A hard question
What does a hard edge do? Is it about bite and hold OR is it more about release. Been pondering on this for many a year and have my own theories. Sanders and glassers have been under pressure to get them razor sharp for years. Like to hear some thoughts and theories .

Re: BACKYARD SHAPERS
I think drive comes from bottom curve and fins more than rail profile . Rails are more about contributing to how a board behaves into and out of a turn . Hard edge... hmmm.... That gives me an idea!
