How the Pyzel Phantom Rides
The Phantom is Pyzel's everyday step-down from the Ghost, designed to retain a high-performance feel while working better in the less-than-perfect conditions surfers encounter most often. Pyzel carries over the Ghost rocker while adding more single concave through the center, effectively flattening the running surface to help the board generate speed and flow.
A fuller, more parallel outline adds width through the nose and tail. According to Pyzel, this helps the Phantom maintain speed through slower sections while still fitting into tight turns. The rails are designed to provide additional flotation without becoming overly chunky, preserving the sensitivity expected from a performance-oriented shortboard. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
What Waves Is the Pyzel Phantom Designed For?
Pyzel positions the Phantom as an everyday board for waist-high through overhead surf and lists its broader intended range at approximately 2 to 8 feet. The design was developed specifically to bring some of the Ghost's performance characteristics into the head-high-and-under conditions that make up a large percentage of normal surf sessions. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
That makes the Phantom a useful option for a surfer who still wants to surf progressively but doesn't want to wait for powerful, high-quality waves before pulling out a performance board.
38.2 Liters in a 6'4 Shortboard
At 38.2 liters, this particular 6'4" Phantom offers substantially more foam than a lower-volume performance shortboard while retaining the Phantom's performance-focused design. The added volume can contribute to paddle support and flotation, while the board's outline, rails, rocker, and bottom contours determine how that volume translates once the board is on rail.
Surfboard volume should not be used by itself to determine sizing. Surfer weight, ability, fitness, typical waves, current equipment, and desired performance should all be considered when deciding whether this 38.2L Phantom is the right size.
Bottom Contour & Performance Design
Pyzel describes the Phantom with a single concave transitioning through double concave and into vee. Combined with its medium rocker and fuller outline, the design is intended to balance speed generation with the control and rail-to-rail performance expected from a daily-driver shortboard. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Futures Thruster Fin Setup
This individual Phantom has three Futures fin boxes and is configured as a thruster. A thruster provides the familiar combination of drive, control, hold, and pivot associated with modern performance shortboards. This particular board does not include fins, so a compatible Futures thruster set will need to be supplied separately.
PU / Poly Construction
This Phantom is listed with traditional PU/poly construction. Pyzel currently offers the Phantom in PU configurations, and its current inventory also confirms this exact 6'4" x 20 5/8" x 2 3/4" x 38.2L combination with a Futures three-fin setup. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Who Is This Pyzel Phantom 6'4 Best For?
This 6'4" Phantom is worth considering for a surfer who wants a performance-oriented daily driver with 38.2 liters of volume rather than the lower-volume dimensions commonly associated with traditional shortboards. The Phantom is particularly relevant for someone who wants one board capable of maintaining performance in everyday surf while still having the design characteristics to handle better waves when conditions improve.
