INTERPLANETARY MAN
...Do the Reds already have a space station?
-the customer wanted more paddling, better take off, a bit more maneuverability (but not loose), flow instead of pumping and 1 board quiver.
the board: less size; moderate entry rocker, more tail rocker; hip; a bit more pointy nose outline;
the foil keep the bulk forward, to compensate (and that the guy stand up forward) the shape was thinned out near the tail; the bottom is flat in the nose and concave to bonzer channels; the rails are 60/40 s semi rounded with and edge all the way; fairly domed deck;
6 1/2" main fin with a finbox tap jewell; 2 x 4oz Aerialite fiberglass on deck, 1 4oz bottom; speed finish
the paint was designed by the customer
