THICC BOI REVIEW โ Honest Thoughts From a Biased Rider ๐๏ธ๐
Iโm honestly surprised. Biased, and still surprised.
I took the Thicc Boi out at Big Sky on runs it had no business being on. Absolute ice sheets, variable conditions, some patches of fun stuff. Thatโs the best way to test a board. Dreamy powder is fun no matter what. You want to put it through the paces.
Hereโs what I found:
At 148cm, the board is short, so itโs incredibly agile. But because itโs a Triple-wide, you get all that surface area back. It feels floaty, supportive, and stable in a way a bigger person wouldnโt expect from a 148.
First time Iโve gone back to our team after testing and said: absolutely no notes. Zero. Kinda cheating though because itโs built on the Duel platform. The Flat-to-Rocker profile people already love, same flex pattern, and one centimeter shorter than the 149cm, and a whole lot wider. This thing can carve like crazy.
For reference, Iโm 5โ11โ, just over 200 lbs, size 10 boot. The Thicc Boi is a Triple-wide, but so much shorter so you can really throw it around. Rides like a super agile shortboard surfboard, and zero problem getting to edge.
This is NOT a quiver killer. Exact opposite. Itโs a fun, surfy addition to the quiver. Even a couple inches of fresh feels insane with that surface area. Tons of float from the Flat-to-Rocker profile while being agile in tight trees and in the park.
We designed this for shorter riders carrying more weight who need float but donโt need a 160+ cm board. It works for that body type, but it also has a huge range. Christian Maas, whoโs 6โ7โ, rode it on the GILSON Getaway and loved it. Way more versatile than expected.
Tons of artwork options. Stoked the Thicc Boi is hitting the Mountain. Keeping one in my quiver. One of the most surfy, playful boards weโve made. ๐ค
