So here’s the deal - I have this beautifully built Long (quad) Fish ala Frye via CC. Ive had this board for a little while now - I dont surf it all that often- kind of a special day board. when i first got it I surfed some chest to hh swell at Swami’s. insane down the line speed. seemed like a good wave for this shape. I brought it back to Rhode Island for good size clean hurricane surf - thus the “i dont surf it all that often” comment. so here is the deal because of its speed I find myself out running the wave. cutting back is real a chore - the quads make it super tracky. what I have been thinking of is converting it to a single (flex fin) to make it more responsive.
So -
-
is this a stoooopid idea?
-
How difficult is this sort of job? and will it f’up the resin work removing the quads?
-
Are the bottom contours which are intended for a quad set up, single into dble -moderate V suitable for a single?
what else should I consider - 3 fin?
thanks
