Unfinished white surfboard standing upright in a workshop area with tools and skateboard decks on the walls.

America’s next top model

A surfboard leaning on a stand in a workshop with tools, wrapping paper, and a trash bin in the background.

This board comes from something I made myself for a trip to good waves. Tried and true round pin egg outline can be made interchangeably as a twin, quad, or twinzer. Concave entry to get up and go quickly. Wide point slightly forward and the bottom goes flat under the chest before giving way to spiral vee ahead of and into the fins. The overall foil and rail profile is thinner with a small beak nose to support maneuvering around the lineup and getting into waves easily.

Generally 6’2 - 7’0 range.
