Question for Greg Griffin

Wing is placed at the back of the main fin





It is unnecessary , but I am willing to make them this way since at this location they work well and get Errb points ;-)

@griffinsurfboard Hey, i got a Question for Greg Griffin

a while back you had posted a performance retro twin fin that you were to build, you had a pic of the replica on the ceiling.

Many of us were super keen on this build project and then ... crickets, nothing, zip, nada.

Whatever happened? you did not build it? fins @ 9.5 would put you in risk of cardiac arrest? (understandable)

What happened with that T+C twinny replica? (you could move some units bro)

That was a 1982-3 Local Motion a customer wanted remade , he eventually decided not to do this .

Greg, given your placements of the mains, why are the twinzer fronts necessary on this? Was this your suggestion or the customer's? I guess I'm asking: what is the twinzer adding here vs. straight twin? [love twins but never tried twinzer so am just curious what I'm missing]

Canards can add more energy in the rail , being forward they do not stiffen the board and actually can initiate the turn a bit , slight pivot feel from where they are placed

Not really hiding and unlike you and your Idaho boy friend never threatened any one either but always happy to meet someone face to face

Knock it off. Jeez.
