Hello Chris , i really appreciate the built you've done on your own board! These ones " made by yourself "are definitely the best boards , we learn so much from our experiences and we love them for ever, don't you think.
I will post more on this project with a bodyboard part on the rear of the board until i decide which of those options i'm going first:

First project is a finless SUP, kind of alaia .
Second project would be a normal board with more flexible tail as i've done before with fins attached stiff to the board, separate of the flexible tail.
What's is your opinion , which one i'm going first ?

Your board and Casso's board looking Thommo's seem to me fantastic looking board and evidently functional.

Cheers, Serge.

I just looked at the Gong Fatal 6'10 video again. I was checking on where the back foot was placed for bottom turns and cutties.
The back foot was a long way forward hardly on the back kicker pad at all.

Yes, thinking the same

One of good thing of shortSUP under 7 ' this is the way that back foot stay in a kind of SB position.

More and more new fun with this board i made . Some pictures of yesterday session. Il like the blue color and the feeling of speed from this SHORTSUP 6'4"







i made the bounce












So much speed to burn before attempting a full cut back



some other, since i get recovered of my shoulder touch the water with my backhand paddle , it's a new feeling of surfing

I like that layback paddle move... almost looks like you are sitting on the paddle, that would be a super style move.

Cheers Chris
