Rock-It 6' ALBERT soft top surfboard

Fun at a discount!
This board is way too much fun. I was looking at Catchsurf softies and was about to buy one before I found this product. Was worried the catchsurf stump would be too short and not float me (5'10" and 220, intermediate advanced surfer of 20 years). This is a better length for me and the swallow tail twin is great! I got it for messing around in the shorebreak and summertime fun but I'm already loving it. I find myself riding waves no one else is looking at and it feels good. The flexible fins will never slice you but of course don't give you the drive and return of a traditional fin. I threw some stomp pads on mine and they haven't come off. Super stoked!!! I might buy a second now before the prices go up! So much fun

Still developing surf skills and want to learn to shortboard
I rarely post reviews but felt it necessary to help others whom may be considering. I am trying to learn to ride a short board. Beginner to Intermediate skill level 7'4 epoxy funshape board owner, discovered the "foamie movement" after watching 'catch surf' squad on youtube (loved the new outlook/approach to surfing and having fun) and decided to purchase after getting feedback that the Rockit Albert can float a rider of my size and weight (I am 175-185 lbs and 6'2). I am very glad I did, this board floats me with extra volume to spare. Quality construction feels durable enough to take a beating in the surf, yet light enough to tote around like a big boogie board. I took it to the pool to paddle around as I am on the West coast of Florida with rare waves, but very much liked the balance and bouancy this board provides.Seems like it will be able to duck dive with some practice. I anticiapte this will preform well in waist high learning waves one the east coast of FL which are perfect for my skill level. Was concerned about bouancy being a taller and heavier guy on a smaller board. But I am very confident this will give enough push and will help increase my developing skills. Do yourself a solid and grab one! PS I have not seen the other colors in person, but I am glad I went with RED! The color is a brighter red than it looks online. Online it looks more like a brick red, in person its a bright popping high vis red. Plus you can call it your "Red Rockit" LOL! ;P One love from Florida!

Schwack Stick
Are you a shoobie looking to jump in to the SARF game? Or, are you a local legend thinking about the best board to get your new born to stand up on? Either way, this little nugget is right for you. For me, I've been trying to schwack the lip for 16 years from Arizona. I know what you're thinking, no way am I going to listen to a review from this Zonie Kook. But hear me out.Sometimes I think about screamin' eagles while poppin' wheelies on my dirt bike as I'm droppin in to the next close out. As I'm grabbing the rail for dear life I pause and think, damn I love this board. It's a perfect balance between great craftsmanship at a price point that won't make me flinch when looking in the face or an epic wipeout. The company customer service is great to boot. Of the 5 boards I have, this particular one has gotten the most use. I've literally lent it out for weeks at a time to kids just looking to have fun and adults looking for something different. Something I would never do with one of my McNabb's fish or egg, that would most likely be returned beat to hell. That being said, it comes back to my initial point, no matter what age or skill level, this board is fun and will put a smile on your face.For me I've chosen to throw some stomp pads on and I am thinking about tossing another fin on for more stability on my down turns. Which is another awesome point at the ability to customize this board to my liking. If all else fails and I ruin it, so be it, because at the end of the day another fun dinker is just one click away on amazon.

wont knock out your teeth!
Its great! No worries anymore about getting your teeth knocked out with a hard surfboard !! Its a little hard to surf unless you know what your doing and get at lest a 3 foot wave behind you ( if your an adult )....but definitely is a great xtra large boogie board. It also needs some grips added to it cause its super slippery even though its foam

Light weight
It is light weight to carry. Works for my 16 year old son. One of the two fins cracked on the 2nd day. It is more plasticky than rubbery like another foam board we own.

"Bubble" board (see pics)
Just recently bought the board. Took it out for the first time this last week, worked well. Rinsed it with fresh water, dried it and put it away. Checked it this morning to find 1 giant bubble on the board and 1 small bubble starting to form. Unacceptable. Will be returning.

A boogie board shaped surfboard
This surfboard shouldn't be labeled as a surfboard since it is just a boogie board. It could not hold my sister's weight of 100 lb or my own of 120. Both the fins came off in very calm waters even after they were screwed in. It did not come with any string either. It's a very big let down as we were excited to surf this vacation. Very disappointed.
