'Old Faithfull' 16-021 pintailed gun

 Here's the first board in the Gun Project: a 9'5" pintail from a 2lb EPS blank.

The planshape with wide point at 50% and an 11" tail

My boards have a simple design goal: to catch and just as importantly to make waves as efficiently and easily as possible. The turning capability is designed with this in mind, so is geared to turning while in trim in any situation. The boards carve turns very easily at any speed and adjust the line effortlessly without time consuming board walking. If you look at some video you'll see that when required the boards turn very smoothly and are agile, all this is done without fuss, so can fly under the radar to the casual observer.

Astute observers like mark CJ Nelson can see it though, he commented recently on the video here that the board ( a 10-5) "turns amazingly well".

During my last two sessions a couple of days ago several people amongst the 40 plus surfers in the water paddled up sepecifically to comment on how well the board goes, others to congratulate me on the article in the current tracks mag or on the recent big dollar sale. I get a lot of attention for the boards from other surfers in the physical world and it's almost all good.
