WRV Slayer vs. Lost V2 Domesticated SB

Any feedback on riding the WRV's Slayer model or Lost v2 DOMESTICATED? Anyone spent time on both and had a chance to compare? Trying to decide on the next board for waist-high-and-above punchy beach break. Dimensions for a 5'8" in both models look very similar but I don't know much about the rocker on WRV slayer. Thoughts, feedback, experience...

 

Thanks mrcoop, how's that v3 rocket holding up on bigger/more hollow days? Anyone else, ridden lost's v2 domesticated shortboard or WRV's slayer?

 

What's the largest surf you've ridden your v3 in? Do you have a pretty good idea of where it starts to max out?

 

I don't know much about the concave, rails, etc. of the slayer. WRV website compares the slayer to their 'chronic' model, which appears to be a pretty standard HPSB. The slayer looks like they took the volume of a HPSB and pushed it into a board a couple inches shorter, the popular theme (shorter, wider, thicker), without being a true groveler.

Most of my boards have been had slightly fuller rails, lower rocker, and either single concave all the way or single-double out fins. I like those characteristics but I'm interested in progressing my surfing further in terms of turns/rail work. I've ridden shorter boards with a SB plan shape but nothing on the extreme performance end of the spectrum (rocker/rail-wise). Surfing NC and SE coast 95% of the time, so really just searching for something that turns on during punchier EC swell. My last shortboard was 5'10"x18.5"x2.25" and I'm 145lb, 5'8", intermediate level, if thats helpful.

Thoughts/suggestions for any other boards are welcome.

 

Most likely stock, if possible. I want the board to perform but I have a hard time spending the extra money on a custom shape from the "big-name" shapers...maybe it's worth the extra $..? Thanks for the feedback, that's helpful.
