Heart problem.

Quite possibly ... but it was an odd one, not your run of the mill issue.

"THE RASTA TORUS TWIN WAS FIRST DESIGNED IN 2009 BY GARY MCNEILL AND PRO SURFER DAVE RASTOVICH. IT FEATURES A FULL LENGTH ‘TORUS’ CHANNEL SITTING INSIDE A SINGLE CONCAVE WHICH PROVIDES HOLD IN HOLLOW SECTIONS AND HELPS YOU GENERATE SPEED WHEN PUMPING WITH YOUR FRONT FOOT. BECAUSE OF THIS CHANNEL, THE RTT HAS MORE CONTROL THAN YOUR TRADITIONAL TWIN FIN AND DUE TO THE ABSENCE OF DRAG FROM THE CENTRE FIN CAN GENERATE SPEED QUICKER THAN YOUR THRUSTER.
FOR THIS MODEL I RECOMMEND MY UPRIGHT FINS FOR PEAKY BEACHBREAKS. IF YOU’RE SURFING LONGER SLOW POINTS OR YOU’RE A BIGGER SURFER OR CHANGING OVER FROM A THRUSTER I’D SUGGEST YOU GO TO THE KEEL FINS."
Bit small for you??

Without being overly concerned with volume, 35 litres is about feasible minimum I’d go for

Looks sick but it's not a twin
Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
If thats not a twin fin, then neither are the the MR Super Twins ... the rear fin is an optional stabiliser.

My favourite surfboard colours, heat delaminated papal purple and sun blister black
Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
I agree it's not a twin, my post a little while back was bait that noone bit.
Both look like fun options.

Its amazing how many surfers don't understand even the basic design principles of surfboards ... this volume phenomenon is a classic example, where they bang on about how many litres they require, but are quite clueless on where the foam should actually be.

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
Volume is a basic design principle.

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
Volume is the result of the basic design principles ... its a displacement measurement, nothing more.

Re: Twin fins as go-to boards
That's inane.
A rolled vs a flat deck, for example, is a direct result of a decision about volume. As is a beak nose.
