Spring/summer YOLO fresh out the box. Custom Fascination. Stretched it out and thinned it out more than the stock dims. This one is 5’6 x 19.63 x 2.25 about 29L. Under arm test feels insane. Tail foil is pretty thin which I’m stoked on. We have waves, so ride report coming soon.

Ordered on 2/2, at my door on 3/1.

Boar looks great. I had a Fascination a few yrs ago....you might click with something else (fins are so subjective), but the best fin setup I found was Stretch quads heelside and a large EN twin toeside.

Edit: found an old photo, I was using the NVS Fascination twin toeside.

Fresh out the box. Been too busy fondling it. Probably kick the wife out of bed and sleep with it tonight. Also, guess I haven’t ordered enough Albums to get on the branded leash string team yet.

Thanks! Rocker on both ends is definitely more mellow than the Disorder, but a little more curve than my Lightbender or a standard fish.

I rode it this morning in some pretty lackluster surf. Low tide was too deep and the swell was peaky, so it was either super mushy walls or too shouldered out. I did manage to get 3 decent ones where I was able to feel the board out a bit, and it felt great. Super fast, tight wraps, great release in the lip. If I had to describe it after one mediocre sesh, I'd say it's basically a small to medium wave Disorder. Same basic feel, less HP, but more glide in the small stuff.

I’m very intrigued by the twin vs quad heel toe. People here seem to like it. But I feel like only the fans speak up. Anyway try Albums set up and just went back to straight twin or quad?

I have twin asyms - Townsends - and twin/quad - Disasym. Different boards entirely and I like them both. If I’m going to surf lefts backside all day I’m going with the quad heel every time.

Im assuming someone at album knew the person selling it and they worked something out. They obviously aren't going out and buying all the moderately priced albums and re-selling them so probably just a fluke, but still curious.
