Want to buy a used Jimmy Lewis SuperFrank
« on: January 11, 2019, 07:14:20 AM »
I am in the northeast (NYC and Massachusetts) and looking for either a 7'6" SuperFrank, or 8'0" SuperFrank lean.

I have a 7'6 wide in NH but I'm still enjoying it. I can't think of anything better to replace it at the moment.   :)

Jealous. I was thinking the 7'6" wide or the 8' lean would do the trick. Do you love the board? Seems like the perfect northeast board. Is it as stable and fun as its reputation?? I might just have to wait until I can afford it brand new.  Although I might then buy the Destroyer.

I surf in Gloucester, MA whenever I am up north. I assume the waves are very similar to New Hampshire...

I have the 8’6 Wide and my best board to date.  The Destroyer is getting good reviews on the other site and I’m definitely gonna look at it for my next SUP.  I only ride one board so I may have to sell the Super frank and NSP to fund it.

Yes, I love the board.

I bought it to get the most out of small mushy waves. It's fast and surprisingly stable for its length. It has the stability of boards a foot longer. Very maneuverable. It's good in waves up to about chest high. Over chest high, I switch to the 8'10 Flow.

The Destroyer looks nice. I'd love to try the 8'0.

Gloucester gets the same waves NH does pretty much.

Another good choice. I love mine. I was looking for an RNB used. No chance. I finally gave in and bought one new. Wish I would have done it sooner. Unreal board. I bought the 8'2.  I have only seen ones used that are under 8' or in the upper 8's.  And most were in california.  Good luck with your search.

It is hard demo boards around here (or even to see them) so I rely on the forums to help me to seek my next board. But this shape seems to me to be the way to progress in the east...

I'm the one in Charleston, SC with an 8' x 30", 115ltr Super Frank lean for sale.  Super fun board, $895.  Includes railsaver protection, hexatraction & 5 JL fins.  Would prefer not to ship, but possible if buyer arranges. Otherwise, can meet in SC for pickup. Shoot me a pm or email on left if anyone is interested.
