fragile glass jobs which is what would give me pause…..

I have 3 boards with this schedule between 9' and 10'6 and two glassed by Laresse laminations and one by Michael Miller and they are holding up excellently. I'll admit I don't know the foam density on each. So, seems to be more at play here than just the the weight of the glass. Click to expand... Context is important. Ryan is citing U.S. Blanks densities. Arctic Foam is consistently harder foam than USB.... I shape both. As far as who glassed what: Yater regularly does 6/6 & 6 as di I for longboards. Both glassed by Haakenson...... durable w/no issues. Yater probably is getting USB, the majprity of mine are Arctic w/some USB. No issues.

Well one factor (that has probably already been stated by others but I jumped in midstream) is that they are most likely using very close tolerant blanks needing very little machining, making the glass job pretty much right over the crust of the bread rather than the soft doughy middle. And if it's a heavier weight than standard foam, factor that in too. But as somebody said earlier, where's the soul in it? To me the goal should be an $800-$900 spare board to use as a backup should your main rides be out of commission, crowded spots/weekends/Halloween days, loaning out to friends, etc. Not to say it can't perform, and I'm sure there some who would prize it as their daily, but there's a reason mass market goods are generally less expensive - it's called supply and demand.

This group will likely have no hang-ups over machine shapes (most may probably be reassured by this fact) and the CI branding will help pull them in.
316306 16398 CI log dropped. Looks great to me 62 takedown Jun 10, 2024 2024-06-09T20:40:49-0400 I'm sold on this board. I've been in a constant pursuit of learning how to noseride and while I've had moments where I've put it all together, it's not been consistent until I got on to the CI Log. It could be the perfect timing of finally figuring it out and switching boards, or maybe it's the fact that I got the 10' so I'm getting on many more waves and it's more stable for my weight at that length, whatever it is I'm loving it. I've been a fan of Wayne Rich's shapes since I got on a CJ x Wayne Haven in thunderbolt. I remember meeting a guy at San O last year when the lower lot was closed and there were only a handful of people down there and he was on a Model D from Wayne, one of the prototypes for the CI Log and he couldn't stop raving about what it did for his surfing. How I came to getting this board was pretty wild. I've been on the search for a shape / shaper that will shape a blank, unglassed, and ship it off to Carbon Compact to be made into a two piece travel board. Several shapers I've asked said absolutely not, almost like they were insulted that I'd ask (too bad for them, it would have meant the sale of 2 boards). One requirement I had was that I needed to try the shape first and really make sure that I liked it before investing in the travel board. Marc Andreini has his boards converted to two piece and he's been really happy with Carbon, so I first reached out to him about having a board done. The problem is I have no way to try his shapes and I'm not willing to just cross my fingers because the cost at the end of the day is not low. Marc suggested I get a shape from Carbon, but again same problem with being unable to try out the shape. Flying to New York to give it a go, seemed like too much when I could find a shape here that I like. Fast forward to last month and I took a 2 week road trip to SoCal. I started out with a quick session at C St and in the middle of the session Devon paddled out. There were quite a few other guys in the water one of which I struck up a con…

Over blue is decent but will likely dent a fair bit and delam in a year or two under heavy use. Click to expand... I agree. That being said, I've always found Arctic Foam to be harder foam than U.S. Blanks. Both are quality foamers & USB has a deep catalog much more hand shaper friendly. As far as files, I've had enough time now to develop a love hate relationship with the CNC facility. Scaling is only partly successful, and depending upon the competency & integerity of who is cutting them, they can end up. great............ or, a complete bummer. There is an issue with scaleability and rocker, which is the key most ingredient in any surfboard. I get why Ryan is offering a limited range of certain 'magic' sleds machined in order to control the original handshaped design integrity. I learned my lesson the hard way and ended up with a chainsaw and lo$$eS......

With all due respect to Wayne, he's a fantastic shaper, but there are plenty of other shapers I'd choose these days. For me, once a shaper licenses their designs for royalties, I lose interest in their work. I prefer to support shapers who are keeping things true to their roots and helping out local glass shops.

When did we carve it out, and sell it to the lowest bidder?" It either chimes for you in the context of surfing too, or it doesn't. Wayno, Britt and Britt's team are not selling out, but they are a good example of how you don't need to go outside of surfing/surfers to scale up and offer a quality design that can be customised and enjoyed in multiple places around the world Randy, Slater, Walden etc...
