Hi, My friend found this old board we think its some ones project from the 70's
I gave it a go and it goes pretty well , it pretty thin and low volume. The tiny fins at the back corners make it a little stiff to turn
Its has a lot of belly in the front and a dished out deck.

Re: The beast!!
Nice board, how the nose being wider than the tail affects the ride ?

Re: The beast!!
Krusher,
That's a find for sure. It's an interesting design, with that foiled nose and looks like there is thickness in the tail.
Is there anything to suggest who made it?

Re: The beast!!
wide front boards are good for weak waves where you lean on the front of the board to get going. I personally like plenty of width in the front of a board.zensuni wrote:Nice board, how the nose being wider than the tail affects the ride ?

Nothing written on it, its lowish volume i would guess in the 15to 20 L rangebgreen wrote:Krusher,
