I liked tudor commenting on just get a mind machine
There‘s a bunch of them at the shop here in SB.
Yeah it does look fun. I can envision giving it a go in fast barreling beach break conditions. From the IG post sounded like it had not been released as yet and they don't have it on the CI website. Looks like they are going to be releasing a new edit on it soon. I'm not a CI fanboy and don't give a sh!t about what label is on it or whether they've copied a design concept... the bottom design really caught my eye and curiosity. Other shapers ... i.e. Lovelace have been dabbling with it .... the Lovelace ToobShooter looks interesting as well ... but a 12 month wait for a custom shape as advertised on their site is a bit much. The design itself has roots going back to Greenough and CI as well was producing tri-plane hull designed boards back in the day. I'm curious to see what the standard dims on it are.
I’ll swing by the shop tomorrow and get some dims for ya.
Seriously tho, how many did you order in Varial carbon?
Its interesting no one seems to remember the Brewer Tri Plane bottoms used on these mid 70's boards
Do you have any pics of examples? Seems like the tri plane bottom has so many variations. The one on the new CI doesn’t make sense to me with the concave aggressively narrowing towards the tail. Seems like it would create a water flow similar to a big pipe to a little pipe creating pressure build up. Kinda like Machado’s go Fish.
Looks like the curve of the concaves matches the curve of the rail line as does the Go Fish.
Yup, which has never made sense to me. Seems like it would prevent water from releasing off the tail. but I ain’t no shaper so….
"3 flats in the front , some times a slight center strip of concave , outside panels dropping to create 4 planes then to Vee and flat out the back"
webbersurfboards.com
Many good shapers tried these extreme doubles with Vee , All dumped that effort and moved onOnly single fin? Not even side bites? Probably can't figure out a way to put boxes on that bump.
I'd be more interested in the Webber Creature. The lift effect should be similar but in a much more high performance package.

Creature
Adam Robbo test driving the Creature Beau Edwards carving The Creature is a true “super high” performance shortboard to be created. The first being the Banana. But along with the amazin…

Admin ... please direct this gentleman to the nearest thread playing a Noel Salas surfboard review video. Thank you!
