    This is a retro design from the early 80's. Reducing the thrust/drag fin is great setup, look at what MR has been riding for 20 years.

      Similar, MR’s boards didn’t have the standard shortboard template his were wide up frontman’s always swallow tails. Still stoked to see them coming back 🤙🏼

      @@matthewwillis4892 yes I know. Sorry I should’ve been more clear, when I was talking about Mark Richards board I was just simply saying his board was pretty much a true fish shape but had the nice standup fins like Kelly has now, And Kelly has more of a true Shortboard shape with the standup fins in a little trailer which works so fun in all kinds of surf. See you in the water brother

      @@BobbyJetty1502 True fish shapes? The original fishes were shaped out of a longboard blank, very flat rocker, or broken longboard reshapes, with noses around 17 inches MR noses are around 13inches and contemporary s.b .noses are around 11 inches. Those are the numbers. Like I said these shapes have been around since the early 80s. I was there and shaped the boards.There isn't much new under the sun just old ideas brought to a new generation.
      Cheers !

    Glad to see Kelly experimenting with twins. However, here in San Diego especially Ocean Beach/Sunset Cliffs shapers like…
    George Gull,Joe Ghio(Plus one Surfboards) Larry Mabile(Third Word Exotic) LaJollas Tim Bessel Surfboards Hank Warner(Hot Buttered Surfboards) and of course Steve Lis. These shapers have been making boards like this one Kelly is showing us some since the 1970’s. Not standard Keel fin twins but much more MR wide base taller stiffer fins on short board templates. Just stoked to see a resurgence of these boards.

    For waves under head high, ALWAYS use a smaller trailer fin. For FCS use the GX.

    I'd still rather surf like Kelly than basically any other surfer in the world. I also still think he looks faster that almost any other surfer with a few exceptions, and obviously on a twin + 1 he's even faster.
