Ultra Groveler?

I love solid waves. And perfect waves. And perfect, solid, hollow waves. Like everybody else. But there's something very very satisfying about surfing soft, knee high waves, if you have the right board, so I'm keen to find the ultimate Ultra Groveler.

A board that'll let you take off on fat, shitty waves, and connect impossible sections, on days when you wouldn't normally surf.

Joistik Cab Sav. Fireturd Sweet Potato 2. That sort of thing.

Ideas?

Waves like this (and no, that's not me thank you)

Agree, I have the H4's in thruster and quads, another excellent fin, best to use in more powerful, sucky, steeper reef/point set ups I found.

Do your H4 quads whistle at high speed ?
