DescriptionEarly use of twin fin design, with a concave bottom and a scarfed-on spruce nose (an additional piece was added to the length so that more kick could be shaped into the nose of the board). “They were so difficult to build that very few were made and those mostly for himself, which he would later sell or give only to people he liked or deemed worthy.” – John ElwellOn View
