Eye Candy 2
Brians been busy shaping all week, I went over to downshift from workin all week and check on whats goin to Sacred Craft next weekend, a few Tecates later we pulled some out of the bags. The surf pic is Tyler goin thru the Gears on the OG , Gee Bee. On the lawn a Fineline Zombie, Liddle L- spoon, a PHD SOS, Fineline Ant and a P-38. I think will have a few demos at the show.
Twinfin thats funny I knew it reminded me of somthin, those P-38s come with the Velo tail or the shallow swallow the dirtysanchez tail. Greg Martz from Watermans Guild on the tintjob.
Yeah, I toe the long-ass suckers in around 3/16" per fin- they have an 8 1/2" base- you don't want both those suckers in the water at the same time without toe, and really on rail it sure isn't gonna slow you down any. BJ
Thanks Brian! I'm totally sold on the concept, especially in waves not suited for the classic hull ride. Wiggle around on the keels but step/lean up and engage the hull for trimecstasy. I use single foil keels with some cant but no toe. Works for me. Can't wait to see yours...
sheepshead...boil it up and serve it with chips!
