$450.00 no fins.
6'0 Skinny fish - Has lotsa depressions but still has plenty of life left. Glass on twin keels, still heaps of foam but thinner all over than a usual fish. Goes like a freakin' rocket. Doesn't appear to be on the CIS website but here is an old video from Merrick:

How's the skinny fish go backhand?
And how's the volume compare to the Wombat?

Re: 5'11 Firewire El Fuego. 6'0 Channel Islands Skinny Fish
Backhand is fine - Never had a spinout, and even I can do big cutbacks and hit the lip on it backhand. The keels are quite deep.
Volume is prob similar to the bear but spread out a bit. I find it a little easier to duckdive than the wombat.
Its 6'0 x 21 1/4 x 2 1/2 - so the skinny refers to the thickness not the width.

i'm interested, but don't hold it for me.
Got to shift some stock of my own.
Be a bit ironic if this section returns to the two of us swapping boards.

Re: 5'11 Firewire El Fuego. 6'0 Channel Islands Skinny Fish
Cool, yeah it would be funny - what are ya trying to shift?
I'm probably looking for a single fin or 2 +1, more refined and rockered than the wombat. Long shot I know - but someone here might have one, anyway If I can sell both boards at the same time I'll be able to get a nice one made up.

Re: 5'11 Firewire El Fuego. 6'0 Channel Islands Skinny Fish
did you sell them Topher?
Or just give up?
I noticed it's not in your sig anymore...
Was originally going to be a thruster because I was a chicken, but then I went for the 2+1.

Noice! What you got coming?
Sold the FW for quite an average price on feeBay - the fish is still down at finbox as far as I know.
