Twinzer Feedback?
- Thread starter spjones123
- Start date
Slidey no good. Try less cant or more aft. I took out 2 degrees of the mains on my board and it felt so much better.
I always order Green , sometimes they send tan
Latest batch is similar to what I had 20 years ago , transparent light green - very pleasent color and shows the foiling
Working with the main office and hopefully I can get this manufacture on every order
They do have Black
Similar color to these 15 years ago

All finned, padded, waxed, and most importantly..........properly leash stringed.

@jkb Looks beautiful J, the rocker shot is money 
If your going to do single plugs with your twinzer, I think this is the best option.
I have lost two sets of twinzer canards while out in the water. Both from just ”surfing.” I don’t think anyone realizes how much pressure is put on that canard. If your light, probably no problems, but if your bigger or doing some big carves, using a full fusion box with two tabs on the canard, glass on, or the two screw set above is the only way to go.
Going through sets of twinzers is expensive and sucks. One of my boxes actually cracked, running from where the screw goes in, to the fin slot. Lots of pressure, plus trying to anchor with only one screw, the fin will rock in the box unless it is perfectly flush with the board which become a DIY project.
As others have mentioned, positioning is CRITICAL. If you think you can turn your Twin, into a Twinzer just by adding the front canards, mistaken.
The biggest thing holding the Twinzer back is that front canard box. I still think two tab is the only way to go.
This thread reminds me I have to take my board in and get the dang single round plug routed out and have a fusion box that I grinded away on a bench grinder installed somehow. It ain’t going to be pretty but big whoop.
Then I can start using GG two tab twinzer fins that I have. I do like those Rainbows but they are at the bottom of the ocean.
The cord ripping thru the fin area during a wipeout is the enemy of the single plug
Single plug coolness over rides real world function , Good fun watching all this ;-)

The two screws on the Liv3mind boxes are for adjustability. The single tab isn’t quite big enough for both screws to hit the tab enough to provide extra security.
Thanks T! Excited (and nervous) to get her in the water!@jkb Looks beautiful J, the rocker shot is money
My OG Dynamic Balance boards were set @
Mains: 2 degrees, glass on
Canards: 14 degrees, routed in, glassed on
Given the age of the boards it could be Wil evolved over time, or maybe he adjusted cant angles for the intended conditions of the surfboard.
@sdsurfrat Interesting, if I remember correctly retodds Dynamic Balance was around 4° with 1/4" toe (glass on)
Knock on wood, about 7 boards over the last 4 years with half Fusion plugs for canards and no issues. (Thank Barry)

Oh My

Please move your fins back up to 8 3/4"
and stay in Harmony with the Force ! ;-)

This is what happened when I came in contact with the canard with my leg in a closeout. It didn't feel like it was a big hit, just a good tap. I know I hit the main fin too but zero damage. First lost canard.
