I think that drop down refers to extra labour cost for gloss coat / polish around the various fin setups.

I've been on my Octafish the last 2 days in OH Point surf. Holy sheeit, it felt fcuking amazing.
Generating so much speed and then just zipping the entire top of the wave off .....like a long smooth zipper opening, you could literally feel the water molecules being separated by the fin, keels and concaves.

I walked into Byrnes shop in Newcastle a few years ago with the intention of ordering a custom, but the ordering process put me off and I changed my mind.
Basically a few rudimentary questions asked by a guy in the retail shop, written on a form with a drawing of a board. You tell them style of board e.g. gun, fish etc. and the dims you want. No real discussion entered into.
Felt very disconnected.

Does the Octofish work in 2 foot weak peelers? Or does it need a bit of juice?

Mine didn't work that well fullstop.
My MLV is brilliant in the conditions you describe. The bumblebee also worked.

My Mini Merk is just a phenomenal board. Had a longish righthander this morning had a heap of speed up and put it all into a big carve/cuttie on the end section. It just felt so right.
Definitely not an everyday board, don’t want it in junky stuff but in good conditions, it flys.
