AR MALIBU XF - SUNRISE POLISH
Love this board. So glad I bought it, and got a great price from ALOHA! I have a McTavish 9’6” Noserider, glassed fin. I find it very heavy, unstable and hard to turn. And McTavish stuffed up my custom colour, as well as taking more than 5 months to make it because they stuffed up the first blank, they lied repeatedly about the delays, broke promises about timeframes, and if that’s not bad enough, when making the second blank they prioritised other orders over mine for more important people (well known surfers rather than just normal average Aussie customers like me). McTavish treated me like shit and they made me crap board - with the wrong colours and panels - and it cost me 3X more than the McCoy which is a way better board. The McCoy All Rounder XF Malibu (9’2”) is really light and super strong (XF is 👍), incredibly stable, a great paddler and easy wave catcher, dynamic and fast it gets me across sections with ease and into floaters and has great trimming. I am not carving it yet bcos I’m not a great surfer. But this board will definitely carve when my skills improve. So - imo - don’t buy a McTavish. Total ripoff, arseholes to deal with and awful boards. Just get yourself a McCoy XF or any other Epoxy EPS all rounder from a quality brand.
Standard of finish exceeded expectations. Have owned 9 genuine Australian made McCoys over the years; this xf build quality matches a couple & easily betters the others.
