Tim Stamps - Shaper of the Year

[sdsrfr]

when I ordered mine, I told him I wanted mine looser than my TKF with glass-ons. he may have bumped them forward.

by all means mine works great and I’ve since unloaded my TKF, mostly just curious for sake of comparing fins and ride reports with you folks.

Are you running the Stamps Keel ?

I have over this past summer. I found they added considerable range for groveling and made it more like my TKF in a good way. their trailing edges ended up in the same spot.

somewhere on here I posted a photo of the Hobie and Stamps templates compared. Dims aside, Stamps has less cant.

So a couple months ago I asked tim what he thought about twin fin eggs & he pulled out one of his personal boards, I think it was a 6-8 or something...twin fin
He said he doesn't remember having so much fun on a board.
So I said, good enough for me.
7-2 x 21-3/4 x 2-3/4
Roswell model. Refined sultan, some concave, pulled in nose & tail, refined rails...all around good time
I cant remember everything he said but there was extreme stockage

I think he was talking about that board last time I was there. Said it was getting him out and having fun on the weakest days.

He sounded pretty stocked on his longfish he's been riding. like, it doesn't make sense until you ride it type o thing.

He told me havoc has a 9'8" on order so I can't wait to hear his review.

9’8”? Pfft, only duus with sissy thighs ride anything under 10’

The 9'8 length is to paddle his old ass around the lineup.

The 3 1/4 thickness is for pushing on with his thunder thighs.

I recently picked up a 7'0" Long Division Fish from Tim. Only one session on it so far, but it was so much fun. Big sweet spot and I left with a big smile on my face.

Big recommend

I had a great time on my 9' Twin - Thruster in 2000
Same on my 7'4" Twin in 2005
Unknown T&C label on both ;-)

What do you think about Twinzer setup on longer boards and what is your cutoff length for twins?
