I went single stringer bc it was already pretty pricey.They seem real busy. Was no easy feat to get the order in but definitely looking forward to it. They look absolutely epic.

Rounded pin tail twins
- Thread starter trifish
- Start date
How about a straight-up round tail twin rather than the pin/round pin twins that are so hot right now? Anyone have and like a round tail twin? Keel or more upright?
I picked up a used one recently for the novelty and only gotten a few waves on it so far. Fun but really loose.

I think if I go with my speed egg AO bottom twin set up I am going thumb tail for sure.

I noted and appreciated your reviewing these before. I go right/frontside a lot so asym was an easy choice plus never had one before. I had considered going shorter but after Matt's rec and I have kind of been on a longer board trip lately (particularly at pointbreaks and OB/long paddles and...

Have spoken to a few people who have them and they love them.I like this one:
El Rayo Verde
We have had huge success with our short swallow-tail variety of twins and have made a bunch of short curvy out-lined pulled-in pintail twins, however they never quite had the spark and drive of the wider tail swallows, especially in small to head high waves. After a few years of fine-tuning, we...www.mctavish.com.au
I'm starting to think some longer twins and shorter twins would make a good quiver if you're sick of HPSB repetition. One lengthy twin with pin tail, One lengthy twin with wider tail, one short twin with round tail and one short twin with wide tail. Hopefully I can build this quiver.
Hopefully it will eventually be:
5'5 Gary Mcneil Mini Pip <- currently own and love
5'7ish Album Insanity
6'6 MOTE Fiji <- On order
6'6 Joel Fitzgerald Cosmic Twin (or something like it)
My latest squeeze...…..7.0 x 21 x 2.62.....
I wasn’t crazy about them but recently got a 5’7. Loving it so far. Fast, loose and sets some interesting lines. Been riding it mostly in good surf
how does it go? backside ok? asking for a fren
I only take it out when it's 1-2'. It's my longboard!!! I'm temped to take it out when it gets bigger. But at my age I don't like how long it takes for me to transition back to my 6' twin fin.
Could of post this in the happy with custom thread also...
Really dig this 6.6. Had it for 3 months now. Got some of the best waves in both beachies and reef breaks on this puppy.
Really dig this 6.6. Had it for 3 months now. Got some of the best waves in both beachies and reef breaks on this puppy.I’ve been riding this for just a month. 6’9”. I’ve got the nvs cdrives in it. Seems to be going good so I’ll let it be. Original plan was to play with keels and the TA twin.

So far so good on my 6’5 from my buddy working at Varial and shaping under his own Malixi Surfboards label. Great addition to any quiver since they can grovel and the outline also lends it to do well in some OH punch. Backside is not an issue once you set your inside rail. With the narrower tail and channels it’s easier to control than a wide twin keel fish going backside on a steep drop

Yes they go good backside, esp with performance twins rather than performance keels.
