The Water Hog

As a regular shortboard surfer (5'10" 28L) I had always enjoyed performance LBs for fun surfs. I have an original 7'10" TufLite purchased around 2002. Over time I found I could ride this in nearly any conditions and perform at a high level. Relocating from central Florida to south OC Calif during the El Nino season, and not having my old WaterHog, watching others paddle into near flawless point surf day after day as I tried to jockey position on my SB with the reams of LBers, I opted to purchase the new updated epoxy 7'10" from SurfRide in Solona Beach as a BD present Jan 2016. Since then, it was game on as the board is light, fast, and able to make nearly any section, and positive feel on rail turns. Traction pad is a must if you want to up your game. You do not have to surf the board, as the perfect design with the full performance rear third, small tail block, and moderate tail and nose rocker (not a nose rider!) affords one to mind surf nearly any wave. This design gives meaning to "performance LBs." Well done Al/CIs!!!

Like what can you say, all stoke! Been eyeballing this for a while as a replacement/"step down" from my old heavy 9' 6" longboard, which must weight ~45lbs. I just picked up a 7'10" and not disappointed at all. This fits right in and this baby has drive; think big strong defensive linemen vs. fast lean outside lineman, sack! You can actually get your top to bottom action in, fast enough to beat sections and yes most importantly easily catches waves. Have ridden it twice, day one was 3'+ and following day was fading 2'+ beach break. The feeling I got on the bigger sets is this will perform well at solid chest to head high, can't wait to get it out in some solid juice. And have to say, I absolutely love the gun glassing as it gives the board the added weight for momentum...cheers love it!

I am 6' 1", 190 lbs & just bought a 7'10". Been thru 10 different boards before this. None fit all my needs until this one. Absolutely perfect for South Texas waves. Large H20 FCS thruster Fins. Performs excellent. I am gonna try the medium fins to see how much looser I can get her. Great design. Can't wait to get back on her for Tropical Storm Dollie.

I am 60 years old, 5'9", 175 lbs and ride a 7'4" Water Hog It has plenty of float for me. 8' is more than big enough.

I love this board so much its my go to board . In fact I reach for my 7'0" waterhog consistently even though I have 4 other Merricks and surf really good waves in Hawaii. My question involves the tail. I'm planning on custom ordering a smaller version of this board maybe around 6'4' to 6'6" . I used to have a 7'6" waterhog and it had a thumbtail vs the squash of my 7'0" . Is there a standard tail on the waterhog . Do you need to specify which type of tail when you custom order?

I ended up with a 7'10" with S2 fin boxes. It's working well. Great wave catcher. Also, it is a nice looking board. I've already had 3 compliments on "what a nice looking board" it is. I appreciate the input I received.

I typically ride short boards. I’m 6’1 215. Just spent a week in scorpion bay where we got really small waves. I have a 9’4” long board but think I would enjoy something more mid length fun board since I’m not really a long board type. I’m thinking the 7’4. Looking for something that can surf a gutless wave but can also be more performance on mushier waves of size. What would be your recommendations Thanks Paul

CI Surfboards

Hi Paul, The Water Hog would be a perfect model for what you are looking for. It has a lot more rocker than your traditional longboard especially in the tail so it turns very easily for a board this size. Anywhere from 7'0 - 7'10 would be good for what you are looking to get out of this board. 7'0 would be easiest to maneuver and 7'10+ would be easier to catch waves, so it depends on what you value more and how you want to balance those 2 aspects. The 7'4 would be a happy medium and good balance of paddle speed and maneuverability.

Hi. I turned 50 years old this year and finally started surfing. I'm 5'9", 140 lbs. Spent the last 3 months learning on an 8' softtop. I can consistently catch unbroken waves and am just ok at trimmimg. Having a hard time making turns...probably more my lack of skill but still want to transition to a hardboard. I've read some good things about the water hog. I know it will be a transition to a hardboard and I am looking for more of a longboard feel but definitely want to be able to make turns. What size would you recommend? Just can't decide on how many litres? etc... Thank you for taking the time to respond to me.

CI Surfboards

10.31.2019

Hi Mike, The Water Hog is a perfect board to transition to to help you improve. It paddles well and has more rocker than your traditional longboard to help you turn the board more easily. Don't worry too much about the exact volume you need for a board like this. Anywhere from the stock 7'0 to 7'6 would be a good size for you depending on what you are looking for. If you value paddle speed and stability more than how well the board turns go for the 7'6 or bigger. If you are a decent paddler and think you can easily sacrifice some paddle speed for maneuverability go for the 7'0.

Looking for some help with size and perspective on the Water Hog. I currently ride a 6'0" New Flyer when conditions permit, and take a generic 8'6" fun board out in Malibu or to Old Mans for some longboard fun. I'm looking for a board that splits the difference and is more maneuverable and can handle a little steeper wave than the 8'6". I'm considering a Water Hog vs a fish. Thoughts? And size suggestions? I'm 5'9", 160lbs in good shape and an intermediate surfer. Appreciate the help.

CI Surfboards

03.09.2019

Hi Jeff, Thank you for reaching out to us regarding a model suggestion. The M13 would be a perfect split between the New Flyer and your fun board. The M13 has great paddle power and can turn on a dime. It is also one of our more versatile models, which works in knee high to well over head surf. I recommend looking into a 6'8" x 20" x 2 3/4" = 41.9L of volume. I have included a link to the model, please see below. M13: https://www.cisurfboards.com/surfboards/legacy-lineup/the-m13/ If you have any questions give us a call at the factory and we can help you get the dimensions dialed 877.787.3124, we look forward to hear from you. Best Regards, CI Surfboards

Hi guys. 38 y/o male, 6’2”, 195 lbs, been surfing longboards since I was 13. Currently surf a 9’6” Hank Warner as my go-to board at Cardiff/Encinitas breaks. Looking for a smaller all-arounder that serves two purposes: easier to paddle out on the bigger days without getting smashed, and fits inside my VW golf for morning sessions on my way to the office (can store it in my car during the work day). Upper limit on the space inside the car is 8’0” I believe. My question is, what would be my Goldilocks length (just right!) for surfing 2-8 ft waves (can duck dive in the bigger stuff, but still paddles well in the smaller stuff)?

CI Surfboards

07.25.2018

Hey Sean, Thank you for your interest in the Waterhog. The Waterhog has a good amount of rocker which will work well in the bigger surf. I recommend looking into the 7'8" and 7'10" stock dimension. Both sizes will make it a lot easier to make it out past the break than your longboard and both should be able to fit comfortably in your car. The Goldilocks size might be the 7'10"!! Best, CI

Hey, Love the Waterhog. I'm riding a 9'0 Noserider most days. I'm 5'8; 145 lb; and 30 years old. Intermediate/Advanced. I'm looking for a waterhog to ride on the bigger days and the more punchier beach breaks. I love longboarding and want to keep a lot of glide and easy paddling. I guess I'm looking for a mini mal type board for max fun. Thanks to everyone at CI. -Phil

CI Surfboards

02.26.2018

Hey Phil, The Waterhog is suited for what you are looking for. The Waterhog is good for steeper waves due to its nose and tail rocker. If you have any questions let us know, and we will help you out. Oh, thanks for the shout out, everyone here appreciates it! Best, CI

09.11.2017

Hello, I loved my Water Hog 7'10, my first surfboard--until it broke yesterday. I could not NOT get a wave on it, especially at pointbreaks. I have surfed now for about two years, and am now at an intermediate level. My board broke yesterday in the sand, and on repair, it is ten pounds heavier! Hence, instead of crying, I want to buy a new board and take advantage of the occasion to downside.. Here is my question: I am 53, female, 5'4" and 120 pounds. I want a slightly smaller board to be able to go up and down the waves (more maneuvre), but I do not want to sacrifice floatability, stability, comfort and paddle power. Should I go for a 7'8" or a 7'6"? I surf only in Puerto Escondido at La Punta pointbeak, or Zicatela when the waves are small. I don't want to regret going down TOO small if if I get a less wide 7'6", but I also want to improve in my surfing and have more fun with the line! Thanks much for your advice! Karin

CI Surfboards

09.13.2017

Karin, great to hear you enjoyed your 7'10 Waterhog! At your height, weight, and advancing skill level you should have no issues with going down to the 7'6 Waterhog. You will notice it is shorter, but that should give you the little bit more mobility you are looking for. Best. CI

Alexis

07.25.2017

Hello, I ride shortboards most of the time but occasionally pull out a 9´1 longboard on small days. I am 5´8 and weight 158 lbs. I am considering changing my 9´1 for a smaller longboard looking for more maneuverability, easier transportation, but keeping the longboard feel and hang ten possibility. Do you think a Water Hog can deliver on what I am looking for and if so, what are the smallest dimensions your would recommend to be able to walk up and down the board. Thanks, Alexis

CI Surfboards

07.27.2017

Hi Alexis- Yes, the Waterhog is exactly the model you are looking for! Dimensions are largely going to be based on your skill level, but the stock 7'10 should provide you with plenty of foam for what you are looking for. If you feel really comfortable in your surfing skills you might even be able to get away with a little smaller board. Best. CI

Hi, I've been riding a 8' wave storm soft board for a while now, and I want upgrade to a water hog. I am 5'6 and weight 123 lbs. What board dimension(s) do you recommend for me? I would still like to have a little bit of the longboard feel as well.

CI Surfboards

06.26.2017

Hi Nick- Try out the 7'6 or 7'8 Waterhog, 7’6 x 21 1/2 x 2 3/4 51.0L - 7’8 x 21 3/4 x 2 3/4 52.7L. Both boards will work great for you and allow you to catch plenty of waves. The more refined characteristics of the Waterhog will really allow you to maneuver the board better and improve your surfing! Best. CI

NIta

05.18.2017

Hi. I am an intermediate surfer in San Diego. I usually surf at Sunset Cliffs or Swamis. Presently, I have an 8'6" x 21 1/2 Performance Longboard shaped by John Kies. I like the board a lot, but it is heavy and a bit wide for me. I enjoy the glide of a longboard and I want to be able to knee paddle the board. I am 5'2" and 102lbs. What size and construction of Waterhog would you recommend for me?

CI Surfboards

05.19.2017

Hi Nita- The Waterhog would be great for you. If your main focus is the knee paddling, you would probably want something closer to the 7'10 range, but if you were too to focus more on weight and size you could very easily ride the 7'0 and still get great glide. One option for a lighter board might be custom order one in EPS or even possibly the Tuflite construction. Best. CI

Scott

05.02.2017

Would appreciate any advice for 54 year old intermediate surfer, 6'2, 177 lbs. Surfing on Lake Michigan. Is the Waterhog a good choice for paddle and stability in fresh water? Looking to upgrade from a 8' 7S Superfish. Suggestions for size?

CI Surfboards

05.02.2017

Hi Scott- Yes, the Waterhog is a great option for paddle, stability, and maneuverability in any water type. Depending how comfortable you are on your current surfboard and if you are looking for serious increased maneuverability you could size down to about a 7'6, if you are looking for similar float and stability to your Superfish we recommend sticking up in the 8' range. Even at the 8' range, the Waterhog will have great maneuverability because of its pulled in tail and more refined rails. 7’6 21 1/2 2 3/4 51.0L 7’8 21 3/4 2 3/4 52.7L 7’10 21 3/4 2 7/8 53.8L 8’0 22 2 7/8 58.1L Let us know if we can help with anything else. Best. CI

I have an 8' soft top and I am looking to transition to a more agile fun board. I'm riding Santa Cruz point and beach breaks. I'm 5'7" 175 lbs. I love the idea of the INT boards that CI has but I'm torn between a 7' Waterhog INT and a 6'6" Mini X INT. I'm hoping to make shortboard-ish turns eventually which leans me towards the Mini, but I want to make sure dropping from an 8' longboard to a 6'6" isn't too difficult of a learning curve. I've heard riding a short board after a longboard is like learning how to surf again. Do you think I would outgrow a 7' Waterhog too quickly, or does it still provide enough turning ability to have as much fun as the guy in the Mini video? http://www.cisurfboards.com/minixint/ 7' Waterhog INT or 6'6" Mini INT, which would you recommend for a transitioning longboarder?

CI Surfboards

05.02.2017

Hi Phil- The 7'0 Waterhog hybrid softtop is a great transition board from your current 8' softtop. We do not currently make a 6'6 Mini or else that would be an equally as good option, the stock 6'2 Mini might be a little short for you in the transition. The added responsiveness of the hybrid technology as well as the pulled in tail will let you perform turns as well as catch waves. Great thing is, if you ever do outgrow the performance aspects of the Waterhog it will never lose its place in your quiver, the Waterhog is a great small wave machine! Best. CI

Chris

03.25.2017

I've been using a 7'10" funboard for the past few years on Long Island. I'm 5'7", about 140 lbs, and would consider myself an intermediate-level surfer. I'm looking for a board that's a bit more maneuverable, but I love the longboard feel. What size Waterhog would you recommend for me?

CI

03.27.2017

Chris, You are going to love the Waterhog. Probably the most manueverable funshape you can buy. 6'10" to 7'2" would still give you the paddling and glidey feel of a long-ish board (especially at 140), smooth turns and trimming. Any shorter then you start to try and "shortboard" turn and it's a different approach.

Ryan

12.27.2016

I'm so excited, I just ordered a 7'4" Wter hog with FCS2 fin box, I am 5"8" 200lbs and was wondering which fin you recommend? I was looking at the FCS II Carver PC Carbon Tri Set in Large? I am solid intermediate surfer and I primarily surf Carlsbad -Oceanside, CA

CI Surfboards

12.29.2016

Hi Ryan- Congrats on the new Waterhog! It looks like the Carver fins are designed for open face waves and/or good point/reef breaks and might work depending on what types of waves you are riding in Carlsbad and Oceanside. We recommend the large Al Merrick 4.75" template for the Waterhog. You can find them in FCSII here Best. CI

Brian

12.26.2016

Surf the Jersey shore and it gets pretty heavy here in the winter with some decent barrels. I'm 6 feet and wait fluctuates between 190 and 210. I've surfed longboards for 3 years and an 8 foot 7s superfish. I want to step down to something like v3 rocket or comparable. You think a 7'2 will help with the learning curve. I know it's designed for something mushier than barrels but can I use it for that too? Let me know.

CI Surfboards

12.29.2016

Hi Brian- Thanks for reaching out. You are correct, the Waterhog is not specifically designed for barrels and while you could get barreled on the Waterhog...we think a better option would be the M-13. The M-13 paddles extremely well but has a pulled in tail that will really allow to surf in a wide variety of conditions. You can see a 7'2 here: http://channelislands-store.mwrc.net/en/product.php?product_id=65650 Let us know if we can help dial you in anymore. Best. CI

CI Surfboards

11.18.2016

Hi Kristoffer- Thanks for reaching out. We recommend the large 4.75 2 tab Al Merrick template from Channel Islands. If you are looking for an FCS branded fin we recommend the large 4.75" GAM Al Merrick template from FCS for use with your Waterhog. Let us know if there is anything else. Best. CI

Robert

09.06.2016

I would describe my surfing level as an entry level intermediate and I'm currently riding a 6'8" Torq in mostly waist to shoulder high, Northern California beach break conditions. Getting frustrated with missing more waves than I catch and have been seriously considering a Water Hog in either a 7'2" or 7'6". I'm 5'9" and 165 lbs and curious on a recommendation between the two sizes?

CI Surfboards

12.07.2016

Hi Robert, Sorry for the delayed response. Our model, The Water Hog is great for catching waves, while maintaining maneuverability. The Water Hog stock dimensions for 7'2" and 7'6" follows. 7'2" x 20 1/2" x 2 5/8" with the volume of 44.3L 7'6" x 21 1/2" x 2 3/4" with the volume of 50.9L The dimensions change a lot between the two sizes, especially the volume. Being 5'9" and 165lbs the 7'2" will work well for the conditions you stated. The 7'2" will be more responsive, While the 7'6" will have more paddle power. I hope you find this useful, have a great day!!!

Patrick

08.29.2016

I'm 6'2, 160 pounds and an intermediate to advanced surfer. I mostly ride a 8' Wavestorm Soft Top and have a high wave count and can move the board down line pretty well. I am looking for something that I can do a little more maneuvers with, but still have the long board feel. What would you say is the best size for that?

CI Surfboards

09.02.2016

Based on the information provided, we recommend the stock 7'0 Water Hog. Another option to look at is the Hoglet!

Rob

03.20.2016

Could you explain why this board is not recommended for beach breaks?

CI Surfboards

03.23.2016

Longer boards prefer more of a lined up wave rather than a quick dumpy beach break. It does have a good amount of rocker and a pulled in tail so it can definitely handle those types of waves, but a lined up wall is better suited for this model.

02.09.2016

I would like to buy this board as my first board (absolute beginner). At 6 foot exactly and 75kg would a 7 foot 6 board be a good choice? Hoping to get a good balance of newbie friendly but not so big I outgrow it too fast. Also I have no idea in the online store what the regular, S1 and S2 versions mean?

CI Surfboards

02.09.2016

The stock 7'6 or 7'8 would be a great fit! The S1 and S2 is an internal designation in our operating system to keep of fin systems. S1 denotes a specific combo of dims and the FCS fin system. S2 is the same dims, but with Future fins. Odd numbers denote FCS and even, Future.

Hi, i bought a 7`last year and i love it. I'm a 5'11 190 pounds really average surfer and find it pretty fun to ride. It catches waves really and turns well. Still is really playfull for a mini longboard. But i would love to know what is the volume on a 7'? Is the volume calculator accurate? Thank you

CI Surfboards

07.24.2014

the calculator should be accurate yes

Barry

07.06.2014

I want to get back into surfing after a 10 year absence. I have an old longboard (a 9'3" Wardy made in Laguna Beach in the mid-1960's) which has no leash and I don't want to alter the board because it is a classic. I want to move toward a shorter board, but figure I need to get used to surfing again before I can do that or my learning curve will be longer. I am 5'8" and weigh 155. I am 58 years old now so I don't have the same power as a younger guy, so plenty of float and stability will be important for me. I was thinking of a Waterhog in the 8' length. Does that seem about right? My old Wardy is heavy and lacks today's improved technology but it still felt like I was steering a truck. Your thought?

CI Surfboards

07.06.2014

Barry, Good choice, an 8' Hog will feel like a skateboard compared to your old board and still will have plenty of volume to catch anything

Jade

06.30.2014

Hey, I'm 5'5" and weigh around 100 lbs. I grew up surfing longboards in HI, but have been living on the east coast for a couple yrs and want to get back at it. I've been kicking around on a board that is way too thick for me, and was wondering what the best dimensions (l, w, thickness) would be for me. I prefer cruising, but have to carry the board on the train, so shorter is a necessity. Mahaloz!

CI Surfboards

CI Surfboards

Ginner, This is it, the waterhog. Most will get a foamy (all foam board)for the first couple months, then you can move on to a hard board like the waterhog.

Looking to paddle back out after many years out of the water. I'm 53 years old and would be surfing in So-Cal from Bolsa to LaJolla Shores. I'm looking for something that will be easy to get into the wave. Is this board a good choice and if so what length? I"m 6'3" / 240 lbs. Thanks!

Hi there, I have a 7'2 Waterhog and its so far one of the best board I have when i don't feel like riding my shortboard, I'm thinking to order one in smaller size, could you please advise dimension for a 6'2 and 6'3 so I can speak with the CI shop here in Sydney (Onboard shop) Regards Mick

CI Surfboards

10.30.2013

Mick, This is wide open, but pretty much keep it the same as the 7'2"! Thats what people have done here and they turn into great little boards.

Ryan

10.29.2013

I wanted to know if this is the right first board for me. I am a beginner surfer and looking for a board that would good to progress on. I am about 5'10''/11'' and 135lbs. I have read that the waterhog is a epoxy bled construction, how is that different from an epoxy board.

CI Surfboards

10.29.2013

Ryan, The waterhog is available in all sizes with tradition hand-built PU/PE or select sizes in molded epoxy sandwich "tuflite" construction. Not sure what "bled" is but you can also get custom hand-laid epoxy which is a little more expensive but not common for the Waterhog model. GREAT board to learn on!

Garrett

10.23.2013

Does this board have the ability to at least sneak 5 on the nose? Looking at potentially getting this in a 6' version.

CI Surfboards

10.23.2013

Garrett, for a good surfer yes, and they shrink down to small sizes great.

Maximo Fagotto

Hi, I am 6.23 Ft and 187,39 lb. intermediate-advanced surfer. my idea is just enjoy the ride, walk the board, do some noseride and hang ten. i live in Argentina and here we have very small waves...so Which size i need for that board? thank you very much

CI Surfboards

10.18.2013

Maximo. The Waterhog is not a noserider... but just based off your size you could ride any size from 7'0" to 8'11"

AC

10.09.2013

I am 6'9" 240 lbs and was an intermediate surfer 15 years ago when I moved away from the coast. I am looking to get back into surfing and was wondering if this board would be a good fit and the length I should look for. No shame to ride up to even a 10' board if that is what is best for me. Just want to enjoy myself. Surfing primarily in the malibu area.

CI Surfboards

10.10.2013

AC Great fit and your right not hard in going big although an 8' or 8'6" should be plenty. Welcome back to surfing.

Aiden, Not as easy as a 10' softtop but still a good stable starting point for 185lbs.

07.14.2013

Hey good day! wondering if you do this model as a single? Also, how does the 2+1 format set up as a single fin go in small to med. surf? ( for the models 6'10 thru 7'4 say) I'd like to comment all of the ci boards ive had i loved,

CI Surfboards

07.15.2013

Mike, We have had people order the Waterhof as a 2 + 1, but dont have feedback on the board as a single fin. The shape has been a favorite of so many over the years hard to imagine it not working as a single, just more pivoty.

Hello, I started surfing last year and I have a 6' 4" flyer, but it's too small. I'm 5'6" 110 lbs. and need a longer board. Would a 7' be a good length or should I go bigger? Thanks

Grayson, at 110lbs - a 7'0" to 7'6" WaterHog should be enough stability to get you going much quicker than the 6'4" - Any bigger will be easier but get boring quick CI

If i'm 5'11 and 185lbs, which length should i get? Thanks!

Rick, Any size will work for you as volume measurements are more applicable to shortboards. Just keep in mind the longer it is the more waves you get but the harder to do manuevers/turns. CI

Would you make a custom waterhog shorter then 7'? Thanks!

Hey Zach, yes we have made them custom as short as 6'3" even. They work great at shorter sizes.

Hi BJ, The hog would be a super fun board in EPS and would be a great hybrid/noserider on those days where other boards tend to bog. If getting in early, swooping the smallest waves, and walking the nose is you MO, then I would lean towards an 8'0. Glad the other boards have treated you well. Thanks for coming back. Stay stoked!
