Hello Seabreezers, As I'm designing surfboards for fun here I start with this one 5'4" 21" 33 liters for summer conditions coming soon here in SW of France . I design it from a rough file from a friend Seb. So he will watch it from these wiews.
Note the concave centered front from fins between back and front foot, is it Ok for you Seabreezers

Cool

In relation to your concave, imo move the deep part of the concave forward fading to flat or vee through the tail. Or run a deep double concave through the fins.

LL and Mac...you guys crack me up

New shorty on the way soon...need a groveller ...lost mine to my son,so i have to buy another...oh dear
Will be short wide flat something for 1-3ft weak mushy shore break stuff..need some speed down the line when required.
Something on or around 6'0 mark around 21-22 wide with some volume - quad or twin

Something in here should do the job (Oh gratuitous longboard in the photo for those trolling )






Hi, before time digs that thread but might never Mac and Cobra stop kidding Lacey so I rise it up again

Climber , two of those fishes tail and square nose above here get my attention in the search of the new board for my son and younger friends ( of mine ) to surf this new spring and summer coming soon here in SW France. So I design this new board to fit average days of summer conditions. What do you think about, would you have a go on this kind of board.
The goal of this design is to do a very short board and narrow as possible with early take off on 1' 3' wave , speed will do the rest and catch easily any opportunities even on weak wave.
Climber, i can upgrade this design to your body size which I don't know, tell me the literage you need if you please.
Very far shape from Lacey's antic.
