This is Byron's first ever surfboard, he's 8 years old and his Grandfather has introduced him to longboard surfing via his very big longboard..... Byrons board is 7 foot 4 inches by 20 1/2 inch wide and 2 1/2 inches thick. She is only roughed out and the Lime green board ( an older board I made 3 years ago) will be the colour that Byron has chosen , and I must say ,Good choice!
Like art there are many different styles with fins, upright to leaned back , area to nearly none...and these all perform ,but not for everyone . Sometimes the amount of twist and flex, positioning and depth play a very important part with your boards performance...if you don't get it right a well shaped board can be a dog......If you want a custom made precisionally and professionally foiled fin ,contact me and I'll make to order and help you with placement on 0404892397.....I'll keep outlying this Fin section with a bit of history and hdrodynamics info, remember..... without a good rudder a ship is useless....
