This is a custom board for Sean who lives in Tokyo a 5'9" X 19 1/4" X 2 5/16" 28L . It has a touch more nose rocker to a flatter section through the middle to a medium tail rocker single to double inside single through the fins to a flat on the tail pod. I made Sean a slight step up last year for typhoon swells but this is more for everyday Chiba waves ๐๐ฎ

It's funny how sometimes a customer will push you in a different direction in design either in the board or fin set ups, so the other day l guy asked to swap boards out in the surf ,after 3 waves he gave it back and ordered one but not what he used. He asked for a twinzer so l had never made one . So on to google worked out the fin placements found some old FC's fins l had reshaped them and put them on one of my favourite boards over night and rode it today. Result more speed and drive plus better control in turns , happy camper am Iโบ๏ธ
