yeegads , WHAT happened to the tail , mate ??!! [...the dog in the left corner of the photo looks guilty ....did he EAT it ?!]
you could always wide square tail , or rounded-square, it , and make it a "stubby" [a la my 5'7 "orangestub" , on a previous thread here as chipfish61 [IF the photos are still there ] ....unfortunately, " photobucket " is no longer letting me on there* , to look for said photo / upload a new one ....
cheers

[.....doubtless, i'll try again ANOTHER day , hopefully with a more positive / successful result ...chippy without photos is like a surfer with no legs ]
Solo, I love this one! One of the best balanced outline I have seen. How does it work?

Stall has always been known for his eggs. This twin is close to what most Floridians used to ride during the twin fin days. They work unreal if you like Twin fins.
Hey Wout, What are the dimensions and fin layout of your egg? Thickness too Please.That looks very similar to one I had in high school made by M. Hynson.
Is the nose hulled slightly with the rails turned up a la S. Frye rails?
Not really. A true egg bears many similarities to old style longboards in that all
the curves are subtle, soft, and natural. Very close to the ‘hull’ concept, while
completely unrelated to a fish.
Much like the recent fish fad, many boards that are touted as eggs are far from being the real thing. It’s become another catch-word/gimmick used by marketers to sell bogus shapes to the clueless.
Of all the pictures posted so far, these are the only ones I would consider to be true "eggs". Many of them have a nose or tail that's too wide, or the outline just isn't balanced enough.
there you go posting that pic again Girvin... those 2 boards look great!... i just made a template, 5'6", for a similar board. front 2/3 is Lis fish straight from the "surfboard design and construction" book. the back isn't quite as pulled in as yours. i'm thinking i might pull it in some more. still maybe a little thumbier than yours. first i need to draw out a board on the ground and see what it looks like tho... what's the rocker like on those 2?
