Stole the template right from under Keiths nose. While sitting in the Kibitizing chair talking smack....smell fumes, drinking beer. Made some minor adjustments that would probably piss off Owl Chapman. Added some extra fin boxes..Kind of a swiss army knife of a surfboard..from a fin perspective. Kind of a Bing pipeliner Double ender thingy.
Thanks Keith
#2 EPS, painted, gloss polish with a fake UPOL substitute....bad mistake, using fake UPOL.
Need some input on what fin set up to surf it? i set it up to do everything..single, quad, trifin, 5 fin.
I will shove that big red thing in my box. We will see how fast she goes! I will have to return the some odd 30 or so fins already borrowed from the man. Maybe he will start a fin of the month club?
Try a 7.5 inch Bonzer center fin with a couple of 3" side bites (or training wheels as I used to call them) in the forward boxes. Hold great in anything but really bumpy stuff, paddles like a champ and really squirts a nice bottom turn… Been using this set up in my 8’6" Mellor semi and love it!
What does a 7.5 in bonzer center fin look like? I will have to look through Mr.M's box-o-fins and pur-cure one?
The hip has healed in only could be described as a divine intervention. I was layed out, and thought I was going to be out for sometime. But, as we all know "Better living through chemicals" has it's advantages.
On a side bar I placed some kind of back plaster my sensi told me about...he even gave me a sample package of the stuff. well I put it on my effected area...........the stuff gave me a chemical burn like something out of hell. So much for the holistic oriental medicine crap. But at least it took my mind off the back hip pain.
supposed to be 3 stringers and 1 fin, not one stringer and 3 fins! geez some guys can’t even steal stuff correctly…even when you are there to supervise them.
Since Resinhead screwed this up, he can leave it here in Hawaii with me. I won’t be upset because it doesn’t have 3 stringers. I just happen to have me a 7.5 bonzer fin, and a couple of nice 9" single fins that would fix this thing right up. Keith, you can bring it on your next pass through our neck of the woods.
Too bad it’s a tad long at 9’4.321" and little wide at 21.51243". I’d like 9’4" x 21.5" much better.
Keith,
Is this the template from the triple stringer you let me surf at the boil? You know the one with red glue lines. Man that is an awesome board! I need to come by an ply that template out of your hands and talk about which blank to order…
Resinhead,
What kinda beer did ya get him kibitzing on?

I left 4 beers next to the chair last week...did you drink them?
Keith likes any beer that has to be chewed, and light can not show through. He is a man of substance..and so is his beer.
I used the tactic of the old trampoline trick. I was jumping on the trampoline with the template under my arm. when he wasn't looking I threw the template over the fence...works everytime.
The type of waves that board deserves scares the sheeeet out of me. Although I’m sure Keith would have given it to you I’d like to congratulate you on fleecing him out of his template. Way to go. It feels great to be one up on a buddy and the trampoline thing was brilliant in it’s simplicity. I wouldn’t be surprised,however, if that board ‘goes missing’ before Keith’s next trip to Hawaii.
