I’m a sucker for these blue or green color boars, but I actually wish it was a 5 fin for quad/twin+1 options. I mean, even I cannot justify another <6’0 swallowtail twin to myself. NOYOLO
These look absolutely epic but I'm right there with you on there being no room on the rack for another twin.

Getting horny for my XTR TM that should be shipping this week. On the order card I asked for red with minimal logos, then I asked to change it to blue so it’ll probably be purple that’s actually grey with an album retro rave logo.

Horny-bought these large twins to try too, although I love the upright NVS set in my Varial TM:

Checked the XTR order status and noticed there are three 5’4” Plasmic in production. This is building my confidence that it is indeed the magic size. Also I noticed three 5’8” GMM2s also in production. Just goes to show that one is also magic.

Agree. Buy first then decide what doesn’t make the cut.

hipster sleds sell with the quickness right now. the more over priced the faster they go!

aside- @Duffy LaCoronilla what fins you like in the swallow tail twinsman?

Thanks @manbearpig


Been wanting to try my NVS Taylor Knox twins but the TAs work so good I don’t want to take them out.

Guys, there are some INSANELY fun-looking summer boards on the album site right now.

I'm tweaking with YOLO ideas.

Edit: I just realized this reads like a sales / clickbait-ey thing. Don't worry - they all still cost over $1100

No problem.

I keep going back to these fins always. I wanted to like the alki (spelling?) Ellis Ericsson set I got but nothing quite works as good as the TAs like you said

Put in the T Knoxes if you want to change it up to something funky(fast, sharp and loose).

Bros, I need help YOLOing a mid-length. Looking for something to get me through the summer slop and east side Santa Cruz south swells with 40 thousand people on the peak. I've narrowed it down to a few options for you all:

1. Album Plasmid
2. Album Symphony
3. Rob Machado Sunday (Non-firewire version)
4. Christenson Hunstman

Open to other options as well if you all know of some prime ML YOLOs.
Oh, I like this subject. Been trying to decide on a small wave middy for a while myself. Plasmid in Varial is probably at the top of the list but I've been having trouble pulling the trigger.
