What purpose does that serve? Funky resin work too! to be honest, the "flare" is an illusion as the tips are parallel to the stringer - or flare maybe 1/8" depending on size. The idea is to reduce your tail width much like a wing, without creating drag/release like the wings do. The result is very lively board, with loads of drive and hold. I was skeptical of the concept at first. I saw a Mackie in Glass Love and was puzzled. Then a friend of mine in the UK(Mark Dickinson) made some and I watched him pig dog some solid Hossegor style barrels, and out surf guys oh thrusters on his 6' keel version and had to make one myself. He quit making boards and moved up to the Orkney Islands above Thurso, Scotland and took these with him.. and here's some EPS from his bay a while back.. That picture/sequence of me above is on the 1st one I ever made - miss that board! Its now roaming around Ireland somewhere... anyway, the concept is not mine, and has been around since the 70s. Alan Gibbons makes them, Terry Fitzgerald made some, but the most intriguing ones to me are Rodney Ball's kneeboards. Check out Surf Research Australia for the low down - all you board geeks like me, that is... -------------------- rob RightCoastKook! Post Extras
