the customer wanted a big board (contemporary thruster) in relation of his biotype
so I used the expanded concept
the basic dim are 6´4´´ * 19 3/4 ´´ (with the WP at 3´´ down) * 2 3/4´´
sports: flat bottom to "V" between fins; flat deck; 60/40 s semi full tucked edged rails to hard; good progressive rocker; big side fins and a bit smaller (in large only) rear one, side fins tilted 6º toed in 1/4´´, 80/20 foil and thinner thickness, I put the rear 1/4´´ forward (cause the back foot) and the side ones more to the rails (to hold. think in the V bottom, the cant and when the surf s up)
more rounded outline in the last 18´´
the shape foil is tapered to the nose and tail, the tail is very thin to the pod (3´´ up)
I d been doing this in all of the boards
-excellent paddling capabilities (area) ; excellent floatation (volume); very good maneuverability for that area (due to the outline; V bottom; tilted fins + rear forward; tail rocker; thinned rails)
fair trimming; good slalom; fair down the line; very good in hold small and medium waves
