dBoth I would say dj.
I just demoed the 26 inch in very very ordinary conditions. That bit of extra width and rocker made it a piece of cake compared to my 24 inch . The 24 is a rocket. And while it challenging but rewarding the width and lack of rocker makes it hard on the steeper waves.
but its a out and out elite racer
I manage not to fall in the 26' which hasnt been the case the last few days.
The 26 is my pick for bop/surfing
A very nice board.
im going to get one for the ordinary days and more
