A superb board for the heavier dudes when the waves are small.
I got this board because my beloved cheap and cheerful fish came to the end of it's life. Also, after 3 days of epic chest-to-overhead-high surf, the east coast swell faded and it was time to bust out a grovler.
Now we're cooking with the Sweet Potato. This is the most fun, fastest, manoeuvrable board I've ever ridden in small surf. It catches waves like my 9ft longboard and rides faster than the fish. I rode it in 1ft knee high to 4ft chest high waves and could not believe how easily it paddles into waves.
