Wanted to give props to these fine board builders. I spoke to them months ago about designs and what would work for me for the @fsmaldives event. They all worked so great. I wanted to have a board that would perform but still stay true to the era they were used in. @albumsurf single fin (red board) 6 channel. True single with no other options, and performed insane. I wanted to have a little more curve in the tail so that I could pivot without sliding. Came out great. . Twin fin was shaped by @arakawasurfboards I really like this board. Again, only two boxes, true twin, and it performed awesome. Super fast and a ton of carry speed. Has hints of a traditional outline but with enough curve and rocker to fit in your modern day moves. . Thruster was also shaped by @arakawasurfboards this design is called the booster. It feels fast, loose and really easy to keep on rail. Other boards with me on trip that I really like too: twin fin by @albumsurf and carbon thruster bump squash by @darkartssurf @justinternes_jt . Pic by legend @tedgrambeau
