I have lost a reasonable amount of weight recently so time to update a few boards. Have been surfing swallow tailed twins almost exclusively for a few years now and want something around generously proportioned hpsb dims or maybe slightly longer for when the surf lights up. This board will be my middle board for a G-land trip coming up in September also. This board is for head high plus, points, beach breaks and barrels.
Do I stick with what i know and do another swallow (have a 6'2 swallow that fits the bill that i shaped at my heaviest that is now feeling too bulky to engage the rails and i've been skipping out a bit), or thoughts on a a 4 channel round tail for this purpose? Either way I'm planning 5 fin boxes so it can be ridden as twin, twinzer, or twin plus trailer (fronts in the twinzer boxes) for a bit of versatility when i take it travelling.
critique on the planshapes welcome
RP is 6'3 x 20 x 2 5/8
Swallow is 6'2 x 20 x 2 5/8
Both flat decks with low rails carrying around 35-36L
