Proper gutters!

:love:
AB used to come every winter in the 80's , he hung out in our neighborhood .
Great friend .

I resize my fins - smaller to put the board back into the constant drift needed for boards to work .
You know you are drifting all the time I hope :)

That drift runs more water thru these channels that are toed in constantly accelerating the board like the fins .

Works great in all surf .

The AB fins that Shapers still make for Byrning Spears (and are supplied with every deep six you order from them, you'll be happy to hear) are tiny. Did you ever meet Dale Wilson, who now shapes at Byrning Spears? Good episode of the Surfsplendor Podcast with him.

What is the optimal number of channels in your opinion? I read somewhere phil meyers maybe that 10 was best.
