I know I'll be pilloried for this but ... Hypto crypto or Cymatic. Basically something short, that planes quickly, and releases in the pocket.

Re: The Tulla Tub
Not a great intro to the Tub - smoke was really bad yesterday - air quality rated very poor. High pollen count triggers my asthma but it didn't occur to me that smoke would do the same so I didn't take a puffer. Was a bit weazy when I got there but decided to go out anyway and had a terrible session...

Re: The Tulla Tub
Seen some interesting amateur footage. Looks really crowded in the takeoff area with a full crew out. Waves look a lot more warbly too than all the promo stuff. Found this on the Tube. Surfing starts at 8:00 https://youtu.be/teQ2UmsSkWY Does look warbly. Also notice guys bogging top turns further i...

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
I wonder how many shapers use/don't use CAD software? 80% I'd say. There are some who can design in the shaping bay and smash out a shape quicker than a machine or who make handshaping part of their marketing. Machine shapes still take a bit of skill to finish but they do save time and improve repe...

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
That looks great. That guy rips too. A shape like that with the modern foiled performance rails is probably a bit beyond me for my first go. A chunky 70s/80s style rail like an MR is a bit easier and more forgiving of mistakes I reckon. I measured the placement along the stringer from the imaginary...

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
I'm thinking about making a copy of this one:

Different animal but the Aipa looks like 9" up.

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
So like 9" from the tail? Some folks are using this type of fin if the board is too slidey with no tailer:

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
I’ve just started shaping my first board. 5’10 MR inspired twin fin. Cut from a 6’4 burfords MB blank my mate had lying around. Based off a 1980 retro pro but I think I’ll do a vee entry to single to double concave to vee exit instead of full length vee. So far I’ve cut the outline, shaved it close...

Re: The Tulla Tub
I wonder if someone who is not a member of the surf industrial complex will ever be allowed to surf this place?Nick Carroll wrote: ↑Sun Dec 08, 2019 9:57 amI was invited to go to URBSRF's pool in Melbourne on Monday!
But I can't because I'll be in Hawaii. Sorry everyone you'll just have to wait for some future critical analysis.

Re: The Tulla Tub
Size is a good three feet on take off grading down slightly after about 50 metres. Urbn surf are saying there will be three distinct waves: experts , intermediates and beginners, but apart from the proper wave I could only see a short crumbly reform about 1- 2 ft high further down the pool. https:/...
