Making me wish I'd traded or bought that thing. Stoked for you.This is my third thread in a row about this board, but I wanted to document it here for whoever might stumble onto this thread in the future like I did.
I finally got to try out my 6'6" x 21.5" x 2.75" twin shadow with VS twins out in bigger waves this week and WOW, so much stock. Yesterday there were some sets in the 1.5-2x OH range and I caught them without any hesitation, but it's also a blast on the smaller waves (ridden down to waist the shoulder so far). I envisioned this board for the two spots I surfed the last two days that can occasionally throw a barrel but after are running walls with a few turn sections.
Both spots tend to have quite a bit of water moving around and this board has great paddled power, it was easy to hunt down outside and inside peaks, even with the current pumping.
On my backhand this thing really surprised me, I stuck the biggest backside air drop I've ridden out and immediately was projected down the line like nothing happened - not normal for me. It also is really easy to throw it up into the lip backhand, not that I go to noon but it's easy and fun.
Frontside I got two waves that were exactly what I hoped for with this spot/board. Steep drop off the ledge with lots of speed into a top turn, quick pump down the line into a cover up, followed by as many turns as you can muster down the line. It held through turns in steep sections without hesitation. I find this board so user friendly, the whole thing is a sweet spot.
I see many of these at AquaEast and they have always intrigued me. I have been very fortunate enough to have some side cash this year for a couple of new surfboards and I'm thinking about picking this up or the flying manta27 of these being completed at the glass shop I use this week for AquaEast
I’ve had quite a few of various sizes, from iirc 5’10” to a beefy 6’7”. Still one of my fav designs ever and works at all sizes scaling up. The thick 6’7” was a big/mush wave beast. My current 6’2” is prob my most hpsb for me currently. I think a 7’0” Shadow would go nuts, but if you go more than 2 5/8” on a stock the rails are chonky. I need to take mine out this week…it may come to Mex this summer.Ive had a few in various lengths and for me its a Swiss Army type of board. Works in many conditions and is fast and manueverable.
I have a 7 footer I got for post surgery surf. Now it kinda rides too big but ill prob keep it for a back up or crowd killer LOLI’ve had quite a few of various sizes, from iirc 5’10” to a beefy 6’7”.

I had an early Von Twinzer fish, which was a phenomenal board that worked amazingly well in local beachbreak and Mexpoint surf, but it wasn’t the same design as the one pictured. I don’t know what the diff is, but I’m sure that board would rock.5'10" x 21 1/4 x 2 9/16 Von Sol EPS "Twinzer" Fish Surfboard - The Board Source

Von Sol twinzer fish?
If this has the same concave bottom as Shadow...this could be shite hot!
@Oceanslide or anyone got any insight?
Looks like he uses Jobson fins in a video....
Thanks!
just watched a few of the vids. boards look really funHe posted these vids 8 months ago talking about various designs. Suprised they haven't been posted here. With his longer Shadow mids he talks about running them as a twin with their forward plug placement.
