The “Too” is an all-around performance minded surf craft, well-suited for both pocket surfing and at sections. Round is rad, and Rob super-charged the original Motorboat, added tail rocker, deck rocker, and foiled out the thickness. The bottom is single to double to vee out the back providing drive and forgiveness. The end result is an updated version that surprised Rob in its performance in all conditions, not a novelty but a user friendly board for all skill levels.
As long as you surf a wave w/ ballz it works fine but if your daily break is a mushburger longboard point then you might have problems <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/poke.gif" alt="" />
Not sure if this got answered for you or not but here is my take. I have a 6'0" short board that has a pretty deep single concave all the way out the tail and the board is great for on rail hard carving turns. It has no tail release at all when going for a deep carving turn and even when going for a turn or bank off the close out the hold is just insane. I really like this board for any type of wave that has some push or power. The deep single is a bit tough to get up tp speed in junk surf. As for the difference between single all the way through and single to double. The single to double in my opinion is better for average waves and high performance surfing. The double concave in front of you center fin allows the water to break apart in front of the fin and helps the board loosen up allowing for an easier, springy feeling. Single concave can still be loose but will be better for more drawn out turns and hold through turns. Opposed to the double that will allow release and slide. Add some vee in the tail with either of these combos for increased turning ease. Overall I like singles with vee in the tail or single to double with vee in the tail. Straight singles are good but I think they kinda have their place in certain waves. To me they are not the best all around bottom contour. Deep singles are great for hold and speed and lighter singles with be easier to get going in smaller waves and will still allow for carving turns and hold.
Doesn't a moderate single with a good flip in the tail sort of make the best of both worlds? It's been a good combo for me on regular to good wave boards.
