What is Fanning holding?
- Thread starter voodoobrew
- Start date
A LOT of stuff going on there...
FCS, quad/split rear trailer style, short stumpy channels going outward under the tail on the bottom, rail channels going inward along the whole length of the board on the bottom, deck channels, and a TL2 board thrown in the mix for drumming up conspiracy theorists. A lot of different design elements going on here.
Did you see who the shaper is?

Thanks Afoaf!
Oddly enough, it looks exactly like my V-Drive design in the "Split Thruster" configuration.(minus the killer looking channels of course)
I'm extremely flattered!
This setup was designed to be very versatile and the "Split Thruster" was meant to be one of the highlights.
The board is being surfed that way currently also utilizing my Stealth fin template as the front fins.
Here is a link to the thread over on Sways way back in april. http://www2.swaylocks.com/forums/and-then-there-weresix
I can't find the one here on Surfmag.

It is good to see so much attention being put into fins. I can't imagine a race car driver not knowing the exact specs. on his tires.
Machado's suit looks like it has some coating on it... it has sheen. Maybe the dark spots are where a coating has worn off..? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shrug.gif" alt="" />
Those rail channels don't look like the best of ideas. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

How about the fins Slater is holding? They look like FCS fins with different cant combinations a la Futures 3/2 and 3/2/1... Maybe FCS will follow now that pad? Why don't they just hire Curtis and start making good fins?
Coque.
Coque.
Just in case there was any question...
This is the first shot of the board with my original fin configuration. I posted it the same day the pic was taken.
After a week long debate I turned it into the six fin...but this was the original setup.

I agree, very close to the pivot fins from Future.How about the fins Slater is holding? They look like FCS fins with different cant combinations a la Futures 3/2 and 3/2/1... Maybe FCS will follow now that pad? Why don't they just hire Curtis and start making good fins?
