Those boards are shaped by Larry Mabile. I saw some boards on the web site that looked really fun. Has anyone tried the twinser fish as opposed to the regular twin keel finned fish? I have been concidering ordering one of Larrys shapes/retro fish and was compelled by the twinser aspect (thinking it would have the speed enhansing benefits of the canard fins)although I will probobly try the wooden keel fin to experience a truer retro feel (I have not tried a true fish, closest being a c-5 Pirahna). Just wondering if anyone has any feed back.

Larry Mabile shapes the traditional fish and the twinzer fish. I’ve ridden a Mabile twinzer fish for the last four years in 1 to 6 foot surf. No other board i’ve ridden comes close to the speed and looseness of these boards, and yes I have a Mabile keel fin fish. I feel the twinzer fish is faster and looser and a better design. I’m selling an extra 6’10" 17x22x17x3 twinzer fish in very good condition for $220.00. Surfwax
