I would email a few pictures to Shey and tell him whats going on. He'll probably tell you to bring it in so they can look at it. They are very good about helping out (surfers helping surfers).
Depends on you. If you're really sensitive to volume and this is some form of hp shortboard, then go 1L less.
If you're getting a step up or you can't tell the difference between 1L on your PU boards, just get the same.
I cant find the thread about the leash plug positioning, but this one came up in the seach...
So whats the erBB's take on the leash plug in the middle on a twin? I was thinking it might be a good idea since i like a tail pad far back on the tail is usually covers the plug. Is the middle a good solution or does it cause an issue with the leash getting hung up?
Middle plug is fine but you most likely well not want pad on twin unless you put it way up. After half dozen sesssions on mine I removed pad which was about 3/4 to 1" above my plug. You want your back foot over fin cluster and most twins cluster is pretty far forward compared to thruster or quad.
It's been discussed that lots of the more recent twins are placed further back for more control. GG apparently did it 30 years ago on NS. We're all just catching up! It does work
The board still needs to be finish sanded (I snapped a picture before the sander got it).

I just came here to say that I have a 2-board order of Albums that are going to be done tomorrow, and i'm INSANELY STOCKED.
5'3 Lightbender + 5'6" Twinsman RP
5'3 Lightbender + 5'6" Twinsman RP
NICE! What are the dims on those? The lightbender looks really fun. What construction did you get?
they sending beard oil and a manbun clip with that order?
Well, I was worried that the numerous XTR logos would reduce hipster street cred, so yeah, I paid a little extra for those items.
Went parallel carbon because Javier.
Matt recommended the following dims for hobbits who weigh 160+lb at 5'7":
Lightbender
Feet: 5 Feet
Inches: 3
Width: 19.75
Thickness: 2.38"
Twinsman RP
Feet: 5 Feet
Inches: 6
Width: 19.5
Thickness: 2.32"
Javi talked me into the parallel carbon too. I think i like the blue HD stringer better though.
The boards sounds good. A little on the wide side for me (145 @ 5'6 1/2), but I bet they will be just fine!
