Haven't had one since I was 16, but it was magic. We'll see how this one goes

6.1 x 18.75 x 2.4

The last detail shot is somewhat color-corrected. The bottom color is actually a dark aqua/teal, and the pinline is golden yellow, dark cadmium, actually. The board is not nearly as green as the unfixed photos make it look.

The dark ovals under the fin bases are reinforcement patches under the lam which really help the fins stay on as long as the board lasts. Since it's my board, I just threw them on with the color tint lam cause it's less trouble than putting them on later. For a customer who requested them, they would go on later and be invisible. I really do the crappiest work on my own. Four glassons are a bitch so sand, BTW, but glassons work best.

Cost to me? $16 for the fins, and I glass 3 or 4 of the bosses boards before he goes to Indo this year, about 1.5 - 2 hour work. It's good to be in the bidness.

Down, boy. You MIGHT get to if you're good.

What I have is a quad:

This is a twinzer:

Very different, no? The twinzer works a great deal like a twinnie, from what I hear and the channel is fairly integral to Mr. Jobson's design. The quad is mosly just a thruster spinoff, with less drag and more speed, but they can be twitchy if not set up properly.

i was wondering what kind of word play you would conjour up on my choice of calling your squiggeler a twinzer.

I have a feeling you will enjoy sharing that board out in the lineup.

is it just me or does that guy look like slap with a hair doo. ???

I just picked up a used Aipa 6'8" double-ender quad. You can ride the top 3rd of the board like a longboard but it's super loose when ridden off the back foot. Great summer board.
