"The new Izzy Rider Type 2 is best described as a blend between the Elevator nose template and rocker without the step deck and a refined tail rocker and bottom contour. The basic tail template and rails in the center were basically left the same. It is not designed to 'point and trim', the board likes to be pushed and placed in critical areas of the wave. It is fast and responsive, allowing smooth turns and full carves back into the pocket to a set up for a solid nose ride. I feel the new Izzy Type 2 is a board that can take your traditional longboarding skill to another level." —Matt Calvani
"I find that the Type 2 Izzy rider offers a perfect blend between locked in noseriding stability and a very playful yet effortless control from the tail." —Miguel Sinclair
