Wonder what Parko was thinking when he saw this?
Its like taking a mates car and winning a race in it. Or maybe getting a speeding ticket. lol

What was the size Parko is riding in the clip? I'm about same size and weight...looks sick.

Parko rides a 5'8 x 19 1/2 x 2 1/4

What are the main differences between the new Blak Box and the Nitro? I love the Nitro for small waves, so I am just wondering whether to switch when it is time to replace it.

im 6 feet tall and 85kg what size do you think would be the go?

I'm 6'0 and about 155. What size would you recommend for me. Also, where can I get a Blak Box in Florida or where can I order one online at?

6 foot and 85kg....try a 5'11 or 6'0 my friend. we generally say to ride them 4 inches shorter than your normal shortboard.

6 foot and 155 pounds... you might want to look at a 5'10.. you are tall but lean, so I think this is a good option.

If you need any of the new JS models in Florida we have them... Blak Boxes on the way!

love the new board

What do u recommend for small rampy beach break; the nitro or the blak box?

I ride a vx5 as a thuster,what differences will i find between the vx5&blak box?

JS! I just bought a 6'2 " parko signature board here in kirra, awesome board, took a big drop in size for me but is the right size for my height and weight (6ft, 71kg) Cant decide between tha Black box or the King pin right now, any advice on which to go for first and size's? It's for riding on the goldie and I'm still kinda a begginer. Bye the bye, Thanks for an awesome board dude

im 5'5 and 50 kg what size board sould i go for

I'm also unsure of the main differences between a VX5 and a Blak Box. Can you please help by defining the characteristics/differences of each in comparison JS?

hi, just bought a 5'11 blak box, i'm 80kg and 6'3 , what fins would you recommend. i like the k3's on my short board.

Going to give a 5'10 a whirl. What's the glass layup for the stock epoxy ones? Thanks in advance.

Stephen, sorry for the delay. Stoked to hear you enjoy your Jordy, the boys at KS know their stuff. If you want a board thats suitable for most conditions thrown at you then I would say go the Kingpin, we usually say drop 3-4 inches but as you are semi beginner you would only want to drop around 2-3 inches, however as you are only light I would say a 5'11". This gives you the option of 3 fin or quad setup and holds up in size, whereas the BlakBox is predominately for smaller sloppy conditions. Hit me back if you have any more Q's. Cheers

Josh, wow your super light buddy. Although we don't have a 5'4" listed in our BlakBox model plan, we do a 5'4 x 18 3/4 x 2 upon request

Hey , i am 5'10 and 65kg what would u recommend? Cheers

Im 190cm and 80kg and was wondering what you would recommend for the most high performance size for me? i was thinking 6'1, though 2 1/2 seems fairly thick

Hey Jake - Thanks for your enquiry. We say to drop 4-6 inches, your ability level will really determine what length you go for - but given your height and weight I would be recommending the 5'10 for an intermediate to advanced surfer. Parko is the same weight as you but 2 inches shorter and he rides a 5'8, so I would say around the 5'10. Cheers JS

Hey Jason

I`m 186cm - 88kg
Looking for a board for shoulder-headhigh + waves.

Im surfing a SA KB 6'0 -20 3/4- 2 5/8
for slop

& my standard thruster
6`3-19 3/8 - 2 1/2

Im hesitating between a 6`2 or 6`3 jordy or occy.

Cheers M

Hei JS, me being 5'10 and 62kg and intermediate surfer, what size of the BlakBox would you recommend? Thanks.

Hei JS, me being 5'10 and 62kg and intermediate surfer, what size of the BlakBox would you recommend? Thanks.

Hi RENE - I'd say a 5'8 mate JS

Hey Jason I`m 186cm - 88kg Looking for a board for shoulder-headhigh + waves. Im surfing a SA KB 6'0 -20 3/4- 2 5/8 for slop & my standard thruster 6`3-19 3/8 - 2 1/2 Im hesitating between a 6`2 or 6`3 jordy or occy. Cheers M

hey just wondering what size for the blak box you would recommend for me, im 6'4 - 93kg. I was looking at the 6'3 one. would u agree? cheers

Hey Nick - it really depends on your ability level and what you are currently riding. If you get give me these details I can provide you with a more accurate answer. Cheers mate JS

hey.im not like a high performance surfer, i mainly just cruise, no fancy stuff. im currently riding a 6'2 which is too thin for me though. thats why i want to get something a bit thicker.

hey JS, i've got a 6'0" konfusion and love that board. it's new and have only been on 2' to 4' in Santa Cruz. i'm 5'11" and 167lbs 40yo intermediate surfer that surfs almost daily ... seems like a good size for me. what size BB do you recommend? also, i see mixed reviews on the BB some say it's good from 3' to 6' and i see your comments that it is 0 to 3', what gives? thanks for the info!

Hey JS, I'm 5'8" and about 170 lbs, I was thinking the 5'10" black box? do you agree?

Hi Kelsey,

Without knowing your ability and/or the type of waves you are surfing, I would recommended the BB, but maybe look at the 5'8. These boards are normally ridden 3-4" shorted than your normal size.

Hope this helps
JS

Hi JS, these boards have worked well for me: Al Merrick Pod, Xanadu Pig 2 (rode both in 5'8)Also for shorties the al merrick mx and k-board. Im 6'1 155lbs and i surf at a high level. was wondering which small wave board and thruster you would reccomend. Dimensions? My standard shorty is 6'2 18 5/8 2 3/8. thanks alot for your time

Hi JS, I'm planning on getting a blakbox and I'm 5'8 , 65 kg. Just wondering what size board you think would fit me. Intermediate level surfer.

Hi Nick,

I would recommend a BlakBox 5'10 19 3/4 2 3/8 - the extra width will give you some versatility. Stoked you are having a look.

Regards, JS

Gday there Matt,

I would recommened sizing down 3-4" on your current board - what are you current riding?

Cheers, JS

I'm on a 6'1 shortboard but probably going to get a 6'0 flyboy 2 pretty soon after the blakbox. Thanks!

hey JS, i'm on a 6'0" Konfusion and i'm 5'11" and 168lbs, intermediate skill level, what size Blak Box do you recommend? Thanks!

Hows it goin JS!...I'm 5'8" 170 lbs and just bought the 5'10" Blackbox...so far i've surfed this board in 2-4 ft wind chop and 3-5 ft Laniakea on the North shore. BEST board ever. Suits my style of surfing perfectly. You da man JS!

Aloha Jason. I am 6 foot 185 lbs. I have been riding a 5'8" x 20" x 2 1/2" JS Dyno. I love the board and it paddles great and it goes great in all types of small surf. I want to purchase a Blk Box from 5'8" to 5'11 but all of the boards this size are not 2 1/2" thick. I want to keep the thinkness with out going so long. I found one 6'0" x 20" x 2 1/2" but I would like one shorter. Do you plan on making any shorter and thicker? And if so where will we be able to purchase them here in the States? Thank you for all of your input JS and keeping all of us stoked on surfing with your magical boards! Mahalos JS!

Hi JS, I'm currently seeking a new board for next summer and I just saw the Dyno has many great feedbacks. I live in France and surf in Hossegor (you may know the place). This part of France has excellent beach breaks, pretty hollow waves even during summer. I'm 6"2 and 80kg. What size of Dyno would you recommand ? Do you think it would suit summer french beack breaks waves ? Cheers for the feedback, hope i'll grab a JS soon!

hey im about 5feet2 wat size board u recomend i was thinking about a 5'6 blak box do u recomend

yo can you advise the right size Blak box...Im 6'3 and 93kgs, currently on a Jordy model (6'3 18 3/4 2 1/2) which rocks but lacks a bit of drive in the summer mush- tks for your time :)

Hey there, I currently have a JS Nitro 6'2 but feel it may now be too wide/thick for my size/weight & now that I am progressing. May just be my lack of skills but seems to ride a bit high in the water/harder to turn compared to thinner boards I have recently tried & hard for me to duck dive deep enough? What would you recommend as my next board. I am 6ft & 68kg. Thanks

JS- looks like I'm going with the blak box for sure and I was just wondering what sort of fins you'd recommend. I'd like to use it on mushier waves and some decent stuff in the chest, maybe shoulder high too. Would love to here your input

i am 15 weigh 130 lbs and trying to decide between a blackbox 5'8" and a mini. Any advice? i am an intermediate surfer mostly on sloppy 1-4 foot swells.
thanks

hey.. im 5'7 and weigh 55 kgs.. looking at getting the black box. what size?

Found the perfect Blak Box! 5'8" x 19 1/2" x 2 1/2" It goes so good! I can't believe the speed it hold through the slop! Unbelievable! Best board I have ridden! Thank you so much for keeping us stoked on surfing no matter how bad the conditions are JS! Your boards are truly amazing! Mahalos JS!

In Sydney and want to get a 6'0 Blak Box with future fins set up. Do you do boards with futures?

looking at getting a short board need a bit of advise.Been surfing a 8ft quad i am 175cm high and weigh 71kg please advise length, thickness and width I am intermediate to advanced.I surf in waves from 2ft to 8ft.

Hey JS, is there any where in the UK where i could get a 5'9 black box deliverd to the north of the uk? cheers x

hi
i live in the uk and i have been looking at a js for a while
but i cant seem to find anywhere to get one
do u k ow anywhere i can?

i ment south* :P and agreed with comment below

UK lads, check the where to buy section of the site and hit Europe/UK theres a list of UK stores and your best chance is to call around to them and see waht they can do for you..Thanks. JS

Just bought one, weigh-in 66kg 1,68m.

surfboard = 19 1/2 2 1/4

i am going to post a review next week. =)

what fins should I use?

Hi JS, I'm 5'10 and weigh 84kgs. I'm probably at the lower end of 'Advanced' level. Normal shortboard would be a 6'2.
I'm thinking a 5'10 Black Box is what I should be looking at. Would that be right? or should I be considering the 5'11?

Thanks!
John

Hi, John a 5'10 will be right by the sounds of it. There's slightly more volume in it that people seam to expect (for the better).JS

Roberto, Best fins will be KR BI-7 for sure. JS

Hey JS,

so awesome that you personally answer questions here. I'm 5'10" 67kgs. I'm 35 and been surfing 6 years. intermediate ability. I don't generally surf thrusters unless it's good, then I ride a 6'2". mostly a 5'9" quadfish. and it wide (maybe too much so) at 20 1/4. I'm trying to decide between a 5'9 and 5'10 BB. Suggestions?

Jake, no problem.
I'm leaning towards 5'9 considering your weight and current boards. its a real good idea to go to a shop and put them under your arm for final decision. JS

Hey JS. My everyday board is a 5'10 x 18 1/8 x 2 3/16. Im 5'7 tall and 66 kg. I was thinking about ordering a Blak Box 5'6 what do you think? Isn't 19 1/4 going to be too much for me? just asking because I'm gonna want the best performance possible out of this thing. Cheers.

Hey JS, really thinking of a blak box to ride in the UK. I am 5'7" 63kg and usually ride a 6'1" x 18 7/8 " x 2 1/4. I find this board doesnt do much for me in our waves and only works in over 4ft-ish. I want something that'll be good for up to 4-5ft that i can use all year. What kinda measurements do you recommend? I want more width and volume like a fish.

Hey JS was hoping you could help me decide on the size i need for my black box, I'm 5'9'' 160lbs and i ride a 6'3''x 19 1/2 x 2 1/2 webber fatburner.

Hey JS! Im 180cm and 70kg and usually I ride a retro Fish quad with 6.0 x 20.5 X 2 3/4. I am between beginner an intermediate surfer. What size should I ride the Blak Box?
Thanks!Pedro

Hey guys, i am 5'8 and 72 kgs and of intermediate ability. usually surf beach breaks in sydney up to about head high. wondering what size BB u would recommend??

Hi JS, i have the all merick gravy 5'11 and i want to change it for the blak box or the v2.1. I have a good level in surf. 1m86 and 81kg. Which board do you recommand for little waves and chat seize of board? Jerome

So you guys are using the same video clip in both your promo videos for the Black Box, and Mystery model with Jordy talking about how good the board is. Kinda wrecks a little creditability I would have to say

our video guy put jordies comments on blak box and mystery by mistake ..wrong side of the bed ..big night on the turpes

Hi JS, its really cool that your giving feed back to a lot people on here. I currently ride a 6" 18 3/4 2 1/4. I'm 25 iv been surfing for 12years, I'm 5"11 and I weigh 69kg. I was hoping to get a 5'10" 19 1/4 2 3/8, what do you reckon?

hi i'm 185cm and 93kg intermediate level looking for a board to get me going good when it's 2-3ft thinking of getting a bb in 6'2. i normally wouldn't get a board under 6'4. any thought's. cheers

Hey js, I'm 6'0 75kg and considering either a 5'9 or 5'10 what size do you think I should go.

Hey JS, I am a UK grom currently surfing a 5'8" 19" 23/16" Quiver Stoke 'a' Pop I have been looking at the black box looks like a sick little board, I am 5'10.5" tall and pretty light so i am considering a 5'7" Black box, what are your thoughts or would
you suggest 5'8 or bigger?

Whats up js, super stoked on your boards. I am looking at a 5'8 nitro. I weigh 185 itermediate / advanced surfer. Live in s cal. looking for a summertime floater.. Saw that parko rides the 5'8. you think It will float me or is it on of those """ kelly
slater rides a 5'10 at pipe.""" kind of thing. PARKOOO love it..... Thanks

Hey, JS! I'm thinking about a BlakBox as a board for the North Sea. Conditions are often pretty mushy and many times waves lack the power the bigger oceans. I'm 6'2 (around 80kg), now surfing a CI Pod 6'0 (quad version) and sometimes a 5'8 Biscuit. I'm
not afraid of a little more volume, because I surf most sessions in a 6mm wetsuit. So which length would you recommend? 6'0? Or could I go smaller? A hint would be great! :-)

charlie i think the 6,0 wold be a good choice

Hey js im looking at a vx5 to add to my quiver i am 5'11 and about 70 kgs. would it be ok to ride one as short at 5'6 or would that be pushing it? Cheers

yes charlie a 5,6 vx5 would be pushing it ...its your call

hey js, im 6'3 and 82 kg (180pounds). would 5'11 be perfect? or 6'0? intermediate+ surfer Thanks..

sorry, forgot to say. my go-to performance shorty is a 6'3 x 18 3/4 x 2 3/8

Heey JS I'm 5'3 and 55kg. Dunno what size to get for the blak box, could you give me some advice? U legend JS !!!!!!!

hugo with ya blak box go 2 to 3 inches smaller than your regular performance board

hey JS, I'm 24 years old from Israel and about to buy black box, i'm 5'10" height and 172 lbs. can you suggest me the right size? Thanks!

Hi JS - Trying to figure out if I should go for a 5'6" or 5'7" blakbox. Am 5'7", ~127 lb. Used to surf quite OK (low-end advanced maybe), had a few years living inland, now back to the water. old boards were thin 6'0" - 6'2"s...

Hi JS, Awesome you personally reply to all these questions! I'm 168cm/5'5" and weight 55kg/121lbs. Intermediate surfer on waves from knee to head hight. Witch size do you me recommend? Thanks alot

heya ,,My BB has a swallowtail...what's the scoop on that ? thanks ~

Hey I am 35 years old, 5,11 tall and 78kg looking for a black box, is 6,0 to much foam?

Hi JS, I Am a 5'8 and 82 Kg. Today I surf with a 5'7 20'' 2 3/8 model Rusty dwart and a 6'1 2 1/4 18 1/2 from brazilian shaper, I want to do a blakbox in Brazil, i think a 5'10 , 19 1/2 2 3/8. What do you think? Thanks

J...S... Im riding a BB 5'8. Thing is really fun. Whats your insight in what types of fins work well. Thanks

hi jay ...occys fin and bruces ...fins both go great on all the small blak boxes .....those wide tals like a medium size fin

i am considering purchasing a small wave board a 5'7 blak box. However, i have always been an al merrick fan. should i make the switch? if so why?what makes the blak box better than the dumpster diver?

Hi! I would like to know which stores do you have in South America or Central America if i want to buy a JS Industries Black Box 5'8? To which dealer I must talk/email to? I'm from Argentina but I am traveling to Central America in January/February. Thanks!

JS: im 6ʻ2" and 185 lbs. i got a 6ʻ0" BB. which fins would you reccomoend? mostly mushy waves so need to get some speed

Yoooo JS anyone there?

Hi JS, I got a chance to ride the 6'0 20 2 1/2 BB and absolutely loved it! I rode it in 4-6ft Swami's and found I could out position/paddle/drop everybody on anything I went for. I've shaped about 15 boards now and plan to mimick the dimensions of the
BB while slightly modifying tail design and nose width. I'm 5'11 200lbs and an intermediate surfer in anything from 3-10ft. If I'm going for a 6'0 20 2 9/16 (similar to Luke's dims), what thicknesses do you go with 1 ft from the tail and nose? I know this
will effect flex characteristics.

its a 6'2..its pretty wide and thick compared to most other guys on tour

It was actually 6'2 x 19 x 2 1/2

Pity his board broke in that final....reckon he woulda won it!!!

Hi:

I m thinking in order this model, I'm 5,8 and 85 kg wich dimensions on the 6'1 size you think would work better?
JPJSS61 6'1 18 1/2 2 1/4
JPJSS61B 6'1 18 5/8 2 5/16
JPJSS61C 6'1 18 3/4 2 3/8
what you thin about this dimensions on the 5 model:
JPAI561B 6'1 18 1/2 2 3/16
Wich one you think would work best?? Considering using a 3/2 mm wet suit

Hey JS, I was wondering if you'd recommend this model to someone who likes a lot of rocker in their boards. I am 5'11 and 175lbs (180cm and 80kgs). I am an intermediate-advanced surfer. I usually ride a 6'2" x 18 5/8" x 2 3/8" CI Proton, which I love. But wanted to try either a Jordy or Parko model but not sure which one to go for.

Sick design work by Adrian!!! Yeww

When Jordy rides his signature series 6'6" is he using that board as a step up into the 6-8 foot range?

what size and dims was jordy into at Quickie ?

His board for Snapper was actually 6'2 x 19 x 2 1/2
