I am in the market for new board. Time for the Firewire Alternator to go.

What is everyone riding and why?

It would seem anything with a foil is popular.

Lost boards look really good imo.

Chilli Rare Bird
JS Black Box
JS Monsta Box??

Middle aged. Need volume! All-rounder, crappy northern beach breaks, occasionally DS, and planned trip to Maldives.

Thoughts appreciated

Life after THE ALTERNATOR
I am a happy Alternator (6'4) owner and had a same dilemma 2 years ago when turned 50.
Went to my local, picked up a shape I liked and gave him the dims I liked.
this www.okesurfboards.com/our-boards/new-boards/ellipse/
6'6-20 1/2-2 5/8
thought it would be just for the average surf, but
ended up riding it in all conditions + Bali's reefs and beachies.
Still got the Alternator though..just can't be bothered
