Long fish - but shorter?

It's great, Steve. Very very versatile, but it doesn't grovel or glide in tiny waves with its narrow tail.
Was curious about the Long Phish for a long time, and I wanted to know more about its low end.
(But yes, I could whittle my quiver down to 6'8 Wolverine and 6'10 DS and cover 90% of the waves I surf. Edit: if only I could add Pyz2 and the 8'0 Keogh...)

Gotcha.
I was riding a Joel Fitz Cosmic Twin - 6'10" and had an absolute ball in 2ft waves at the Pass and 2ft Waikiki style waves out in front of the Pub.

Cosmic Twin
The Cosmic Twin is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and every wave in between. A progressive mid-length twin fin surfboard designed by Joel Fitzgerald with a flat bottom into spiral vee through the keels for speed.

Here you go Maz. The bottom constantly transitions. Feels aggressive by hand. Tail is fairly flat transitioning to concave V in the middle to some v to flat in the nose. A lot of nose rocker for a fish dna board.@urchined WOW!!! So I'm set on ordering a 6'4-6'6 long fish type board. Was going with a moonstone for versatility in beach break but that CC long phish II looks insane. Any more ride reports? Or feedback?
A random clip I ran across yesterday of a guy on a 6'6" moonstone. Crappy rewind footage but shows how well it goes on rail and redirects for a longer straighter fish

This thing is sooo good for trimming but holds through big carves and steep barrels. Sorta a quiver killer- beware if you try you will probably buy. #uppertrestles #lowertrestles #surflinerewind #albumsurfboards #santanawinds #comboswell"

Real Nice. They don’t usually have channels like this one, right?A random clip I ran across yesterday of a guy on a 6'6" moonstone. Crappy rewind footage but shows how well it goes on rail and redirects for a longer straighter fish

Yeh they usually don't. I've seen some one offs , but more rare. Out of the couple I've had, I've never thought...."i wish this board had channels". Works great as is.
I copyrighted the terms "short longfish" decades ago.
I'm expecting this to be as big as my previous winner, "jumbo shrimp."

sounds like you need to order a 6'4 x 20 x 2.56 Moonstone with a slot channel, and store it indefinitely at my house to hide it from Mrs. Oeste
DK’s Swordfish model is a great candidate. 
Its tail is wide enough for grovelling but still offers control at speed. IIRC the tail on my 5’11” is a touch over 8” at 0”.
The Vesper seems like another good option for this kind of shred.
