Just added a 7'7" x 22&1/2 x 2&3/4" long fish to the quiver. Nice and eco friendly with the exception of the eps blank. Paulownia with cork rails and bio resin. Made by a young local shaper of wooden boards for his own use. Flat rockered and foiled out since he's a lightweight so should be pretty ease to move around since I weigh plenty more than him. Next to a 6'4" for comparison.View attachment 114523View attachment 114524View attachment 114525
Maybe not most eco friendly but eps is made of recyclable foam beads unlike p/u which ends up in landfills:shrug:

JS is killing two trendy birds with one stone. Mid length and long twin. It makes sense given that he's been doing the shorter Baron twinnies so this is like an extension of that line. There was like 3 different sizes in stock in US this morning. All sold out out now. The 7-0 AUS one is tempting but it's FCS2.

Hey Greg , really curious where you put twins on a 9 foot board ?
Not asking for all the secret sauce , just an idea of what ball park numbers may be?
Thanks

I'm getting obsessed with Robin Kegel and Gato Heroi. Anyone ever order a board from him? Looks like he's been lurking in Europe for some time.

Acid, Surfar, and Dagger models look siiick.

I've ordered a few of his boards through wild things in Australia - amazing boards and great customer service.
