"Trog" by Iron Cross Surfboards

Jay Gygera at Iron Cross Surfboards let Board Riders Review take his own personal "Trog" . A shortboard designed for everyday So Cal waves. It performed really well in 4-6 foot loamy waves and it really shined on the inside dredgers, we had a blast on it! Stable, predictable it is a great base for a custom board with your preferences. And they are under 5 bills!
