Conditions call for 2-4ft (faces) could be low tide, high tide deep or shallow, not really sure how it will look; what board do you bring?

Personally, I was trying for the mini sim but found the nautilus to consistently be my go to.

What is your not necessarily the best board but rarely the wrong board?

Bord looks like a real good time I am not a fish guy but that shape looks fun:waving: What are her dims?
I gotta find a better outline shot. I would not consider it a fish. I think it’s 5’5 19 3/4 2 5/8 coming in a tad over 30L. Does not at all feel 2 5/8 and feels smaller than it is. Has super foiled rails like my aipa HP twin had and similar rocket. It’s labeled as his “retro fish” but it looks more pulled in and HP to me. 70C64B39-9B9D-4A69-B76B-6D3D92E2003B.jpeg

Beaut very nice like outline for modern fish and Aipa foils rails real nice yet seems to keep meat in board:shaka: My gbuzz has sk8 deck to distribute meat of 2-5/8" rails and still chunky but feels nice under the feet.
