Re: Twin fins as go-to boards

I want to try a 2+1 gun.
Widowmaker is what A Kidman and Dave parmenter call em.
Reckon that set up would come in to its element as a semi-gun, with channels.

Re: Just general surfing stuff

I suppose it's more for those times coming in on the rocks and you get snagged while waves are washing you so it's easier to take off than unsnag it.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
