Hey Michael,
Here is a shot of me this morning at Cotton’s Point on my 5’8″ Zippifish…….and yes, I made the section.
Your boards fly !
Thank’s for the stick!

Zippi,
I have a refurbished Bing shaped by Dan Bendickson on my wall. We miss him. Tomorrow I’m gonna run out to ET and score one of yours. I look forward to it.
Mahalo!

~Steve,
I have a Bing shaped by Dan Bendickson on my wall as well.
He was a good friend and I miss him as well.

Hi Zippi,
I picked up my 5′11″ fish in January and have surfed it almost non-stop since. It’s worked great in everything from head high points to knee high beach breaks. It makes so many sections that I never could make before and is really fast. I love it!
Thanks!
Matt

I’m considering ordering a Grouper after talking to a satisfied Zippi owner. I’m 5′ 11″ and 200lbs. I’m usually surfing a 9′-6″ longboard or a 7′-0″ shortboard at Bolsa Chica, Huntington or Trails at San O. I’m a weekend surfer these days and consider myself an intermediate or better surfer.
What size Grouper would you recommend? 6’2″? 6’4″? And how much should I expect to pay for an epoxy?
Let me know what you think and how to best get a hold of you when I’m ready to order.
Thanks,
Karl
~Karl,
I think a 6’2″ would work best for you.
Give me a call.

Thanks,

Zippi,
How big can you take the Redline up to?
6’4″ or 6’6″?
What would the DIMS look like at that size?
Looking for a “fish” that will hold better than my standard fish (6’4″ x 21.75 x 2.75) when the local beachbreaks get steep and hollow. Dont like traditional shortboards. I am a very heavy front footed surfer. (6’1″, 200lbs)
Thanks for your time
Casey
~Casey,
The dims for the Redline are:
6’4″ x 22″ x 2 7/8″
6’6″ x 22 1/4″ x 2 7/8″
Please give me a call if you have any other questions.

Michael,
I am shopping for a new fish. I currently have a 6′ twin that is not as aggressive as I desire. I tried my friends Hynson 5’11” twinzer and it was much more aggressive. I am an intermediate surfer 5’11”, 180-190 lbs(depending on season). I surf Venice a few times per week so you have an idea of the waves I am riding. Which Zippi board do you recommend for me to get to the next level?
Thanks,
Vindawg
~Michael,
I believe a 5’9″, a 5’10”, or possibly a 5’11” will work for you.
I have demos of each of these boards.
Give me a call and you can check them out.
