Just took delivery. The grey one is the same dims as one i recently sold, just with a more DDish tail. What is of note is that the rails on these feel much more foiled than the previous one I had, and they feel perfect. Also of note, the blue one doesnt have rail XTR lams, for those that have asked for such a thing

Ugh. Both dirty goofy asym… means I don’t have any shot at taking one off @MrSteve ’s hands in a couple years.
They look nice. What’s the difference in dims between the two?

Stoked its working for you. Overhead waves with larger faces to draw lines on are a lotttt of fun on that board.
They are pretty small. They work great for me in my Townsend as a fin to allow me to really loosen up that pin on larger waves I want to be more playful on. Its my only board I've tried them on, but I'd want more fin on a wider tail with less rail.
Oh man, so excited to order boards without the ridiculous rail logoJust took delivery. The grey one is the same dims as one i recently sold, just with a more DDish tail.

I might well be the world's worst dad, but thus far my kids have not impacted my surfing in any significant way. Probably helps that I'm within 10 mins drive from the beach though.
6-6 x 20.25 with asym squash-ish tail
6-8 x 20 with asym pin tail
plasmic out in a punchy beach break goes real good.
race track rights with a shoulder steep enough to jam the cutback for some tail slide at the end.
elmore twins (sort of scaled up T1’s) are definitely working well. Haven’t been willing to try another set since dropping them in.
kinda curious when the lightbender will make an appearance again. the range I’m getting and still having fun on the plasmic leaves me floored.

Did you use the Gemini Asyms or the actual smaller 5.3 symmetric Gemini? I am impressed by the NVS uprights so far. I recieved the Gemini Asyms yesterday, but afraid to play fire because the board is working so well.
Haha - well past that stage of life! It is the WTF are you doing with your life stage. They are all mostly out of the house, one came back because losing job with COVID. I am married into the insta-family. I surf with one of the kids which actual gets me a hall pass. She knows I use it to.
What have you found the range to be? It sounds from all the plasmic posts that it goes grovel to DD.
its has worked in everything I’ve taken it out in, lol. from battling longboards for mush burgers in leucadia to punchy surf in la jolla.
only had it during the summer so have not had it for a proper late fall swell, or anytbing more than chest/shoulder high, but all the afternoon junk conditions and a couple glassed out mornings have been very fun and none of the “I wish I was on ______ had I known there would be _____ conditions/waves”.

Careful. Sounding like Deforest with his latest tomo! Lol
[I agree the Plasmic is rad tho]
