I reckon you should have a look at quads and then run either NPJ quartet fins in it, channel islands twad fins, or twinzer fins with the bigs up front.
Reckon it would suit the feeling you're after.

Or just follow Yoda’s advice “Do or Do not, stop fucking overanalysing a twinnie”

Looks choice…..except what’s that cratering around the dimensions. It looks weird.
Put your big boy pants on
I mean, tastebuds? WGAF?

That would be where the guy has scraped some wax off so one may read the dimensions.

yeah….you may be right.
I just assumed the dimensions would be on the bottom.

No, the guy waxed the bottom too. The board was too fast so he wanted to slow it down.

Yeah well twin fins are back in vogue with probably countless shapers having a crack at getting it right. Expect consumers to scratch their heads over it, ask questions, be cautious. Same as happened back in the early 2000s with the resurgence of quad fins, man there were some pig boards around that time, took years before shapers had a handle on it, mckee config or otherwise

Just get a MR super twin then. Nailed the formula and has stuck to it.

It would appear that the Dunning-Kruger effect has moved house from the twin-fin thread to the ebay bargains thread.
