Hands down this is the board I looked foward the most to see. I watch the Fish documentary at least once a week. It's soooooo good! 🌊🏄♂️😁🤙🔥
It’s oh so tempting to steal the one we have at the resort, it’s a thing of beauty!
🤣
one of the best designs to ever hit the water.
Absolutely Wolf; the popularity and ability to transcend generations is proof of that!
This is a good video with good photos, and good thorough explanations
such a rad series and comfortable storytelling ambiance!
Please make more of these! Id love to see the ben aipa one, his son is about to be at the forefront of the new surf revolution!
I am originally from San Diego and my friend Douglas Colbern borrowed a fish from Steve lis and let me use it for a day or two in in about 1969 and allI can say is that was a magic surfboard like I have never had before or after... tried to buy it but Doug wouldn't give it up..
Resurgence of the Fish should be credited to Tom Curren in the early 90s Search video on a borrowed Fish at j-bay and later on the Fireball Fish ridden in Sumatra, Indonesia.
Thank you! Great as always
Thank you Jacob!
The fish, by far my favorite shape. Thanks for the cool video, you guys rock! Aloha 🤙🏾
Thank you Kevin, it’s definitely the board I’m most tempted to take out from our collection. That and the Ben Aipa Stinger replica for a big day.
Beautiful idea

Thanks Jimmy!
“Named for it’s fish-like mouth at the double pintail”??? Shouldn’t that be a fish-like tail fin?
