Has to be on a classic Single. MP on an MP

Nice JD .... is that all D-Cell rails? Looks like a piece of red-wood stringer in the tail?

^^^^^^^

Woooooo hooooo, again seriously no rush mate, take your time, looking forward to seeing this one.

^^^^^ Hectic. I drove passed not long after it happened but didn't know that Mr Robson lost his arm. That is terrible, the woman should be jailed or get her arm cut off!!!! 0.96 is just plain stupid!! :evil: :evil: :evil: I could rant about Drink Drivers for hours - I have zero tollerance for them a...

Brandons fins...this whole package is still blowing my foofer-valve - I have a similar set in the pipeline for my own board next... Brandon_fns_one_s.jpg JD they look amazing!!! :D Cannot wait to see the board, no rush mate, just getting super stoked. :D Taj rides Firewire for sure and I think he h...

Mate, I would recommend a smaller rear fin than the K2.1 quad set if you want it to turn better. As far as I know, that quad set has M3 rear fins which will still be a similar stiffness as your previous M5/M3 combo. If you want it to turn better I would not only decrease the rake of the front fins,...

To give you an idea of what fin combos I like in a board, I'm an inch shorter than you but the same weight. I have a board very similar in dimensions only with a blended planshape in the tail and a round-tail. In this board I found M5/M3 sized fins way too big and too stiff. They produced a ton of ...

Yeah a bit scarce on the board information sorry. It's a Josh Dowling quad: 6'1 x 19 1/2 x 2 5/8 diamond tail, small bump in the rail near the front fins to bring the tail in a little, flatish tail rocker. I think a more raked fin would suit my style of surfing and would also suit this board. It is ...

Meanwhile, Brandon asked for a rocker shot -

Saaaa-Weeet - That looks epic, just what I wanted. Thanks Josh.

Right I need some help choosing a new set of quad fins. Me 6'0 x 84kgs I have been using: --> PC5 front with M3 center back; --> M5 Front with M3 sides back; --> I've tried H2 medium quad set - felt too small. Am I under finning myself? :? I'm thinking of one of these sets for surfing in 2 to 4ft be...

Hey DV8. I didn't want a full wood deck as I like flex in boards but still wanted some stiffness when I step up to 6ft + so the mix wood d-cell is the best of both worlds. I also want to ride it as a pure single in clean head high + surf. All credit to Josh, I have the whacky idea and he takes what...

Hey DV8. I wanted a widow maker originally but then also wanted a single fin and I wanted to be able to surf it from 4ft to 8ft. So Josh and I got talking and with his guidance we went for a bottom contour of single to double to spiral vee, flatish tail rocker, rounded pin, semi gunish rails, Josh c...

That looks wicked Josh - The excitment is building.

Man oh man am I looking foward to this one.

Thanks!!!

Wooo hooooo looking forward to the first glimpses.

Nice board DV8, your strong endorsement of Josh and his other creations as posted and discussed on here resulted in me pulling the trigger and getting this little smoker. This is my step up for good waves...this little beast will be finding its way to indo ASAP....thanks so much Josh... cant wait t...

Wicked idea Nick.

Josh - keep doing what you do mate. To date you have been the best shaper I have ever dealt with and you actually want to build what I want. :shock: :D I found you through this forum and stoked I did. And like most other people have said alls that you have done is show your boards and let your craft...
