Dropped off Tucker's custom gun-fish in a Santa Clarita parking lot
Met up with Tucker off the 5 freeway on my way to Santa cruz for my friends wedding to get him his custom E-Wing Gun Fish he ordered. I do not believe in models per-se, but this has become one board design that I have believed in enough to have made for some shops. The shape comes from my "DogFish" that I wrote about in the first issue of the Surf Accel Zine. (More of those will be available soon). This design continues to get refined as I shape each one, most notably I've been taking out the beak nose and unnessecary swing weight in front third of the board. I have also been messing with the amount of bottom tuck and how far up the board I am carrying my resin edges. Excited to see Tucker surf this one SB/Ventura & also realized I need to shape myself a new one soon. They are coming out pretty radical.
I have one more set of future base Marlin Bacon custom fins for these if you are interested in ordering one now is a good time!
Heres a little short I made with Malcolm explaining the E-Wing when I interviewed him a few months ago and some first rides I had on Dog Fish
