Advanced Fish

5' TO 6'6"

This board is a highly refined and updated version of one of the most functional designs ever created.  I start with the Steve Lis platform and delete some of the overall curve, straightening the outline in front of the back foot and pulling the curve in more dramatically behind the fins and back foot. This makes it both looser and faster at the same time.  It gets souped up bottom with a modern single to double concave within the panel vee. Finally, the Advanced Fish is available with just about any fin combination you could want, though my personal favourite is the Twinzer. This makes a fantastic Quad or 5 fin convertible.

This model is available in your choice of:

Materials:

Bryan uses Burford Blanks exclusively, Silmar Polyester resin, and top quality fibreglass including Volan and “S” cloth. This construction allows for a board which can last 20+ years if looked after properly. This is the recommended build, although EPS/Epoxy builds are possible if flotation is your primary concern.
