I'm thinking the rocker will need to be much flatter through the guts as a finless board to keep a good long rail in the water at all times. I'm in two minds about just shaving off some thickness in the guts to flatten it or chopping another x inches off the nose and tail again while shortening again. Maybe a bit of both.
I'm in two minds about straightening the plan shape through the middle some more, I think that will help for hold. Rather than being a mix of a mid-length hipster plan shape and a map, I might go - round nose, straight plan shape two thirds down the board, into a gradual pulling in in the last third but still very straight. I'm betting on standing in the middle third of the board the whole time while surfing it.
The lines drawn on the bottom are where the finger channels feeding into deep single concave will go. Concave deepening as the tail goes and will exit very deep out the tail. Two main grip points from the channels, one being around the rear foot placement (which I've estimated by drawing the circle near the rail), and the other being the corner of the rear tail.
Next step will be mowing foam and getting the rocker right. Will wait for some buddies before I do that.
