Just picked up new 9' 1 carbon Allwave this morning. Had an hours surf on it and loved it. Different to the Prowave and from my point of view at 65 years young a bit more forgiving. Changed the fins to my Shapers quads which loosened it up a lot. Great colour.
Seriously nice looking board! The green and blue looks the $hit!
Funny thats what I thought when I saw the brochure and it's actually a nice colour when you see it for real. A lot more blue than the false colours that the camera shows.
Yes that's a sweet looking Allwave! the blue and green is so eye pleasing!
thanks for posting and keep us updated on how it 's working for you
Got my eye on the new 8'5" x 32".....
Nice looking board Rockman!
Keep us posted after you have some sessions on it.
AkeG... ha ha.... same wavelength... I ordered the 8'5 yesterday.... now I have a few months to drop to a suitable weight.
I thought about the 8'11 Carbon....for guaranteed ease.... but the allure of a completely new shape was too much
We really need to meet up for a surf.... same board paths for the past 2 years.... I'll be in Maine at the end of the month.
Mr. Magnet.... try to get some action shots please !

Ha Ha What Can I say? Fanatic makes great boards for the conditions we see! Have spent many,many sessions on Allwaves (owned a couple)in every sort of conditions....If any sub-9 would work well for me up here it would be an Allwave template. Just love the dims on the 8'5"!
That's providing I ever get off of my Prowave.....!!
Did you order a Carbon?
Give a head's up when you're going to be in the neighborhood!
9.5 LTD for me, picked it up Saturday and went out in less then ordinary surf as I just had to try it,
(I had 9.6 allwave for 3 years but it meet a sad end a few weeks ago)
The 9.5 was very stable, easy to paddle and surfed better so that’s a thumbs up from me.
oh someone said it looks good to
Hi rockmagnet
Can you give us an update on the boards performance after couple of months with it?
Hi board is very smooth is the best way to describe it.Its very different to the prowave and a bit more forgiving. Turns well but I would put that down to the quad fins. I tried a tthruster set up but did not last long before going back to thruster set up. Front 7 and rear 5 (shapers fins) .
Very happy with board and recomend . Paddles easy and I catch a lot more than I miss .
