Old board, but still haven't found anything better for onshore wave riding.

True that. I am loving it in side shore conditions too when the wind is too light for the board with a narrower tail to work properly.



And with onshore, in weak conditions, the shape of this board just keeps you going while a more conventionally shaped board might struggle.

Seems like the Goya Nitro might fill those shoes... I liked my Super-mini, but preferred the Fanatic Stubby as it was a bit more lively..

One more clip. I am probably keeping this board in my quiver like forever. So many amazing days. So lively and effortless.

Have you tried any of the Simmer boards?

I prefer the Simmer cortex over the Quatro mini. The cortex has really good glide when it is on the rail, and that enables one to make full rail turns even in onshore conditions. On the mini it is much more of a backfooted style of a turn.
