I haven't ridden any of the three yet, but would like to order one of the three. Anyone ridden all of them? How do they compare?

haven't ridden any of them, but have a board that is pretty similar to a ghostbuster, with a wing and diamond tail, and double concave throughout, and absolutely love it for ankle to chest high.
dims on mine are 5'3 x 21 x 2 3/4. here's a shot before it was hotcoated

i've ridden the buzz but not the other two. based on the reviews i've read of the other two, buzz is not in the same category [groveler]. superbuzz maybe.

Nice board Toddo. MM is currently at the top of the list.

Talk to Stretch and create a new model off of what you are liking.
Custom.

tried a megamind and a ghostbuster.
ghostbuster is the groveler out of the three. megamind is a performance groveler, probably wont handle an equally small wave as the ghostbuster. buzz sounds like the most high performance out of teh three.
so: get a MM

I tried a MM and I didn't like it. Maybe you get used to that concave deck, but it felt very odd to me.
Just my $0.02, but due to inflation its worth even less...

The MM I rode has more rocker than many other grovellers out there. Mine on the way has a bit lower entry and stretched out by 2" and narrowed by 1". Should be money for the weak waves I surf. Great HP groveller

That sounds fun Havoc. Please post up how it goes in comparison to Retodd's MM when you have a couple of surfs under your belt.
