MF Kuma Fish foam surfboard review

The MF Kuma Fish is a playful board – ideal for the days that your shortboard won’t work. We tested the foam board in big and small waves. It will take off in soft waves, but once you’re riding, the board really comes to life in steeper sections. Read our Mick Fanning Softboard review here.

Olaian 7’8 review

The Olaian 500 7’8 is a fun, refined foam surfboard that’s a whole lot more capable than the price suggests. The Decathlon designers took notice of customers feedback and improved the board compared to the previous models. The soft top gives a super fun riding experience in both small/choppy waves.

What seemed to be a horror period for sports, actually wasn’t so bad. All outdoor sports stores report above average profits. Boards are out of stock. We’re in the middle of a local surfing boom.

Is surfing a good workout?

Does surfing qualify as a good workout? Can you get enough exercise by becoming a surfer? Surfing is a great way to get in shape, both for men and women. Surfing tones your upper body and core. However, if you want to lose weight then you should opt for an additional cardio activity such as walking or cycling. Surfing doesn’t necessarily make you skinny or lean – it ads muscle.

Softech Mason Twin review

We all want to surf like Mason Ho! Now, for a lousy €300, we can. Right? We put the Mason Signature Model 5’6 twin to the test. Paddling into the wave was easy. The Softech Twin has plenty of volume which makes it perfect for chop waves, whitewater take-offs and small shorebreaks. The fish tail gives a nice, firm push right before you stand up. However, it also had some downsides. Read our soft top review here.

MF Softboards Beastie Surf School review

We at FoamieCrew love the foam surfboards Mick Fanning produces. This summer we tested the Surf School Edition soft top. Read here about our experience. The MF’s aren’t truly soft boards – they’re hybrids: Rigid boards wrapped in foam which makes them really stiff and really durable. The MF Surf School edition is both of those things AND is probably the board with the best grip I’ve ever surfed.
