Testimonials are always great, but sometimes you just need to see it for yourself (above). As the name suggests the MonstaBox Hyfi is actually a hybrid creation, made from the pairing of two of JS’s global faves – the Monsta 6 and Blak Box 2. It’s a board focused around versatility, with just the right amount of flex and speed generating attributes to perform brilliantly in everything from typical, everyday wiggles to the top end of the quality scale. And now, to wrap up this introduction, a few words from credible sources:

“For those fun little sessions where a shortboard won’t work, but you still want to surf your absolute best, I wouldn’t want to be on anything else.” – Joel Parkinson.

“On smaller days I hardly ever veer away from surfing it – even if the waves suck it hasn’t let me down and in better surf or contests, it still has that spark you need to go as hard as you want.” – Mikey Wright.

“HYFI’s enhanced flex and mind-blowing speed combines with the Monsta Box’s versatility to create a board that flies down the line, springs through turns, and can be surfed in everything from average, everyday grovels to the most fun sessions you can imagine.” – JS

You’ll find a little more detail over here.
